Besides decree, one must be astonished to know that Qamara is invented by a Muslim Scientist.

"he ancient Greeks thought our eyes emitted rays, like a laser, which enabled us to see. The first person to realise that light enters the eye, rather than leaving it, was the 10th-century Muslim mathematician,

astronomer and physicist Ibn al-Haitham. He invented the first pin-hole camera after noticing the way light came through a hole in window shutters. The smaller the hole, the better the picture, he worked out, and set up the first Camera Obscura (from the Arab word qamara for a dark or private room). He is also credited with being the first man to shift physics from a philosophical activity to an experimental one."

1001 Inventions is also beneficial in this regards to find out more exploration by Muslim Scientist during ages called "dark" in the west:

Camera is a Chinese Invention By Mozi

The forerunner to the photographic camera was the camera obscura.[SUP][8][/SUP] In the fifth century B.C., the Chinese philosopher Mo Ti noted that a pinhole can form an inverted and focused image, when light passes through the hole and into a dark area.[SUP][9][/SUP] Mo Ti is the first recorded person to have exploited this phenomenon to trace the inverted image to create a picture.[SUP][10][/SUP] Writing in the fourth century B.C., Aristotlealso mentioned this principle.[SUP][11][/SUP] He described observing a partial solar eclipse in 330 B.C. by seeing the image of the Sun projected through the small spaces between the leaves of a tree.[SUP][12][/SUP] In the tenth century, the Arabic scholar Ibn al-Haytham (Alhazen) also wrote about observing a solar eclipse through a pinhole,[SUP][13][/SUP] and he described how a sharper image could be produced by making the opening of the pinhole smaller.[SUP][12][/SUP] English philosopher Roger Bacon wrote about these optical principles in his 1267 treatise Perspectiva.[SUP][12][/SUP] By the fifteenth century, artists and scientists were using this phenomenon to make observations. Originally, an observer had to enter an actual room, in which a pinhole was made on one wall. On the opposite wall, the observer would view the inverted image of the outside.[SUP][14][/SUP] The name camera obscura, Latin for "dark room", derives from this early implementation of the optical phenomenon.[SUP][15][/SUP] The term was first coined by mathematician and astronomer Johannes Kepler in his Ad Vitellionem paralipomena of 1604.[SUP][16][/SUP]
The Italian scientist Giambattista della Porta described the camera obscura in detail in his 1558 work Magia Naturalis, and specifically suggested that an artist could project a camera obscura's images onto paper, and trace the outlines.[SUP][17][/SUP] The camera obscura was popular as an aid for drawing and painting from the 1600s to the 1800s.[SUP][18][/SUP] Portable set-ups were devised in the 17th century. For example, Kepler had built a portable tent, and outfitted the camera obscura with a lens by 1620.[SUP][19][/SUP][SUP][20][/SUP] This set-up remained popular up to the early 1800s.[SUP][21][/SUP] The scientist Robert Hooke presented a paper in 1694 to the Royal Society, in which he described a portable camera obscura. It was a cone-shaped box which fit onto the head and shoulders of its user.[SUP][22][/SUP] A hand-held device with a mirror reflex mechanism was first proposed by Johann Zahn in 1685, a design that would later be used in photographic cameras.[SUP][23][/SUP]
