<option weight="1">{{Pictorial-Islam|1=Arab Transmission of the Classics|2=[[File:SophoclesTurk.gif|190px|link=Arab Transmission of the Classics]]|3=The Arab transmission of the classics is a common and persistent myth that Arabic commentators such as Avicenna and Averroes 'saved' the work of Aristotle and other Greek philosophers from destruction. According to the myth, these works would otherwise have perished in the long European dark age between fifth and the tenth centuries. Thus the versions of Aristotle used in the West were translations from the Arabic, which came from the South West of Europe in the reconquest of Spain from the Muslims during the twelve and thirteenth centuries.
This is incorrect. It was actually the Byzantines in the East who saved the ancient learning of the Greeks in the original language, and the first Latin texts to be used were translation from the Greek, in the 12th century, rather than, in most cases, the Arabic, which were only used in default of these.

Priapism is a potentially painful medical condition, in which the erect penis or clitoris does not return to its flaccid state, despite the absence of both physical and psychological stimulation, within four hours. The name comes from the Greek god Priapus, a fertility god often represented with a disproportionately large and permanent erection. According to Islamic scripture, all Muslim males that are admitted to Paradise will technically suffer from priapisms (i.e. they "will have an ever-erect penis"). And the Muslim geographer and historian Abu al-Fida (1273 – 1331 AD) relates that Prophet Muhammad suffered from a death erection (a post-mortem erection, technically a priapism). (read more)
