Abbas Ibn Firnas: The forgotten first aviator

---

This book traces the intellectual journey of Abbas Ibn Firnas, a Muslim scientist from Andalusia who envisioned human flight long before the Wright brothers invented the airplane—and well before Leonardo da Vinci’s designs for flying machines. Beyond merely recounting Ibn Firnas’s flight experiments, the book examines the factors that fostered the emergence of such a scientist: a passion for learning and research, family support, the natural environment, the educational ecosystem, socio-political conditions, and government policy. Through the figure of Abbas Ibn Firnas, the book invites readers to understand the contributions of Islamic civilization to science and explores how this scientific spirit can inspire innovation today.
