Al-Mubashshir ibn Fatik was a scholar and patron of the Fatimid court in Cairo in the middle of the eleventh century. He studied medicine, astronomy, and history, and composed a lost History of the Fatimid Caliph al-Mustanir (r. 10361094). His only book to have survived, The Choicest Maxims and Best Sayings, gives 20 biographies of some of the main Semitic, Greek, and Egyptian figures of wisdom and prophecy.
. An important part of the biographical and gnomological materials may be compared with similar fragments attested in Greek literature. The Choicest Maxims was a medieval success, translated in at least four European languages from the thirteenth to the fifteenth centuries.
