Best Answer

"Muslims" is not the correct word. "Arab" is. Whether they happened to be Muslim or not, Arab Civilization in the middle ages was the most highly advanced of the time, being the keepers of the ancient and lost knowledge of Greece and Rome, before Christian Superstition set progress back in Europe many, many centuries.

But to answer your question, the Arabs gave us their system of numerals, and also developed the concept of zero.

But who knows what the future may bring? the possibility of even one thought about time repeating itself over and over(like a skipping CD) perfectly would be improbable, although the idea of a time loop existing in different periods of mankind and civilization, repeated, would be a better explanation of the concept, it undoubtedly would not be the only possibility.
