Thabit Ibn Qurrah.

Thabit contributed to several branches of science, notably mathematics, astronomy and mechanics, in addition to translating a large number of works from Greek to Arabic.

He criticised a number of theorems of Euclid's elements and proposed important improvements.

Thābit is considered one of the first reformers of the Ptolemaic system, and in mechanics he was a founder of statics. (Muslim Scientists and Scholars Series: 05). Please share this information to others as well. #muslimscientistsandscholars
