He studied medicine from Ali ibnu Sahal at-Tabari, a physician and philosopher
born in Merv. In the past, his teacher was a Jew who converted to Islam after
taking an oath to become a royal employee under the authority of the Abbasid
caliph, al-Mu'tashim.
After the death of Khalifan al-Muktafi in 907 AD, ar-Razi decided to return to his
hometown of Rayy, where he gathered his disciples. In Ibn Nadim's book entitled
Fihrist, ar-Razi is given the title of Shaykh because he has many disciples. In
addition, ar-Razi is known as a good doctor and does not charge his patients for
treatment.
His services
Smallpox and measles
As a main doctor at a hospital in Baghdad, ar-Razi was the first to make an
explanation about smallpox:
"Smallpox occurs when the blood 'boils' and becomes infected, which then
results in the release of vapor.Then the young blood (which looks like a wet
extract on the skin) turns into an increasing amount of blood and the color is like
ripe grapes.At this stage, smallpox shown in bubbles in wine, can occur not only
in childhood, but also in adulthood.The best way to avoid this disease is to
prevent contact with the disease, because the possibility of smallpox outbreaks
could be epidemic. " Ar-Razi's book Al-Judari wal-Hasbah (Chicken and Measles)
is the first book to discuss about smallpox and measles as two different
outbreaks. The book is then translated dozens of times into Latin and other
European languages. The non-dogmatic way of explanation and the adherence to
the principles of Hippocrates in clinical observations show the ar-Razi way of
thinking in this book.
Pharmacy
In the pharmaceutical field, ar-Razi also contributes to making equipment such as
tubes, spatulas and mortar. Ar-razi also developed drugs derived from mercury.
Medical ethics
Ar-Razi also said that the goal of becoming a doctor is to do good, even to the
enemy and also beneficial to the surrounding community.
