Sample Text
Basmala..., this is the book of the mass [poetry] of the Arabs in pre-Islamic times and Islam, in whose tongues the Qur’an was revealed, Arabic was derived from their words, evidence for the meanings of hadith was taken from their poetry, and wisdom and etiquette were attributed to them. Written by Abu Zaid Muhammad bin Abi Al-Khattab Al-Qurashi,... So we took from their poetry, since they were originally deceived, which are the eyes of their poetry and the reins of their collections. We mention in this book of ours what was reported in the transmitted narrations and the poetry preserved from them, and what their words were consistent with in the Qur’an, and what was narrated on the authority of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, in poetry and poets, and what was preserved from the jinn. My success is only in God, in Him I trust and to Him I turn. This is what Al-Mufaddal bin Muhammad Al-Dhabi told us about
