How did medieval Arab hospitals treat patients from different religious and social groups?

Medieval Arab hospitals, such as those established in major centers like Baghdad, Damascus, and Córdoba, were notable for their inclusive approach to patient care. These institutions admitted patients regardless of their religious belief, race, or social order.1

This commitment to universal care reflected the broader intellectual and medical environment of the Muslim empire, where medical practice was not restricted to a single group. Physicians within the empire were drawn from diverse backgrounds, including Muslims, Jews, and Christians, all of whom contributed to the era's significant medical advancements.2
