Khyber Pakhtunkhwa General Science 6
One credit — "A muslim scientist Al-Haithem invented the pinhole [camera]" (general-science-6-en · PAGE 120). Nothing else.
Punjab did not delete Muslim-scientist content — it moved it out of science
Punjab's six science books and eight readers contain no Muslim-scientist material at all, where Sindh and KP carry it across seven or eight books each. But the strand survives in Punjab's History 7, in a section on the Golden Age of Islam. It changed subject, not curriculum.
Punjab's six science books and eight readers carry no Muslim-scientist material at all, where KP and Sindh spread it across seven or eight books each: KP's General Science 6 credits “A muslim scientist Al-Haithem invented the pinhole camera” (p. 120), its Chemistry 9 gives pp. 6–8 to the “Muslim Period 600–1600 AD”, and Sindh's Social Studies 7 sets a poster activity on Muslim scientists (p. 34). But Punjab has not dropped the strand — it moved. The material survives in History 7, inside a section on the Golden Age of Islam. It changed subject, not curriculum, and this corrects an earlier reading by this project that Punjab had abandoned it.
What the books say
Each entry below is the catalogue's own record for that book on that
axis, printed as it stands. Pages marked PDF p. are counted from the first page of the scanned file, which is how most of this corpus was read; pages marked printed p. are the folio printed on the paper. The two differ by however many unnumbered cover leaves a volume carries, so the label matters when you go to check.
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chemistry 9
Muslim Period 600–1600 AD section — "The period of Muslims is generally called the period of 'Al-Chemists' in the history of chemistry" (chemistry-9-en · PAGE 7), pp.6–8. No scripture.
1 of 21 chapters; a "Muslim Scientists" section with a poster activity — "Make a poster presentation on the contribution of Muslim scientists" · PAGE 34 — and a Muslim art/architecture prompt · PAGE 25; otherwise even-handed on Diwali, Holi, Baisakhi, Eid, Onam and Christmas · PAGE 79.
Limits
This corrects an earlier reading in this project that Punjab had dropped the strand outright.
Boards and confidence

Confidence reflects the evidence tier this rests on. High means native or English-medium text verified by exact string match; medium means it depends partly on Urdu-medium material read at theme grade, or on an absence. See the method.

Challenge this finding
This is a claim about a printed book, so it is checkable, and it should be checked. If the citation is wrong, the edition is misidentified, the passage is quoted unfairly, or the finding does not survive its own evidence, that is worth reporting and it will be acted on whether or not the correction is convenient for the argument. Corrections are logged publicly in the corrections log; this applies fully to the boards themselves.
