Ibn al-Yasamin

Abu Muhammad 'Abdallah ibn Muhammad ibn Hajjaj ibn al-Yasmin al-Adrini al-Fessi (Arabic: ابن الياسمين) (died 1204), more commonly known as ibn al-Yasmin, was a Berber mathematician during the Middle Ages. He was born in Morocco and received his education in Fez and Sevilla. Little is known of his personal life except that he was born into a Berber family. Since some historians have given him the surname al-Ishbili, he may have been born or grown up in Sevilla. Besides mathematics, he also became famous in literature, law, and particularly in Andalusian poetry.
