TEHRAN - Abu Bakr Mohammad ibn Zakariya Al-Razi, known in the West as Rhazes, was born into a Persian Muslim family in 865 A.D. in the ancient city of Rey, located on the southern slopes of Tehran.
After completing his primary education in his hometown, Razi moved to Baghdad for higher studies.
Later, on the invitation of the Islamic ruler of the time, he assumed the position of director and chief physician of Baghdad's premier hospital, before returning to Rey to continue his practice in medicine.
Like most of the poets, philosophers, and scientists of his time, Razi was a Persian who wrote in Arabic.
Essentially a practitioner of medicine, Razi produced over 200 seminal books and articles in various fields of science, theology, philosophy, mathematics, and astronomy.
August 25 is named the Day of Pharmacy on the Iranian calendar in honor of Al-Razi.
