Extractions: Melbourne (Australia) The Isma'ili movement was the most dynamic and vigorous of the Shi'i movements in the medieval Muslim World, and is still active and very well organized under the leadership of its present Imam, H. H. The Aga Khan Shah Karim al-Husayni. Through the Fatimid Caliphate in North Africa and Egypt (C.E. 909-1171), and through the Nizari Imamate at Alamut in Persia (C.E. 1094-1256), Isma'ilism presented an unexampled spiritual and political challenge to the dominance of Sunni orthodoxy and to the authority of contemporary Sunni rulers and dynasties, such as the Saljuq Sultans and Abbasid Caliphs. From previous standpoints, historians or scholars in both the East and West have given considerable attention to the medieval Isma'ilis, and especially to the so-called "Assassins" of Alamut and Misyaf. Western writers have also shown interest in the Isma'ilis of Syria led by the 'Old Man of the Mountains' (Shaikh al-Jabal), or accounts of the contacts of the Crusaders with them. The present article deals with the life and career of one of the greatest and most valiant of the Syrian Isma'ili da'is of the thirteenth century C.E. namely Rashid al-Din Sinan, (d. 1193 or 1194).

Necklaces Of Gems-2 *Shaikh Muhammad ibn Qa id alAwani. *Shaikh Abdu llah ibn sinan ar-Rudaini . *Shaikh ibrahim ibn Abd al-Wahid al-Maqdisi al-Hanbali. http://www.islam.co.za/abdalqadirjilani/necklaces_2.htm
Extractions: Necklaces of Gems Part 2 Abu Sa'id al-Mukharrimi and his schoolhouse [madrasa]. As for al-Mukharrimi, this is the proper spelling of his name, which indicates his connection with the quarter of Baghdad called al-Mukharrim. Some of the sons of Yazid ibn al-Mukharrim settled there, and that is how that quarter of the city acquired its name. It was al-Qadi [the Judge] Abu Sa'id al-Mukharrimi, referred to above, who said: "'Abd al-Qadir al-Jili wore a patched cloak [khirqa] that he received from me, and I wore a patched cloak that I received from him, so each of us obtained blessing by means of the other." As related by that highly erudite scholar, Ibrahim ad-Dairi ash-Shafi'i, author of the compendium entitled "The Beautiful Garden" [ar-Rawd az-Zahir], Shaikh 'Abd al-Qadir received his introduction to spiritual culture [tasawwuf] from Shaikh Abu Ya'qub Yusuf ibn Ayyub ibn Yusuf ibn al-Husain ibn Wahra al-Hamadani az-Zahid [the Ascetic], of whom we shall have more to say in due course. This was when he (may Allah be well pleased with him) first arrived in Baghdad, and met a number of the eminent ascetics of the time. Abu Sa'id al-Mukharrimi had a well-kept little schoolhouse by the Portico Gate [Bab al-Azaj]. This building was placed at the disposal of our master, Shaikh 'Abd al-Qadir, and in it he gave talks to the people, whom he addressed in the language of religious exhortation [wa'z] and spiritual reminding [tadhkir]. It soon became apparent that he was endowed with charismatic talents [karamat], his reputation grew, and he met with wide acceptance. The schoolhouse [madrasa] soon became too cramped, with so many people thronging to attend his regular discourse-session [majlis]. To cope with the overcrowding and the lack of space, he used to address the people while sitting by the wall, leaning on the door of the guesthouse, which opened onto the street.
Extractions: Additional illustrations courtesy of Bodleian Library Towards the end of the 10th century, Ibn al-Nadim, son of a Baghdad , bookseller and boon companion of Abbasid caliphs, compiled an annotated bibliography of books that had passed through his hands during the course of his long and active life. The sheer number of books that he lists, to say nothing of the range of their subject matter, is astonishing: Aristotle appears beside Sindbad the Sailor, Euclid beside the stories of Goha, Plato beside the poems of'Antar ibn Shad-dad. The most striking feature of Ibn al-Nadim's catalog, however, is the number of books dealing with science. In a chapter entitled The Reason Why Books on Philosophy and Other Ancient Sciences Became Plentiful in This Country, Ibn al-Nadim relates a strange story of how Aristotle appeared in a dream to the Caliph al-Ma'mun and assured him that there was no conflict between reason and revelation. Thus reassured, al-Ma'mun set about obtaining the works of the Greek philosophers, the first step toward founding the famous House of Wisdom, a center for the translation of Greek scientific works into Arabic. Ibn al-Nadim told the story this way: This dream was one of the most definite reasons for the output of books. Between al-Ma'mun and the Byzantine emperor there was correspondence ... so al-Ma'mun wrote to the Byzantine emperor asking his permission to obtain a selection of old scientific manuscripts, stored and treasured in the country of the Byzantines. After first refusing, he finally complied, and al-Ma'mun sent forth a number of scholars, among them al-Hajjaj ibn Matar, Ibn al-Batrik, Salman, the director of the House of Wisdom and many others. They selected books from those they found and brought them back to al-Ma'mun, who ordered them to prepare translations of them.
Matematica Translate this page Alcuni geometri, tra cui ibrahim ibn sinan, continuarono le ricerche di Archimedesulle aree e sui volumi, e Kamal al-Din e altri applicarono la teoria http://www.geocities.com/codadilupo_2000/matematica.htm
Extractions: e le operazioni logiche con esse eseguibili. In passato la matematica era suddivisa in tre branche ben definite, la geometria, o scienza delle quantità e delle dimensioni geometriche, la aritmetica, o scienza dei numeri e del contare, e l'algebra, cioè la generalizzazione astratta di questi due campi. Verso la metà del XIX secolo questa definizione divenne sempre meno appropriata, essendo ormai la matematica divenuta la scienza delle relazioni , comprendente i nuovi campi della logica matematica e simbolica. Si assistette così all'introduzione di nuovi "segni matematici", per esprimere in forma rigorosa i processi di deduzione e di induzione, e alla formulazione e organizzazione di definizioni, assiomi, postulati e regole per elaborare relazioni e teoremi complessi a partire da concetti elementari e primitivi. Dal punto di vista storico, la matematica è nata con l'uomo, per soddisfare le primitive esigenze del contare e dell'individuare gli oggetti: le prime testimonianze di alcune nozioni di geometria e dell'interesse per le forme geometriche sono state infatti individuate nei disegni del vasellame e dei tessuti, e nelle pitture rupestri d'epoca preistorica. I sistemi di conteggio primitivi, sviluppati in seguito a esigenze pratiche, erano quasi certamente basati sull'uso delle dita di una o di entrambe le mani, come suggerito dalla predominanza del numero 5 e del numero 10 come basi degli attuali sistemi di numerazione.

