Some Remedies from Hubais AL-Alhringsam*

Oliver Kahl

University of Manchester

This article deals with eight remedies from an otherwise lost pharmacological work of the Christian Arab translator-physician Hubais al-Alhringsam ad-Dimasqi (fl. second half of third/ninth century). The remedies, preserved as quotations in ar-Razirhrings (d. 313/925 or 323/935) medical encyclopedia al-Hawi, are re-edited here, translated into English, and supplemented by an index of botanical names.

* The system of transliteration used in this article is that of the Deutsche Morgenländische Gesellschaft.
