Rāzī, al-
in full Abū Bakr Muḥammad ibn Zakariyyāʾ al-Rāzī Latin Rhazes

born с 865, Rayy, Persia
died 925 or 935, Rayy

Persian alchemist and philosopher.

He saw himself as the Islamic heir of Socrates in philosophy and of Hippocrates in medicine. In The Comprehensive Book, he surveyed Greek, Syrian, early Arabic, and some Indian medical knowledge, adding his own comments. A number of his works were translated into Latin and other languages. One such, The Spiritual Physick of Rhazes, is a popular ethical treatise and major alchemical study. He called himself a follower of Plato but disagreed with Arabic interpreters of Plato. His theory of the composition of matter is similar to that of Democritus. He was considered one of the greatest physicians of the early Islamic world.
