Abstract	:	Abū Kāmil Shujāʿ b. Aslam al-Miṣrī (sometimes called “al-Ḥāsib al-Miṣrī”) was a prominent mathematician who wrote a treatise on algebra following the pioneering studies of al-Khwārazmī (d. c.235/850), whose work he quotes. Since Abū Kāmil’s work is mentioned by Ibn al-Nadīm in his bio-bibliographical Fihrist (c. 379/990) (339), he may be presumed to have lived from about 235/850 to about 317/930. Abū Kāmil's Algebra was composed in three parts. Part I uses a variety of algebraic approaches
