Islamic astronomy has a long and storied tradition, spanning over a millennium and encompassing diverse cultures and geographic regions. From the early work of scholars such as Al-Khwarizmi and Al-Farghani, to the groundbreaking discoveries of Al-Biruni and Ibn Al-Haytham, Islamic astronomers made significant contributions to our understanding of the cosmos.
