Of his life, not much is known. He was "branded a heretic in his home city" and left the Byzantine Empire together with the Prophet. His knowledge of the stars helped them to plot a course north and made sure they arrived safely. He is said to have often had philosophical discussions with the Prophet about "the nature of the universe" and man's place in it. For the prophet he build the Orrery.
