Ghiyth al-Fat (Poochoch) was a Persian polymath who was best known as Omar Khayyam (Persian: bn Abr bn Abdel-Fat); (18 May 1048 – December 4th, a tymn ), a Persian poet best known for his contributions to mathematics, astronomy, history, and Persian poetry. He was born in Nishapur, the Seljuk Empire's first capital. He was a scholar who was familiar with the Seljuk dynasty's reign around the time of the First Crusade.
He is best known for his contributions to cubic equations' classification and resolution, where he proposed geometric solutions at the intersection of conics. Khayyam also contributed to the elucidation of the parallel axiom. 284 : 284 As an astronomer, he calculated the length of the solar year with remarkable precision and accuracy, and he created the Jalali calendar, a solar calendar with a 33-year intercalation cycle, which is still in use after nearly a millennium.
Omar Khayam has a tradition of attributed poetry to quatrains (rubyt ). In a translation by Edward FitzGerald (Rubaiyat of Omar Khayam, 1859), which had a massive success in the fin de siècle's Orientalism, this poetry became well-known to the English-reading world.
Life
In Nishapur in 1048, Omar Khayyam was born of Khorasani Persian ancestry in 1048. He is usually described as Omar Khayyam in medieval Persian texts. Despite being open to questions, it has often been assumed that his ancestors followed the art of tent-making, considering that Khayyam means tent-maker in Arabic. "He was Gemini, the sun and Mercury being in the ascendant [...]" says historian Bayhaqi, who was personally familiar with Omar's horoscope. 471 This was used by modern scholars to determine his date of birth as early as 18 May 1048. 658.
Khayam's boyhood was spent in Nishapur, a renowned metropolis under the Great Seljuq Empire, 659, at 15 a.m., and it had been a major center of the Zoroastrian faith. 68 Abu'l Fath Omar ibn Ibrahim al-Khayyam's full name, as it appears in Arabic sources. His early tutors, who sent him to study under Imam Muwaffaq Nishaburi, the greatest teacher of the Khorasan region who taught students of the highest nobility, expressed his gratitude. Omar enjoyed a long relationship with him over the years. Abu Hassan Bahmanyar bin Marzban, a Zoroastrian mathematician, was also taught 20 Khayyam by 20 Khayyam. About the year 106, he visited Nishapur's renowned library, where he enjoyed science, philosophy, mathematics, and astronomy. He moved to Samarkand, where he began to write his famous algebra treatise under Abu Tahir Abd al-Rahman ibn ibn ibn alaq, the city's governor and chief judge. According to Bayhaqi, Omar Khayyam was generously given by Karakhanid king Shams al-Mulk Nasr, who said, "show him the greatest love" so much so that he would sit [Omar] beside him on his throne.: 34 : 47
With Sultan Malik-Shah I, who had made incursions into Karakhanid dominions, peace was restored in 1073–4 peace. Khayyam appeared at Malik-Shah in 1074–5, five years old, when the Grand Vizier Nizam al-Mulk invited him to meet Malik-Shah in the city of Marv. Khayyam was later hired to set up an observatory in Isfahan and lead a team of scientists in performing precise astronomical studies aimed at the revision of the Persian calendar. The project started in 1076 and ended in 1079: 28 years ago, when Omar Khayam and his coworkers completed their year's count, naming it as 365.219858156 days. Given that the year's length is changing in the sixth decimal position over a lifetime of a person, this is quite accurate. For comparison, the year at the end of the 19th century was 365.242196 days, while today it is 365.242190 days.
Omar soon departed from favour at court after witnessing Malik-Shah's (and possibly by the Ismaili order of Assassins), and as a result, he embarked on his pilgrimage to Mecca. According to Al-Qifti, a possible ulterior motive for his pilgrimage was a public display of his faith with the intention of smuggling suspicions of unorthodoxy (including potential sympathy or adherence to Zoroastrianism) levelled against him by a hostile clergy. 29 He was then welcomed by the new Sultan Sanjar to Marv, possibly as a court astrologer. Due to his deteriorating health, he was allowed to return to Nishapur later in life. On his return, he appears to have lived the life of a recluse.: 99
Omar Khayyam died in his hometown of Nishapur at the age of 83 on December 4, 1131, and his burial remains in what is now the Mausoleum of Omar Khayyam. Nizami Aruzi, one of Khayyam's students, tells the tale that "my tomb will be in a position where the north wind can scatter roses over it" in Balkh during the 1112-3 years, when he made a promise that "my tomb will be in Balkh during the Jalali calendar." 36 Four years after his death, Aruzi buried his remains in a cemetery in a then-large and well-known quarter of Nishapur's then-largest district. The tomb, which had been eseen by Khayam, Aruzi discovered it at the foot of a garden wall over which pear trees and peach trees had protruded their heads and dropped their flowers so that his tombstone was hidden underneath.
