Abu Ishaq Ibrahim ibn Habib ibn Sulaiman ibn Samura ibn Jundab al-Fazari (Arabisch: Abu Ishaq Ibrahim bin Habib bin Sulaiman bin Samurah bin Jandab al-Fizari) was een Arabisch wiskundige en astronoom uit de 8 eeuw.
He was the mathematician and astronaut of the dish of Abbasids. One should not confuse him with his son, Muhammad al-Fazari, also an astronomer. He made a number of astronomical dissertations (about the astrolabium and the calendar).
The caliph orders him and his son to translate the Indian astronomical text "Along the Sindhind" with Yaqub ibn Tariq. This he completed in Baghdad around 750. His translation was possibly the medium along which the Hindi figures have passed from India to the Western world.
He died around 777 in Baghdad.
