Name: Abu Abdallah Muhammad
Ibn Jabr Ibn Sinan Al Battani
Dear Islanders,
Title: Al Battani
Firstly, we would like to extend our
warmest appreciation to everyone
who has been an avid reader of our
newsletter. We have seen an increase
in readership since the beginning
of 2015, and for that we would like
to thank you, our readers, for the
constant support.
Birth: 858
Death: 929
Region: Turkey/Iraq
Main Interests: Mathematics,
Astronomy, Astrology
Notable Ideas: Al Battani produced
a number of trigonometrical
relationships. He determined the
solar year as being 365 days, 5
hours, 46 minutes and 24 seconds
We have some really exciting events
taking place this month. In coordination
with Bahrain International Circuit
and Red Bull Bahrain, Amwaj Islands

Works: Al Battani’s major work
is Kitab az-Zij, or the book of
astronomical tables, also knows
as az-Zij al- Sabi’. It was largely
based on Ptolemy’s theory, and
other Greco-Syriac sources, while
showing little Indian or Persian
influence. In his az-Zij, he provided
descriptions of a quadrant
instrument
Happy Easter!
Sincerely,
The Amwaj Team
