Today we talk about such a scientist, thinker and philosopher,
* Who was the master of Jabir ibn Hayyan (Geber), the father of modern chemistry.
* Who was the initiator of the golden age of Arabic science.
* Who laid the foundation of many branches of science.
The great scientist Ja'far al-Sadiq.
Born on 20 April 700 on the Arabic land, the name of that scientist was Jafar al-Sadiq. A branch of Islam is called Jafri branch after his name, which considers him as Imam. Whereas according to the Sufi branch they are Wali. Other branches of Islam also do not deny their importance.
Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq was in the fourth generation of Hazrat Ali. His father Imam Mohammad Baqir himself was a scientist and used to offer knowledge to hundreds of disciples while running his college in Medina. After his father, Ja'far al-Sadiq took over this task and told his disciples some things that no one else had told before.
He denied Aristotle's theory of four basic elements and said that I am surprised that Aristotle said that there are only four elements in the world, soil, water, fire and air. Soil itself is not an element, but it contains many elements. Similarly, Ja'far al-Sadiq did not consider water, fire and air as elements. Air was also considered a mixture of elements and told that each of these elements is necessary for breathing. In Medical Science, Imam Sadiq told that all the elements found in the soil are also in the human body. Of these, four elements are present in high quantities, eight in small quantities and eight in other subtle quantities. Modern medical science confirms this.
He told one of the disciples, "The stone you see motionless in front is moving very fast inside it." After that he said, "This stone was in liquid state long ago. Even today if this stone is heated too much then it will come in liquid state."
The basic principle of optics is 'When light changes from an object and reaches the eye, then that object is visible.' It is said of Imam Sadiq only. Once told in his lecture that powerful light can move even heavy objects. This statement was confirmed after the invention of laser rays. Another miraculous theory of them is that an opposite substance of every substance is also present in the universe. This was a glimpse of today's Matter-Antimatter theory. One theory imam told that the earth revolves about its axis. Which was confirmed in the twentieth century. At the same time, he also told that nothing is stable in the universe. Everything is in motion.
He told an interesting theory about the universe that the universe is not always in the same state. It expands in one time interval and shrinks in another time interval.
According to some references, the number of disciples of the Imam was more than four thousand. People from far and wide used to come to him to gain knowledge. His main disciples include Father of Chemistry Jabir Ibn Hayyan, Imam Abu Hanifa, after whom the Hanafi branch of Islam is named, and Malik Ibn Anas, the founder and chief of the Maliki branch. Huh.
It was ironic that the world always tried to suppress the discoveries of Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq. Behind this, there was a lot of hand of the Arab rulers of that era, who due to their jealous nature kept trying to hide their discoveries from the world.
His fear was also a reason behind this. He always felt his throne swinging in the popularity of the Imam. For all these reasons, the Arab ruler Mansoor poisoned them and martyred them in 765. And this star, who illuminated the world with his knowledge, got away from the earth forever.
