    IBN AL-NAFIS
    (1213-1288 A.D.)
    Ala-al-Din Abu al-Hasan Ali Ibn Abi al-Hazm al-Qarshi al- Damashqi al-Misri was born in 607 A.H. of Damascus. He was educated at the Medical College-cum-Hospital founded by Nur al- Din Zangi. In medicine his teacher was Muhaththab al-Din Abd al- Rahim. Apart from medicine, Ibn al-Nafis learnt jurisprudence, literature and theology. He thus became a renowned expert on Shafi'i School of Jurisprudence as well as a reputed physician. After acquiring his expertise in medicine and jurisprudence, he moved to Cairo where he was appointed as the Principal at the famous Nasri Hospital. Here he imparted training to a large number of medical specialists, including Ibn al-Quff al-Masihi, the famous surgeon. He also served at the Mansuriya School at Cairo. When he died in 678 A.H. he donated his house, library and clinic to the Mansuriya Hospital. His major contribution lies in medicine. His approach comprised writing detailed commentaries on early works, critically evaluating them and adding his own original contribution. Hlis major original contribution of great significance was his discovery of the blood's circulatory system, which was re-discovered by modern science after a lapse of three centuries. He was the first to correctly describe the constitution of the lungs and gave a description of the bronchi and the interaction between the human body's vessels for air and blood. Also, he elaborated the function of the coronary arteries as feeding the cardiac muscle.

Hunayn became skilled in languages as a young man, in particular learning Arabic at Basra and also learning Syriac. To continue his education Hunayn went to Baghdad to study medicine under the leading teacher of the time. However, after falling out with this teacher, Hunayn left Baghdad and, probably during a period in Alexandria, became an expert in the Greek language.

It covered anatomical and pathological terms and concepts, medicinal substances, and prominent physicians, with all the entries arranged alphabetically. NLM has one copy of this comprephesive medical dictionary (MS. A6). Al-Harawi also wrote a lexicon titled Jawahir al-lughah , in three chapters: the first explaining terminology for parts of the body (in alphabetical order), the second on the names of simple and compound drugs (also in alphabetical order), and the third names of diseases, presented in order from head to toe according to their locations.

    by Ibn Abi Sadiq (d. after 1068/460 H)
    The most productive translator of Greek medical and scientific treatises into Arabic was Hunayn ibn Ishaq, who died in 873 or 877 (260 ot 264 H). Known to Europeans as Johannitius, Hunayn also composed a number of original medical writings, including the influential Questions on Medicine for Beginners ). A number of commentaries were written on Hunayn's popular introduction to medicine, one of the most important being that by Ibn Abi Sadiq, who died shortly after 1068/460 H. NLM has a copy of the commentary by Ibn Abi Sadiq on Hunayn's Questions on Medicine for Beginners . It is an important copy because of its apparent age (thirteenth-century). For other copies of the commentary by Ibn Abi Sadiq, see Dietrich, Medicinalia , p. 43-4 no. 15; Ullmann, Medizin , p. 160 note 4; GAL vol. 1 p. 484 (638) and GAL-S vol. 1, p. 886-7; and Yale, Beineke Library MS. 1506. The copy in the Bodleian Library, Oxford, (MS. Marsh 98) was copied in 1235/639H and was used for teaching purposes by a famous physician Muwaffaq al-Din Ya'qub al-Samiri (d. 1281), for it has an ijazah signed by him certifying that a pupil of his named Amin al-Dawlah Tadrus ibn Nasr ibn Malik studied and mastered its contents.

    MOHAMMAD IBN ZAKARIYA AL-RAZI
    (864-930 A.D.)
    Abu Bakr Mohammad Ibn Zakariya al-Razi (864-930 A.D.) was born at Ray, Iran. Initially, he was interested in music but later on he learnt medicine, mathematics, astronomy, chemistry and philosophy from a student of Hunayn Ibn Ishaq, who was well versed in the ancient Greek, Persian and Indian systems of medicine and other subjects. He also studied under Ali Ibn Rabban. The practical experience gained at the well-known Muqtadari Hospital helped him in his chosen profession of medicine. At an early age he gained eminence as an expert in medicine and alchemy, so that patients and students flocked to him from distant parts of Asia. He was first placed in-charge of the first Royal Hospital at Ray, from where he soon moved to a similar position in Baghdad where he remained the head of its famous Muqtadari Hospital for along time. He moved from time to time to various cities, specially between Ray and Baghdad, but finally returned to Ray, where he died around 930 A.D. His name is commemorated in the Razi Institute near Tehran. Razi was a Hakim, an alchemist and a philosopher. In medicine, his contribution was so significant that it can only be compared to that of Ibn Sina. Some of his works in medicine e.g.

