Diyāʾ al-Dīn Abū Muhammad ʿAbd Allah ibn Aḥmad al-Mālaqī, commonly known as Ibn al-Bayṭār (Arabic: ابن البيطار) (1197–1248 AD) was an Andalusian Arab physician, botanist, pharmacist, and scientist. His main contribution was the systematic recording of the additions made by Islamic physicians in the Middle Ages, adding between 300 and 400 types of medicines to the thousand previously known since antiquity. He was a disciple of Abu al-Abbas al-Nabati.
Ibn al-Baitar was born in the city of Málaga in al-Andalus (Islamic Spain) at the end of the twelfth century, hence his nisba "al-Mālaqī". His name "Ibn al-Baitar" is Arabic for "son of the veterinarian", which was his father's profession.

He describes more than 1,400 herbal remedies and recipes for their use. His knowledge spread through the monasteries and translation schools of the Middle Ages. This made Ibn al-Baitar the foremost authority on herbal medicine in Europe throughout the Middle Ages.