His grandfather Imam Jaafar Al-sadiq (AS) died one month before the birth of Imam Reza(AS) The family must have been consoled by his birth which took place after such a great loss. He was brought up and instructed by his affectionate father under whose supervision he passed his boyhood and youth. He availed himself of the instructions of his learned father for thirty one years till the later was taken to Baghdad to suffer the hardship of imprisonment for four years till his death. Imam Musa Ibn Jaafar(AS) could foresee that the hostile Abbasid ruler would not allow him to live peacefully and circumstances would take such a turn that his followers would not be able to see him or enquire about his successor prior to his death. So while free and undisturbed in Madinah he felt the need to introduce his successor to his followers. He, therefore, assembled seventeen prominent dignitaries from the descendants of Imam Ali (AS) and proclaimed that his son Ali Ibn Musa(AS) would succeed him. He also wrote his will on which 60 respected elders of Madinah signed as witnesses. Such elaborated arrangements were never made by any other Imam and they proved to be most appropriate due to the controversy about the Imamat which ensued after the death of Imam Musa Ibn Jaafar (AS).

Deadly Attacks Against The Assyrian Christians Of Iraq His two grand sons Thabit (893) and ibrahim (946) and one great grandson, He was also called ibnJabir ibn sinan. Among other luminaries of the Harran http://www.christiansofiraq.com/harranian.html
Extractions: Harran during the Assyrian period was an important center of astronomy and mathematics which was used to calculate the movement of planets the prediction of eclipses and other astronomical events. It should not surprise us that such knowledge had survived a thousand years later in that city perhaps because Harranians refused to convert to Christianity and the planetary worship was still part of their religion which made such knowledge necessary. During the early Islamic period they were called Sabians a name mentioned in Koran which they adopted to join the ranks of the tolerated people. At times they have been confused with the Sabians living in southern Mesopotamia. One of the first translators of the Harranian school of mathematic and astronomy is known by his Arabized name as al-Hajjaj ibn-yusuf ibn-Matar (786-833). He is credited with having made the first translation of Euclid' Elements and one of the first of ptolemy's astronomical work in Arabic "Almagest" in 827-28 from a former Syriac version. (Philip Hitti, "History of the Arabs", Princeton University Press, 10th edition, Macmillan st. Martine Press p.314) It was revised by Hunayn ibn-Ishaq and later by Thabit . Thabit bin Qurra (826-901) is considered to be the greatest geometer of the Arab period. "Thabit translated into Arabic seven of the eight books on conic sections of Apolonius and wrote earliest known work on the sundial."

His reputation is therefore well established as both a poet and a scientist. What is much less known about him, however, is his significance as a philosopher and his few remaining philosophical works have not received anywhere the same attention in the Occident as have his scientific or poetic writings to the extent that he hardly figures in general histories of Islamic philosophy written in Europe It has become usually forgotten that in traditional Islamic sources he was known essentially as a philosopher-scientist.

One scientist active and productive in all of these fields was Ibn al-Haytham, called by his successors of the 12th century "Ptolemy the Second." Ibn al-Haytham, also known as Alhazen (the Latin transliteration of his first name al-Hasan), was born in Iraq, most likely in Bassorah, in the second half of the 10th century. He arrived in Cairo under the reign of Fatimid Caliph al-Hakim, a patron of the sciences who was particularly interested in astronomy. Ibn al-Haytham proposed to the Caliph a hydraulic project to control the flow of the Nilean early Aswan dam. The Caliph refused, but al-Haytham continued to live in Cairo, in the neighborhood of the famous University of al-Azhar, until his death after 1040.
