Ibn Khaldun’s (1332 - 1395) explanation: "Who says in his Prolegomena that the Arabs received science from the Indians, as well as their numerals and calculation methods, when a group of erudite Indian scholars came to the court of the caliph al-Mansur in year 156 of the Hegira (776 CE). "

Ibn Khaldun is universally recognized as the founder and father of Sociology and Sciences of History. He is best known for his famous 'Muqaddimah,' (Prolegomena). Abd al-Rahman Ibn Mohammad, generally known as Ibn Khaldun after a remote ancestor, was born in Tunis in 732 A.H. (1332 C.E.) to an upper class family that had migrated from Seville in Muslim Spain. His ancestors were Yemenite Arabs who settled in Spain in the very beginning of Muslim rule in the eighth century.

Quranic verses:
https://quran.com/en/al-baqarah/32
They replied, “Glory be to You! We have no knowledge except what You have taught us. You are truly the All-Knowing, All-Wise.”

"You are the BEST nation produced
[as an EXAMPLE] for mankind.
enjoin what is right and forbid
what is wrong and believe in Allah.
If only the People of the Scripture
had believed, it would have been
BETTER for them. Among them are believers,
but most of them are defiantly disobedient."
https://quran.com/3:110

“They are the ones who follow the
Messenger, the unlettered Prophet,
whose description they find in their
Torah and the Gospel. He commands
them to do good and forbids them from evil,
permits for them what is lawful and forbids to
them what is impure, and relieves them from their burdens
and the shackles that bound them.
Only those who believe in him,
honour and support him, and follow the
light sent down to him will be successful.”
https://quran.com/en/al-araf/157

“Say, O Prophet, “O humanity!
I am Allah’s Messenger to you all.
To Him alone belongs the
kingdom of the heavens and the earth.
There is no god worthy of worship except Him.
He gives life and causes death.”
So believe in Allah and His Messenger,
the unlettered Prophet,
who believes in Allah and His revelations.
And follow him, so you may be rightly guided.”
https://quran.com/en/al-araf/158

Narrated Ibn `Umar:
The Prophet said,
"We ARE an illiterate nation;
we NEITHER write, nor know accounts.
The month is like this and this,
i.e. sometimes of 29 days
and sometimes of thirty days."

https://quran.com/98/6
Indeed, those who disbelieve from the People of the Book and the polytheists will be in the Fire of Hell, to stay there forever. They are the worst of ˹all˺ beings.

https://quran.com/en/ali-imran/85
Whoever seeks a way other than Islam,1 it will never be accepted from them, and in the Hereafter they will be among the losers

https://quran.com/en/an-nisa/56
Surely those who reject Our signs, We will cast them into the Fire. Whenever their skin is burnt completely, We will replace it so they will ˹constantly˺ taste the punishment. Indeed, Allah is Almighty, All-Wise.

Ronald Reagan once cited him. Mark Zuckerberg picked his great work as one of his book club choices. And the British historian Arnold Toynbee described it “as undoubtedly the greatest work of its kind that has ever yet been created by any mind in any time or place.” These are pretty unusual encomia for a 14th-century North African historian—but then Ibn Khaldun was an unusually gifted man. His Muqaddimah is a book-length introduction—or prolegomena—to a much longer history of the world

Unfortunately fifteen countries including largely populated countries of Bangladesh, Pakistan
and Nigeria still lag behind in literacy
(Less than 62%). However, compared to the literacy Data of 1980
(Aerage 30%), 2018 data is highly satisfactory.
