First of all, the ancient culture can be preserved and spread. In the long-term turmoil before and after the demise of the Western Roman Empire, many classic works of Greece and Rome were destroyed and lost, and some of them spread to the Arab Empire through Byzantium. Arab scholars have studied them carefully and translated many ancient works into Arabic. Western Europeans later re-recognized the cultural achievements of Greece and Rome through Arabic translation.

Second, Arabs have traveled all over Asia, Europe and Africa, becoming the medium of cultural exchange between the East and the West. They introduced the cultural achievements of ancient India and China to the west. It also spread Arab scientific achievements and Islam to the East.

Third, Arabs are not only good at absorbing other cultures, but also developing on the basis of learning, and have made great achievements in mathematics, astronomy, medicine, physics, chemistry, architecture, literature and so on. Arabs translated Aristotle's major works into Arabic, such as physics, ethics and instrumentalism. They also translated Plato's Republic, Mathematician Euclid's Elements of Geometry (at the turn of the 4th and 3rd centuries BC) and Archimedes (287-2 12 BC).
