IntroductionAl-Biruni or in full Abū al-Rayhān Muhammad ibn Ahmad al-Bīrūnī was a Persian-Khwarezmian Muslim scholar and polymath. He was born in 973 and his contributions to science made him one of the greatest Muslim scientists and astronomers. He was well versed in physics, mathematics, geography, history, ethnography, anthropology and astronomy. During his time as a great polymath, he survived some unusual political changes such as the change of six princes. There is not enough information available about his early life other than what is known; Khwarezm was located beyond the “Amu Darya” river, a river which in those days was called the Oxus River. The educator of Al-Biruni, Khwarezm-Shah was a member of the parliament or, in better words, the dynasty that controlled and ruled the area. The dynasty of which al-Biruni's educator was a prince was called Banu Iraq. His real name was Abu Nasr Mansur and there are no clear sources and motivations as to what happened to him during the civil war at the time. The events of that period went in a way that al-Biruni himself described them as: “After I had just settled down for a few years, I was allowed by the Lord of Time to return home, but I was forced to participate in worldly affairs , which aroused the envy of the foolish, but which made the wise pity me."

His mathematical and physical theories and discoveries led to great discoveries to clarify questions about life, stars and astronomy in general. It plays an important role in science, especially astronomy. His scientific explorations and theories made him one of the scientists tested again... half of the article...