    Thabit ibn Qurra was a native of Harran and a member of the Sabian sect. The Sabian religious sect were star worshippers from Harran often confused with the Mandaeans (as they are in [1]). Of course being worshipers of the stars meant that there was strong motivation for the study of astronomy and the sect produced many quality astronomers and mathematicians. The sect, with strong Greek connections, had in earlier times adopted Greek culture, and it was common for members to speak Greek although after the conquest of the Sabians by Islam, they became Arabic speakers. There was another language spoken in southeastern Turkey, namely Syriac, which was based on the East Aramaic dialect of Edessa. This language was Thabit ibn Qurra's native language, but he was fluent in both Greek and Arabic. Some accounts say that Thabit was a money changer as a young man. This is quite possible but some historians do not agree. Certainly he inherited a large family fortune and must have come from a family of high standing in the community.

    HUNAYN IBN ISHAQ Lived AD 809-873. Was a Nestorian Christian during the glory years of the Abbasid Caliphate in Iraq. He studied Greek and became known among the Arabs as the "Sheikh of the translators." He translated the Septuagint, Hippocrates, some of Plato and Aristotle, and other Greek works into Arabic, and almost all of Galen's scientific output into Syriac and Arabic. He was also a great doctor and the Caliph al-Mutawakkil appointed him as his private physician. The Caliph once offered him a large reward to concoct a poison for an enemy, but Hunayn refused and so was thrown into prison for a year. When brought again before the Caliph and threatened with death his reply was, "I have skill only in what is beneficial, and naught else." The Caliph then claimed to be only testing his integrity, and then asked him what prevented him from preparing the deadly poison. Hunayn replied: Two things: my religion and my profession. My religion decrees that we should do good even to our enemies, how much more to our friends. And my profession is instituted for the benefit of humanity and limited to their relief and cure. Besides every physician is under oath never to give anyone a deadly medicine. A modern French historian has called him "the greatest figure of the ninth century."

    The acquisition and adaptation of Greek knowledge by scientists working in the Arab empire became crucial to the rediscovery of Aristotle by Western Europe in the 12th century, and ultimately to the European Renaissance. After the 'Umayyad dynasty collapsed in the 740s and the caliphate was assumed by Abu 'l-'Abbas (founder of the 'Abbasid dynasty, in 749). The 'Abbasids received much support from Persian Muslims who had resented the dominance of the Arabs under the 'Umayyads. However, they were themselves an Arabic family, the language of government continued to be Arabic, the language of religion had to be Arabic. The most influential Persian supporters of the 'Abbasid takeover were the Barmakid family, led by Khalid ibn Barmak, who became governor of Mesopotamia under the second 'Abbasid caliph, al-Mansur. They were the sponsors of the enigmatic Jabir ibn Hayyan, who synthesized the new science of alchemy from a mixture of Pythagorean ideals and Indian and Persian mysticism. When the Barmakids fell from power in 804, Jabir fell from court favour as well. Al-Mansur founded a new capital for the caliphate at

    . With Juan Hispano and their patron, the Archbishop, he is one of the founders of the Toledan School. His activity extends from 1130 to 1180. Unlike his friend, he limits he focusses exclusively on philosophy, translating Greek and Arabic works and the commentaries of the earlier Moslem thinkers in the peninsula. Less faithful to the original texts, he frequently eliminated passages and added his own commentary. Gundisalvo depended on Juan Hispano for the translations from Arabic until late in his career when he controlled Arabic sufficiently to translate for himself (ex. Avicenas Metaphysics Al-sifa ). As an author he, but not his Jewish co-worker, avoided neoplatonism and even attacked it.
