Javameol olum book is a collection of various sciences by Ibn Farighun, with the aim of training courtiers with emphasis on the practical aspect of science that has been developed in the second half of fourth century. The author has divided the book into two parts. Court sciences have been raised in the first article and in the second, philosophical and religious sciences have been emphasized. The author has tried to explain different sciences briefly and effectively. In any of the articles subsidiary branches of science have been stated. Among reviewing Javameol olum book, this paper has noted Ebne Farighun’s approach toward science and classification of sciences.
