Abu Bishr Amr ibn Uthmanibn Qanbar Al-Bishri (aka: Sibawayh) was a linguist of Persian origin born ca. 760 in the town of Bayza (ancient Nesayak) in the Fars province of Iran, died in Shiraz, also in the Fars, around 180 AH (796-797). He was one of the earliest grammarians, and his work is now perceived as the authoritative reference, so the universally applied grammatical rules of the classical Arabic language, and his phonetic descriptions of Arabic are considered today the most precise ever made, leading some to compare him with Panini. Arabic grammar (ar. qawaid, which means rules) experienced progress at the end of the eighth century of our era. The oldest known grammarian of the Arabic language was Abd Allah ibn Abi Isaq. The efforts of three subsequent generations of grammarians culminated in the book of the Persian scholar Sibavejhi. Abu Bishr Amribn Uthman ibn Qanbar Al-Bishri (i.e. Sibawayh) (Sibuyeh in Persian, Sibawayh in Arabic) was a linguist of Persian origin, born around 760. n. e. in the city of Bajza (formerly Nesajak) in the Iranian province of Fars and died in Shiraz, also in the province of Fars around 180 A.H. (796-797 AD). He was one of the earliest grammarians and his work is today considered an authoritative reference, so the universally applied grammatical rules in classical Arabic and his phonetic description of Arabic are today considered the most precise in the history of linguistics, which has led some to compare him with Panini.
