'''Abu al-Hasan 'Ali Ibn Nafi (; 789– 857), commonly known as Ziryab,''' was a singer, oud and lute player, composer, poet, and teacher. He lived and worked in what is now Iraq, Northern Africa, and Andalusia during the medieval Islamic period. He was also a polymath, with knowledge in astronomy, geography, meteorology, botanics, cosmetics, culinary art, and fashion.
His nickname, "Ziryab", comes from the Persian and Kurdish word for jay-bird , pronounced "Zaryāb". He was also known as ('blackbird') in Spanish. He was active at the Umayyad court of Córdoba in Islamic Iberia. He first achieved fame at the Abbasid court in Baghdad, his birthplace, as a performer and student of the musician and composer Ibrahim al-Mawsili.
