Overview

Muhammad ibn Abdallah ibn Umar ibn al-Bazyar, a pupil of Habash ibn Abdallah. Ibn al-Nadim in the Fihrist describes him as an accomplished and distinguished man in the craft of astronomy. 2

Among his books, according to Ibn al-Nadim, are Kitab al-Ahwiya (On Climates) in nineteen treatises, Kitab al-Zij (Astronomical Tables), Kitab al-Qiranat wa Tahwil Sinni al-Alam (On Conjunctions and the Transfer of the World's Years), and Kitab al-Mawalid wa Tahwil Sinni al-Mawalid (On Nativities and the Transfer of Nativity Years). 2

His date and place of death: these need an additional source.
