'Abu Zakariyya' Yuhanna Inb Masawaykh known as Mesue Yuhanna Ibn Masawayh (C.777-857) is one of the great name of islamic medicine. he was personal physician to the abbasid Caliphs al-Ma'mun. al-Mutasim, al-Wathiq and al-Mutawakkil, and spent most of his life in baghdad and Samarra. He contributed to the translating activities of the famous bayt al-hikma; and hunayn ibn Ishaq, the most influential of the traslators of Greek scientific texts, was his pupil. Despite his distinction, much of Ibn Masawayh's writing has not reached us. Just a handful of his text are extant in Arabic. more has been Preserved in Latin Translation, though the attribution of some text to an elder as opposed to a younger Mesue has given the false impression thar there was more than one Ibn Masawayh.
