This article highlights the scientific legacy of the great scholar Abu Abdullah Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi, particularly his invaluable contribution to the promotion of the decimal number system. The author analyzes al-Khwarizmi’s scientific work in developing the concepts of algebra, arithmetic, algorithms, and the number zero. It is substantiated that through his work "The Book of Hindu Calculation", the decimal system and the digit zero entered the Islamic world and subsequently influenced European science. The article also explores, based on scientific sources, how al-Khwarizmi's works impacted the development of European science. Furthermore, it emphasizes the relevance of al-Khwarizmi’s legacy in the context of today’s information technology.
