cocoroachchanel: Illustration by Al-Biruni (973-1048) of different phases of the moon, from Kitab al-Tafhim (in Persian). The subtitled comment: فارسی: جایگاه‌های مختلف ماه در کتاب التفهیم اثر ابوریحان بیرونی. متن زیر تصویر: جِرَا جرا این فزودن و کاستن نور قمر را است و ستارکان دیکر را نیست میان مردمان نکرستن و ناستذنْ این مَعْنیها را خلافَسْت در روشناای ستارکان که ایشانرا روشناای از خویستن است Translation: Why – why the increase and decrease of the light of the moon is settled while other stars don’t behave so, observing these and not understanding the spirit of these is a misdeed that the light of the stars is of their own

فارسی: جایگاه‌های مختلف ماه در کتاب التفهیم اثر ابوریحان بیرونی. متن زیر تصویر:

جِرَا جرا این فزودن و کاستن نور قمر را است و ستارکان دیکر را نیست

میان مردمان نکرستن و ناستذنْ این مَعْنیها را خلافَسْت

در روشناای ستارکان که ایشانرا روشناای از خویستن است

Translation:

Why – why the increase and decrease of the light of the moon is settled while other stars don’t behave so, observing these and not understanding the spirit of these is a misdeed that the light of the stars is of their own
