Jabir Al-Kaabi
Jabir Bin Merdaw Al-Kaabi (1780 – 1881) ( ar, الشيخ جابر بن مرداو الكعبي) was the Sheikh of Mohammerah during the 19th century. The reign of Jabir Ibn Merdaw Sheikh Jabir was troubled by intertribal wars. He therefore confined himself to an attitude of neutrality while maintaining good relations with both the Persian and Ottoman governments, and notably with the Walis of Baghdad. The tribe which was most troubling for Jabir was the Rabi'ah. He thus turned to an ancient Arabian diplomatic practice: he married Noura, the daughter of the Sheikh of the Rabi'ah, Talal, in order to appease the opposition of that tribe. One son was born from this union, to become the last ruler of autonomous Arabistan. The constant conflict between the Ottomans and the Qajars, the weakening of these empires, as well as the intelligent diplomacy of Sheikh Jabir would result in the Persian emperor, Naser al-Din Shah Qajar, recognising Arabistan as the dominion of Sheikh J ...

Jabir Ibn Aflah
Abū Muḥammad Jābir ibn Aflaḥ ( ar, أبو محمد جابر بن أفلح, la, Geber/Gebir; 1100–1150) was an Arab Muslim astronomer and mathematician from Seville, who was active in 12th century al-Andalus. His work ''Iṣlāḥ al-Majisṭi'' (Correction of the ''Almagest'') influenced Islamic, Jewish, and Christian astronomers. ''Iṣlāḥ al-Majisṭi (Correction of the Almagest)'' This work is a commentary and reworking of Ptolemy's '' Almagest'' and is the first criticism of it in the Islamic West. He particularly criticized the mathematical basis of the work.

These theorems had been developed by a group of 10th century Islamic mathematicians who included Abū al-Wafā' Būzjānī and then also by Abu Abd Allah Muhammad ibn Muadh Al-Jayyani who worked in Andalusia during the 11th ce ...
