It depends on the Art form.

Since Islam prohibits most forms of painting and sculpture, the art in these fields was not enhanced by Muslims. However, Muslims contributed quite strongly to architecture, perfecting domes and minarets, mosaic-ed water fountains, lattice-work, and stone carving. Muslims also perfected the art of calligraphy using Qur'anic verses to "sketch" animals, people, and scenery. Probably the greatest artistic contribution of the Muslims was poetry and music. The Rubiyat of Omar Khayyam are among the greatest poetic works in the world. Muslims were responsible for the development of the guitar, the Zither, and the Flute, among many other musical instruments. They also began to create Music Theory which demonstrates how different notes can be played together harmoniously or dis-harmoniously.
