01.History
Unani Tibb is the GreekoArabian Medical system that was developed during Islamic civilization. Muslims call it as Unani (Ionian) Medicine gratefully acknowledging its origin whereas European historians call it as Arab Medicine.
The Arabic Medicine was a continuation and renaissance of Greek, Persian, Egyptian and Babylonian sciences. The exile Nestorians founded schools of medicine in Persia. The schools established in Junde Shapur on the banks of the Euphrates served as the point of departure of medicine from Greek to Arabic.
During the period of the Omayyad Caliphs (first half of the 8th century) medical texts were translated from Greek into Persian andArabic. Hunain (809AD- 873AD), Al Razi (850AD - 925AD) Ali Ibn Sina (980AD - 1037AD) contributed to the development of the system. Canon of Medicine
The Arabs made three cardinal contributions to medicine viz. medicinal chemistry, organization of pharmacy and founding hospitals. They enriched the Greek medicine and thisArabic form of Greek medicine was transmitted to Europe through Latin translations.
Unani medicine or Arab medicine as European authors would call it remained true in Hippocratic principles. The Europe referred to it as the “European Traditional System”. The Unani principle and philosophy still exist even in Australia in the existance of the Unani Medical Society of Australia.
1.1Unani Medicine in Sri Lanka
Unani medicine which was practiced by the Muslims of Sri Lanka has a long history going back to the 12th century AD. The Unani system of medicine was brought in by the Arabs when they settled down on the coast land of Serandib (Sri Lanka) between the 10th to 12th centuries AD.
In the 10th century AD, the prince Jamaluddeen, the son of Sulthan of Kenya in Asia Minor settled in Beruwala and practiced as a physician.

Ahamed and Dr. H. M. Jaffer were brought down from India as lecturers in Unani. They were instrumental in organizing and establishing Unani Section at the College. Dr. H. M. Jaffer along with Sir Razik Fareed then a Member of the Board of Indigenous Medicine strived to keep the Unani Section at the College. Dr. H. M. Jaffer was the Chief Lecturer in the Unani Section.
