   Extractions: Sinan ibn Thabit ibn Qurra Abu Said Sinan ibn Thabit ibn Qurra né en 880 environ, mort en 943 à Bagdad, (en Iraq) Sinan ibn Thabit ibn Qurra était le fils de Thabit ibn Qurra et le père de Ibrahim ibn Sinan . Bien que Sinan était extrêmement éminent en médecine ses contributions aux mathématiques étaient moins importantes mais il mérite une place dans cet archive par ses contributions aux mathématiques dans cette remarquable famille de savants. Thabit ibn Qurra , le père de Sinan , était un membre de la secte Sabienne (à Harran )qui vénérait les étoiles. Bien sur son père était motivé par l'étude de l'astronomie et la secte avait produit beaucoup d'astronomes et mathématiciens de qualité comme Thabit lui même. Sinan s'était formé en médecine, une discipline qui avec son père avaient étudié à Bagdad. Le patron de son père était le Calife, Al-Mu'tadid , un des plus grands califes Abbassit , et Sinan avait grandit dans la court où son père était astronome. Le père de Sinan, Thabit mourut en 901 le calife Al-Mu'tadid mourut l'année suivante.

A magnificent array of names which it would not be difficult to extend. If anyone tells you that the Middle Ages were scientifically sterile, just quote these men to him, all of whom flourished within a short period, 750 to 1100 A.D." Preface

   Extractions: Ibrahim ibn Sinan was a grandson of Thabit ibn Qurra and studied geometry and in particular tangents to circles. He also studied the apparent motion of the Sun and the geometry of shadows. There is no doubt that had he not died at the young age of thirty-eight, he would have achieved a degree of fame for his mathematical works going even beyond the opinion of Sezgin (see [5] and [6]) that he was:- ... one of the most important mathematicians in the medieval Islamic world. Perhaps his early death robbed him of the chance to make a contribution even more important than that of his famous grandfather. Ibrahim's most important work was on the quadrature of the parabola where he introduced a method of integration more general than that of Archimedes . His grandfather Thabit ibn Qurra had started to view integration in a different way to Archimedes but Ibrahim realised that al-Mahani had made improvements on what his father had achieved. To Ibrahim it was unacceptable that (see for example [1]):-

   Extractions: Sinan ibn Thabit ibn Qurra was the son of Thabit ibn Qurra and the father of Ibrahim ibn Sinan . Although Sinan was extremely eminent in medicine his contributions to mathematics were somewhat less major but he still deserves a place in this archive as a contributor to mathematics in this remarkable family of scholars. Thabit ibn Qurra , Sinan's father, was a member of the Sabian sect. The Sabian religious sect were star worshippers from Harran. 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 such as Thabit himself. Sinan was trained in medicine, a topic which his father had studied in Baghdad. His father's patron was the Caliph, al-Mu'tadid, one of the greatest of the 'Abbasid caliphs, and Sinan was brought up at the court where his father held the role of court astronomer. Sinan's father Thabit died in 901 and the caliph al-Mu'tadid died the following year. Al-Mu'tadid had shown great skill in playing the various factions off against each other during his period of power but after his troops were defeated by the Qarmatians, a schismatic sect and political movement. Historians argue whether al-Mu'tadid was poisoned in a palace intrigue, but even if he was not this is an indication of the atmosphere in the court where Sinan lived. By this time Sinan was a man of about 22 years of age but, despite having great medical skills, he seems to have held no positions at this time.

    Extractions: Thabit ibn Qurra était né à Harran et était membre de la secte Sabienne qui vénérait les étoiles. Bien sur cela veut dire qu'il avait une grande motivation pour l'étude de l'astronomie et la secte avait produit beaucoup d'astronomes et mathématiciens. La secte, avec des solides relations avec les Grecs, avait adopté en premier temps la culture Grecque, et il était courant pour les membres de parler le Grec , après la conquête des Sabiens par l'Islam, ils commençaient à parler l'Arabe. Il y avait une autre langue parlée dans le sud-est de la Turquie, à savoir le Syriaque qui était la langue de la région natale de Thabit ibn Qurra , il était influencé par le Grec et l'Arabe. Quelques comptes-rendus disent que Thabit était échangeur d'argents quand il était jeune. Ce ci est plutôt possible mais quelques historiens ne sont pas d'accord. Certainement il avait hérité une grande fortune de sa famille et devait être issu d'une importante famille. Muhammad ibn Moussa ibn Shakir , qui avait visité Harran, était impressionné par le savoir de Thabit sur les langues en réalisant le potentiel du jeune homme, le persuada d'aller à Bagdad, il lui apprenait des leçons de mathématiques avec ses frères (frères Bani moussa A Bagdad Thabit recevait une formation en mathématique et en médecine, qui était courant pour les savants en ce temps. Il retourna à Harran mais sa philosophie libérale le conduisit à comparaître devant la court religieuseil devait abjurer ses ' hérésies '. Pour échapper aux persécutions il quitta Harran et avait été nommé astronome à la Court à Bagdad sous les ordres du Calife

    Extractions: 935 B.C. At the age of twenty-seven, Ibrahim ibn Sinan, was the only known mathematician in the year 935 BC. He was born in the city of Baghdad in 908 BC, where he also died at the age of thirty-eight. Ibrahim ibn Sinan’s interests were in geometry, especially tangents to circles, astronomy, and mathematical philosophy. He also wrote several books on geometry, including On Drawing the Three Conic Sections , which explains the constructions of the ellipse, hyperbola, and parabola. By studying the geometry of the shadows of the sun, Sinan tried to describe what he thought was the motion of the sun. The most famous work of Ibrahim ibn Sinan was the quadrature of the parabola. From this problem, Sinan developed a method of integration that was more general than the previously defined technique by Archimedes. His book, On the Measurement of the Parabola , introduces a theorem that states that the area of a segment of a parabola is four-thirds times the area of the triangle inscribed in that parabola. Ibrahim ibn Sinan translated many Greek mathematical and philosophical works. Because of his work in mathematical philosophy, he has been labeled the "foremost Arab mathematician to treat mathematical philosophy." Author References:

    Extractions: 908 AD Ibrahim ibn Sinan was born in Bagdad (now located in Iraq) in 908 AD. He was the grandson of Thabit ibn Qurra who translated many Greek astronomical and mathematical works into Arabic. Ibrahim ibn Sinan studied geometry including tangents to circles, and the geometry of shadows, and the motion of the Sun. He is considered the first Arab mathematician to think about mathematical philosophy. He constructed an ellipse, parabola and hyperbola in On drawing the three conic sections . Later in the manuscript he proves that the area of a segment of a parabola is four-thirds the area of the inscribed triangle. Another work On the motions of the sun deals with the motion of the solar apogee, and has an analysis of the observations underlying Ptolemy's solar theory. Author: Charles DeBoer References:

    Extractions: First Half of Tenth Century The overwhelming superiority of Muslim culture continued to be felt throughout the tenth century. Indeed, it was felt more strongly than over, not only the foremost men of science were Muslims, but also because cultural influences are essentially cumulative. By the beginning, or at any rate by the middle of the century, the excellence of muslim science was already so well established, even in the West, that each new arabic work benefited to some extent by the prestige pertaining to all. To be sure, other languages, such as Latin, Greek, or Hebrew were also used by scholars, but the works written in those languages contained nothing new, and in the field of science, as in any other, when one ceases to go forward, one already begins to go backward. All the new discoveries and the new thoughts were published in arabic. strangely enough, the language of the Qur'an had thus become the international vehicle of scientific progress.
