What happened with Ibn al-Haytham on 1 January, 1021

1 January, 1021

This is the year when Caliph Al-Hakim died. It is significant because Ibn al-Haytham, who had previously fallen out of favor with the Caliph and was said to have been forced into hiding, had his confiscated possessions returned to him following the Caliph's death. This marked a turning point in Alhazen's life, allowing him to continue his scholarly pursuits.
