| ABOUT MANUSCRIPT : | Siasa al-Sibyan (The Diseases of Children and Their Management) is a significant work on pediatric medicine authored by the renowned Muslim physician Ibn al-Jazzar in the 4th century Hijri (10th century AD). For centuries, this book served as a fundamental reference for the treatment of pediatric diseases. Despite its historical origins, many historians of medical sciences recognize its alignment with contemporary pediatric knowledge. The work was edited by Habib al-Hayla in Tunisia in 1979 AD. In Siasa al-Sibyan (The Diseases of Children and Their Management), single drugs are detailed with their specific actions and therapeutic effects. The book provides comprehensive descriptions of these drugs, including their uses in treating various pediatric conditions. Each drug is referenced with citations from other authoritative medical texts, demonstrating its established role in the broader context of historical medical knowledge. The inclusion of these references highlights the integration of Siasa al-Sibyan with other classical works, underscoring its significance and reliability in the field of pediatric medicine. Chapters of the Book: The book is organized into twenty-two chapters, each addressing various aspects of newborn and child care in both health and illness. Key topics include: Qualities of the Wet Nurse: This chapter covers the attributes, diet, and milk of the wet nurse, emphasizing their importance in the health of the infant. Age-Specific Conditions: It discusses conditions affecting children at different stages of development, such as diarrhea, ear moisture, and umbilical inflammation. Additional Health Issues: The book addresses a range of other pediatric concerns, including epilepsy, abdominal swelling, toothaches, mouth sores, and parasitic diseases. Author AbūJaʿfarAḥmad ibn Ibrāhīm ibn AbīKhālid ibn al-Jazzār al-Qayrawani (895–979) was a distinguished 10th century Muslim Arab physician known for his extensive contributions to Islamic medicine. Born in Qayrawan, Tunisia, he gained recognition in Europe under the Latinized name Algizar. His writings continue to be influential in the field of pediatric medicine. | ||
