Muhammad ibn Ibrahim al-Fazari (died 796 or 806) was a Muslim philosopher, mathematician and astronomer.〔 * H. Suter: ''Die Mathematiker und Astronomen der Araber'' (p. 4, 1900).〕〔 * Introduction to the History of Science by George Sarton – Page 524〕 He is not to be confused with his father Ibrāhīm al-Fazārī, also an astronomer and mathematician. Some sources refer to him as an Arab,〔Scott L. Montgomery. ''Science in Translation: movements of knowledge through cultures and time''. p. 81.〕〔Abramovich, Boris et al. ''History of Civilizations of Central Asia''. pp. 177–178.〕〔Pingree, David (1970). The Fragments of the Works of Al-Fazari. ''Journal of Near Eastern Studies''. Vol. 29, No. 2. pp. 103–123.〕〔Yaqut al-Hamawi. ''Irshad al-Arib Fi Ma'rifat al-Adib''. Ed. D. S. Margoliouth. "E. J. W. Ser.," 6. Vol. 6. 2d ed. London, 1931.〕 other sources state that he was a Persian.〔 * The Root of Europe: studies in the diffusion of Greek culture by Ralph Westwood Moore, Michael Huxley – 1952 – Page 48〕〔 * Richard N. Frye, ''The Golden Age of Persia'', p. 163.〕〔 * From Freedom to Freedom: African roots in American soils : selected readings – by Ervin Lewis, Mildred Bain〕 Al-Fazārī translated many scientific books into Arabic and Persian.〔 * Glimpses of Islamic History and Culture by M. D. Zafar – 1987 – Page 331〕 He is credited to have built the first astrolabe in the Islamic world.〔 Along with Yaʿqūb ibn Ṭāriq and his father he helped translate the Indian astronomical text by Brahmagupta (fl. 7th century), the ''Brāhmasphuṭasiddhānta'', into Arabic as ''Az-Zīj ‛alā Sinī al-‛Arab''.,〔E. S. Kennedy, ''A Survey of Islamic Astronomical Tables,'' (Transactions of the American Philosophical Society, New Series, 46, 2), Philadelphia, 1956, pp. 2, 7, 12 (zijes no. 2, 28, 71).〕 or the ''Sindhind''. This translation was possibly the vehicle by means of which the Hindu numerals were transmitted from India to Islam.〔 * D. E. Smith and L. C. Karpinski: ''The Hindu-Arabic Numerals'' (Boston, 1911), p.92.).〕 ==See also== *Hindu and Buddhist contribution to science in medieval Islam *List of Iranian scientists and scholars *List of Arab scientists *List of Iranian scientists *zij 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Muḥammad ibn Ibrāhīm al-Fazārī」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
