"It is wholly unfair to attribute the efflorescence of European culture during the Renaissance period to the influence of Christianity. It was mainly the product of the forces released by the Muhammadan Dispensation." (From a letter written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer, April 27, 1936; Lights of Guidance, 2nd edition p. 495)
Is there modern scholarship with evidence to back this up?
