Farabi (871–950)

Farabi was born in 871 in the city of Farab in Turkistan. He traveled to the leading centers of learning of his time, including Bukhara, Baghdad, Damascus, Cairo, Harran, and Aleppo. He produced works in the fields of philosophy, mathematics, logic, political science, and music.

In the Islamic world, he gained such great renown in philosophy that he was compared to Aristotle, who was known as Muallim al-Awwal (the First Teacher), and Farabi himself came to be known as Muallim al-Thani (the Second Teacher). In the Western world, he is known as Alpharabius. He passed away in Damascus in 950.
