The second school of thought ended up winning in the Muslim world because it exalted the Will of God as ultimate and without competition.

Not really. This is a complex philosophical and religious topic, and it is not as black and white as was presented in your post. There is no single view that dominates the Islamic landscape as you mentioned.

I'm sure you're right. As I said, I'm referring to my memories of an interview. That being said, do you think such views of causality have affected scientific progress in the Muslim world at all?
