For God's sake, in the last 1400 years, were the Umayyads, Abbasids, Rashiduns, Ottomans etc. "backward" at their time? No, they were the superpowers of that time. And remember, Islam started from Nothing - only one man for whom God made his messenger. From that barbaric pre-Islamic Arab society.
Rather than attacking Islam, realize that most Islamic countries are backward because they do not follow what the Quran tells them to. They misinterpret and mis-translate Quranic verses to 'prove' women must cover head to toe, cannot work, cannot go to school... endless. Secularism, religious tolerance, intelligence, science, technology, progress, wealth,education, women's rights, democracy etc. are things which are encouraged in the Quran. Alas! only if they stopped listening to these Mullahs and read the Quran themselves!
