Description

Al-Beruni never had a pen out of his hand, nor his eye ever off a book, and his thoughts were ever directed to his studies, with the exception of two days in the year. He was beyond comparison, superior to every man of his time in the art of composition and in knowledge of geometry and philosophy. He was well versed in several languages: Syriac, Arabic, Persian, Hebrew and Sanskrit.
