Ibn Sina studied the Holy Qur’an when he was young and was disciplined by a private teacher. In his youth, he was influenced by the preachers of Ismailism. He learned jurisprudence, geometry, astronomy, medicine, and metaphysics. He excelled in these subjects, according to his teachers, and practiced medicine and progressed with it. He read Al-Farabi’s books, including the understanding of the principles of philosophy. He trampled on all this when he was not more than seventeen years old, and it was fortunate for him that the Sultan of Bukhara was cured by his hand, so this allowed him to enter his library and read in it, so he devoted himself to reading her books and benefiting from them.

When he reached (21) years of age, he started writing and composing. After the death of his father, he moved from Gorgan to Ray and Hamadan. He died in Hamedan in 1037 and his grave is still known there.

Ibn Sina remained the most influential person in the world of medicine in Europe until the seventeenth century, and he followed the philosophy of Al-Farabi.
