Abu Raihan Albaruni [AD 973-1048] - taught Greek [unani] Science,

and studied Hindu achievements and wrote a magnus opus " Kitab-al

Hind " .

 

It was in 1017 AD, at the behest of Sultan Muhmud of Persia,

Alberuni, aka Al-Biruni, traveled to India to learn about the

Hindus, and to discuss with them questions of religion, science and

literature, and the very basis of their civilization. He remained in

India for thirteen years, studying and exploring. Alberuni's

scholarly work has not been given the due recognition it deserves.

Not for nearly eight hundred years would any other writer match

Alberuni profound understanding of almost all aspects of Indian life.

 

Abu-Rihan Mohamed Ibn Hamil Al-Baruni was an astronomer, who

traveled to India for years. His papers include one on the theory of

the fixed stars (Theoria stellarum fixarum). He died in 1029,Al-

Baruni publishes his Determination of the Co-ordinates of the Cities

and travels to South Asia to study Hinduism and yoga.

 

To Alberuni, the Hindus were excellent philosophers, good

mathematicians and astronomers, though he naively believed himself

to be superior to them. This book is an account of the religion,

philosophy, literature, geography, chronology, astronomy, customs,

laws and astrology of India about 1030
