Although his father al-Hakam ibn Abi al-`As had accepted Islam at the time of the fall of Mecca but his behaviour and activities were very painful to the Prophet.
Amir al-mu'minin said about Marwan ibn al-Hakam at Basrah.
Consequently, the Prophet cursed him and his descendants and said, "Woe will befall my people from the progeny of this man." At last in view of his increasing intrigues the Prophet externed him from Medina towards the valley of Wajj (in Ta'if) and Marwan also went with him.

 Umayyad Spain
The caliphate of al-Hakam II (961-976) marked the high point of Islamic civilization in Muslim Spain (initiated by the exiled Umayyad caliph Abd al-Rahman in 756).

When Øisdai became attached to al-Hakam II, gaining his highest regard for professional ability, his great talent, and his culture, he was able to procure through him the works of the Jews in the East which he desired.
The Jewish physician Øasdai Ibn Shaprut (905-975) was an official in the court of the Umayyad Caliph of Spain based in Córdoba, serving as a diplomatic representative for the Caliphs Abd al-Raøman III and al-Hakam II.

 ABU AL-QASIM AL-ZAHRAVI
Al-Zahravi was the inventor of several surgical instruments, of which three are notable: (i) an instrument for internal examination of the ear, (ii) an instrument for internal inspection of the urethra, and (iii) and instrument for applying or removing foreign bodies from the throat.
Contrary to the view that the Muslims fought shy of surgery, Al-Zahravi's Al-Tasrif provided a monumental collection for this branch of applied science.
He specialized in curing disease by cauterization and applied the technique to as many as 50 different operations.
