The Eastern Romans had it too, as it never ceased to exist in the East. However, I don't think the original Muslim Arabs had any of those technologies, the states they conquered did. (Roman and Persian)

Conquering something doesn't mean you automatically get to keep it. Systems need to be maintained.
