I want to know the answer to the following question:
What do scholars believe is the reason for similarities between Islamic and European schools?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Daniel concludes that resemblances in method had more to with the two religions having "common problems: to reconcile the conflicting statements of their own authorities, and to safeguard the data of revelation from the impact of Greek philosophy"; thus Christian scholasticism and similar Arab concepts should be viewed in terms of a parallel occurrence, not of the transmission of ideas from one to the other, a view shared by Hugh Kennedy.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
