He has a famous book called ‘the crown of kings ‘ where he talks about how to get power and keep it . He brings a lot of stories about ancient kings from persia Mesopotamia and the early islamic empires The books is very similar to the prince of machiavelli

Fun fact: Al-Jahiż was a somewhat derogatory nickname meaning "One with bulging [eyes]". He may have had a medical condition we know today as "exopthalmos".

Wow, literally crushed by the weight of his own books. Tragic yet darkly poetic.

I’ve never learned in school anything about this great culture. It was always about Greeks, Roman’s and Europe. Maybe because Poland is predominantly catholic.

He's the bald guy in the House of Wisdom who keeps insulting me even after I give him free books.

Great subject. I first heard of him in a book about evolutionary theory called "Darwin's Ghost" by Rebecca Stott. She wrote an entire chapter about his natural philosophy and other ideas. In my opinion one if the last enlightened followers of Islam....before the dark ages of Islam that last until....today.

It's been a while since I heard of al-Jahiz. Glad to hear of him again! And who knows, he may actually discovered evolution for real if he lived longer.

I am an Alevi ( the Turkish/Anatolian form of Alawism ) and I would love to see a Video about Alevism and our scholars like “Pir Sultan Abdal” and “Haci Bektaş Veli” and maybe about “Shah Ismael Hatayi”, who kind of created this branch of Islam. (Disclaimer: there are some “experts” which claim that alevism has nothing to do with Islam. And I wanted to add that the main diffrence between “Alevi” and “Alawi” is, that we have different scholars like the previous mentioned and for example “Yunus Emre” of which you have already made an Video about).
