Musa al-Khawarizmi muslim scientist

His full name is Abu Abdullah Muhammad Ibn Musa Al Khwarizmi. He was born about 60 AD on an island near the Amu Darya River in Soviet Russia's the Arabian Sea. He played a major role in arithmetic, algebra, geography, astronomy, and geometry. However, he became the most talked-about algebra. According to his book Al-Jibr wal Muqabila, he was a devout Muslim. Al Khwarizmi took a job in the huge library of Caliph Mamun. This is probably where he became attracted to science. By studying with infinite patience, he got acquainted with all the subjects of science.


Muhammad ibn Musa al Khwarizmi-world-famous

He was a world-famous mathematician. He took the mathematical knowledge of his time to an unimaginably rich level. Besides being a mathematician, he was also a notable astronomer. His wisdom in geography surpassed his excellence. He was the father of algebra. He first mentioned the name of algebra in one of his books. The name of the book is Al Jabar Wal Muqabila.

He translated many Greek and Indian texts on science into Arabic. He wrote a book on arithmetic, which was later translated into Latin. Algebra was later enriched by him. At the heart of the development of mathematics to this day, and of the advances and discoveries that have been made in various branches of science with its help, is the contribution of al Khwarizmi's mathematical principles.


The English name of algebra, Algebra, originated from his book Kitab al-Jibr wal Muqabila. It is the duty of every Muslim to acquire knowledge. At present we are waiting for the Europeans to send new technology. We will use it. But our ancestors have exported knowledge to their country. So come back, boys and girls of the Ummah. You will see the light of revelation shining in it.


Al-Khawarizmi, whose biography we can learn more about his contributions and discoveries in mathematics. Who is the father of algebra (algebra), the word algebra originally came from his famous book ‘Hisab al-Jabr wal Muqabalah’. He was also a mathematician, geographer, and astronomer. We also find the name of this famous scientist in the ninth-tenth grade mathematics books. The full name is Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Musa Al Kharizmi. Little is known about his childhood and adolescence. However, his name suggests that he was born in about 70 AD during the Abbasid rule in the town of Khowarizmi (now Zarajm Province in Uzbekistan) in the province of Khorasan.

Caliph Harun al-Rashid was in power at the time of his birth. He opened his private library for scientific research, the Bayt al-Hikmah, or the House of Wisdom. Only the wisest Muslim scholars used to get a membership here. Musa al-Kharizmi is one of them. After the death of Caliph Harun, he also did research in the library adjacent to the Baitul Hikmah during the time of his son Caliph Al Mamun. He was alive even after the death of Caliph Mamun and was associated with the reign of the next Caliph Wasik Billah.

His name also appears in the book of the eminent historian Al-Tabari, where he named him Muhammad ibn Musa al Khwarizmi al-Qutrubulli. Moreover, in Ibn al-Nadim's book "Al-Fihrist" we find a short biography of Al-Kharijmi, which also contains a list of his books.


Muhammad ibn Musa al Khwarizmi's discoveries:

1. Algebra: If it is said who contributed the most to algebra, then if we go back to the beginning, we will find the name of Al Khawarizmi in history. He was the first to develop algebra with a special status in mathematics. Algebra is already known from the book Al Hisab Al Jabar Wal Muqabala. He wrote the book inspired by Khalifa Al Mamun. The book was published in 630 AD and its original copy is still preserved in the Oxford University Library. Moreover, in his book, he explains the rules of polynomial solution absolutely fundamentally and discusses the rules of the solution up to quadratic.

2. Arithmetic: He was the first to use other numbers including zero (0), through which Europe learned to use zero. ‘Kitabul Hisab Al Adad Al Hindi’ is his book on arithmetic. Most historians have come to the conclusion that Al Khwarizmi introduced the Arabic numerals, or Arabic numerals, based on the Arabic system of Hindu-Arabic numerals.
3. Astronomy: Here too he has left a single fundamental contribution, his 'schedule' caused a stir in the East and the West. With this, Ibn Ali made observations on astronomy and wrote many books on the subject.
4. Trigonometry: Trigonometric function determines the ratio of sine and cosine and connects them to its astronomical table. The name of his book is Jiz Al Sind-Hind.
5. Geography: The book ‘Kitab Al Surat Al Ard’ or Description of the World was written by Musa Al Khwarizmi in 633 AD. The book divides meteorological regions on the basis of latitude and longitude. Although based on Ptolemy's book, he was aware of Ptolemy's mistakes and corrected them. A copy of Surat al-Ard is now preserved in the library of the University of Strasbourg, France.
6. Hebrew Calendar: Khwarizmi wrote a book on the Hebrew calendar called Risala fi Istiqraj Tarikh al-Yahud, Extraction of the Jewish Ira. He describes how to determine which day of the week will be the first day of the month. It is also known as 'Tishri'. It also discusses the longitude of the sun and the moon using the Hebrew calendar.

The word algorithm is derived from the Latin corruption of al Khwarizmi. His mathematics has also influenced Umar Khayyam, Leonardo, and many more.


Muhammad ibn Musa al Khwarizmi died in about 650 AD.
