Throughout history, in accordance with the prevailing intellectual frameworks and scientific knowledge of each era, numerous works have been produced in various fields of science, particularly in medicine and healing. Many of these works have remained unknown and have survived only in the form of manuscripts. One important example is the work of Ḥakīm Moḥammad Saʿīd Qomī, one of the prominent physicians of the Safavid period in the eleventh century AH, which consists of two independent treatises on two widespread diseases of the time, namely fever and diarrhea.
The present study is an interdisciplinary investigation in the field of the history of medicine. Its data have been collected through library-based research and are presented using a descriptive–analytical approach. The findings indicate that these two treatises were composed in Persian, by order of Shah Abbas II, in response to the diagnostic and therapeutic needs of the time, and within the framework of humoral medicine. In these works, Ḥakīm Moḥammad Saʿīd, in addition to classifying different types of fever and diarrhea, examines their pathogenic causes, diagnostic methods, preventive measures, physical and dietary care, as well as therapeutic procedures such as phlebotomy, emesis, maturative remedies, and herbal medicines. The inclusion of clinical experiences and practical recommendations for patient treatment is among the most distinctive features of these two treatises.
This research aims to analyze the content and scientific structure of these treatises, examine the medical terminology and concepts employed in them, and clarify their position within the medical system of Safavid Iran. Given the continued prevalence of fever and diarrhea in the present day, the findings may also possess practical and educational value.
