أسهمت شعوب الأرض التي دخلت الإسلام في بناء الحضارة الإسلامية، وکانت مصر من أوفر هذه البيئات إسهاماً، وقد شهد النصف الأخير من القرن الثالث الهجري بداية فصل جديد في تاريخ مصر الإسلامية؛ تمثل بقيام الدولة الطولونية، التي شکلت منطلقاً لبداية الازدهار في تاريخ حضارة مصر. وهناک عدد من العوامل التي کان لها دور في إبراز هذه الحضارة، منها: التأخر الحضاري الذي سبق قيام الدولة الطولونية، فقد شمل ذلک نواحي الحياة کلها، بسبب سياسة العباسيين، في تغيير الولاة باستمرار؛ خوفاً من استقلالهم بالبلاد. تمکن أحمد بن طولون من القضاء على الثورات في مصر، وبناء جيش قوي، وشهدت البلاد استقراراً وتطوراً، واستقلالاً ذاتياً، وصاحب ذلک تطور في الحياة الحضارية؛ لأن ابن طولون حرص على القيام بإنجازات حضارية تميز عهده؛ لتثبيت سلطانه، وأن يبدو البلاط الطولوني في حياته في مستوى لا يقل عن مستوى البلاط الخلافي. أثبت ابن طولون أنه کان نموذجاً للحاکم المثالي، من حيث تبني الإصلاح والعدل، والاعتناء بشؤون دولته، فلم تشغله طموحاته في زيادة رقعة دولته عن الاهتمام بجوانب الإصلاح، ومذا يحقق الحياة الکريمة لرعيته؛ ولذا اتسم عهده بأنه عهد سلام شامل، ورخاء، وحضارة، وعمران، وفنون، وخلَّف ابن طولون آثاراً رائعة تجسد عصره، ولا يزال بعضها باقياً إلى يومنا هذا.              The Islamic Civilization is a great edifice where all the people of the earth contributed in building it.
