Life.
Ibn Jumayʿ was born to a Jewish family in Fustat, Egypt. He studied with the physician Ibn al-ʿAynzarbī (died 1153/AH 548) and entered the service of Saladin. According to Ibn Abi Usaibia's "Lives of the Physicians", Ibn Jumayʿ wrote eight works on medical-related subjects.
A contemporary of Moses Maimonides, Ibn Jumayʿ "became famous for having prevented a person having a cataleptic fit from being buried alive. He was the author of a number of medical writings, including "al-Irshād li-maṣāliḥ", dedicated to al-Baysanī, the vizier to Saladin, and completed by Ibn Jumayʿ al-Isrā’īlī's son Abū Tahir Ismāʿīl."
