List of Ibn al-Haytham’s Works According to Ibn Abi Usaybi'ah
Ibn al-Haytham’s works was about 182 titles (Salik, 2008). He wrote on philosophical sciences which comprised of mathematics, natural sciences and theology or metaphysics. Specifically, his writings also include in the field of arithmetic, astronomy, music, ethics, politics and poetry (Sabra, 2003). However, according to Rashed (2013), the information regarding the works of Ibn al-Haytham in Ibn Abi Usaybiah’s ‘Uyun al-Anba’ fi Tabaqat al-Atibba’ might be wrong. This is because of the confusion between these two persons: Muhammad ibn al-Hasan ibn al-Haytham and al-Hasan ibn al-Hasan ibn al-Haytham (Rashed, 2013). Nevertheless, Rashed (2013) did not proves his statement according to historical and biobibliographical research.
Readers may take a look on Ibn al-Haytham’s works below. The list comes from Hillowala’s (2000) translation of fourteenth chapter of ‘Uyun al-Anba’ fi Tabaqat al-Atibba’. Whereas the categorization is made by myself based on title of the writing, not from its content. May Allah bless Ibn al-Haytham’s efforts and it became his ‘ibadah because of his sincerity in gaining knowledge, as what he says:
“I decided to discover what it is that brings us closer to God, what pleases Him most, and what makes us submissive to His ineluctable Will.” (Steffens, 2007)
