Birth of the scholar 'Ala' al-Din Ibn al-Nafis at Damascus, c. 607/1210

'Ala' al-Din Abu al-Hasan Ali ibn Abi al-Hazm al-Qurashi al-Dimashqi, known as Ibn al-Nafis, was born at Damascus — al-A'lam: 'his origin was the village of Qurash (in Transoxiana) and he was born in Damascus'. He died in 687 AH aged about eighty — the Shadharat margin notes 'he was eighty-four' — placing his birth about 603–607 AH, and the Encyclopaedia makes him 'about 80 (lunar) years' old at death.
