Nah, holy shit... that guy... no way that actually happened???
Not even a prophet, more like he literally came from the future lmaooo
This sounds like a story about someone who came from another world
He actually saw the future
This is some regression reincarnation stuff
Damn, this gotta be a modern or contemporary person who regressed back in time right...?
Bruh, this lowkey looks like actual time regression tho?
Wait was this guy famous as a prophet because he predicted the king dying in some tournament or something
???: Ugh, you savages
way more info than needed The Islamic folks actually used that treatment method back then. The thing is, it's not that European doctors didn't know about itβthey just didn't follow it because it was the Islamic way of doing things. Nostradamus just went with whatever worked, whether it was conventional or not lol
wait so this dude actually figured it out when doctors were just like 'bad air lol'? that's insane, respect to him fr
Not me learning about this guy right now when I spent all of high school thinking the plague was just unsolvable π
The glow up from being nobody to the king's personal doctor hits different, lowkey motivational ngl
Okay but did he actually cure it or did people just stop dying because he had good vibes? asking for historical accuracy
This is the kind of underdog story they should be teaching us instead of whatever was in our textbooks π
Man got the ultimate job promotion in the 1300s, literally went from struggling to royalty status
