He used to call him “the devil of poetry.” Al-Akhfash said: We have not seen anyone more knowledgeable about poetry than Al-Asma’i. Al-Shafi’i said about him: No one expressed it better than Al-Asma’i. Al-Mubarrad said: Al-Asma’i was a master of the language and no one like him was known in it and in the abundance of narration.

The author died in Basra and was buried there, and there is disagreement about the year of his death.
