The Prophet. Peace be upon him. Dug a trench in Madinah when the pagans of Makkah invaded Madinah with a big force and trench was the latest technology of its time. Horses were one of the leading technologies of the time. What is technology? It is something that gives you leverage and the horse moves way faster than a person, thus bringing leverage.
This shows us the importance of horse riding and motorsports. Today, technology is based on machines, among them the wheel, Allah says in the Quran, meaning Allah made the men from clay, like pottery and pottery, is made on a wheel. So is the mill or the lathe machine. The machine which makes all the other machines
