| Sample Text | Leaf. This comprehensive medical encyclopaedia was dedicated to the Būyid ruler ’Adud al-Dawlah Fanā-Khusraw (reg. 338 AH/949 (CE)-372 (AH)/983 CE). It comprises two books: the first (juz’) is on medical theory in ten sections (maqālahs) and the second on therapeutics, also in ten sections maqālahs. ’Alī ibn al-’Abbās al-Majūsī was of Persian extraction, and it is possible thahis activities were restricted to Shiraz, never actually leaving Iran. His forebearers were Zorastrian (hence the name al-Majūsī), though he himself seems to have been a Muslim. |
