El poema de Ibn al-Yāsamīn sobre el álgebra (m. 601/1204) se considera como uno de los textos matemáticos más difundidos en el Magreb a finales de la Edad Media. Fue objeto de trece comentarios entre los cuales encontramos el de Abū ˁUṯmān Saˁīd b. Muḥammad al-ˁUqbānī (m. 811/1408). Este último fue considerado perdido por los especialistas en la historia de las matemáticas árabes. Pero después de investigaciones en las bibliotecas privadas, encontramos una copia de este comentario en una colección de astronomía y matemáticas conservada en la zagüía al-ˁUṯmāniyya de Tolga en Argelia. Como ha sido escrito por varios especialistas, este texto didáctico testimonia la difusión de comentarios y resúmenes en la enseñanza de las matemáticas en el Occidente islámico. Ibn al-Ya’s poem ‘sami’ on ‘a gebra’ (m. 601/1204) is considered to be one of the mathematical texts disseminated in the Maghreb at the end of the Middle Ages. It was the subject of thirteen comments, including that of Abu, the one of which was made by Abu, the one of which was the one of Abu, which has been the subject of an assessment of the facts of the case (m. 811/1408). This last time was seen as lost by specialists in the history of mathematics to practise. However, as a result of research in private libraries, we can find a copy of this comment in a collection of astronomy and mathematics held in the zagu, which has been preserved in Algeria. As has been written by various specialists, this text testifies to the difuse of comments and germs in the census of mathematics in the West Island.
