He was from Bokhara (a city in Azerbaijan) and pupil of Abolghasem Moghanei Razi, who himself was one of the Rhazes’s pupils. Due to prominant achievements in treatment of psychiatric patients (especially melancholics), Akhawayni was called as “physician of insanes”. He has some books in pharmacology, anatomy and pulsology.

He also discussed about many neurological and psychological diseases in his book. Accordingly, he could be considered as one of the pioneers of medicine in Iran.
