أبو العتاهية وشعره فى الزهد ومكارم الأخلاق :دراسة فنية جمالية

Abstract

The researcher concentrates on ascetic poems by Abu al- ‘Atahiyyah who lived during ‘Abbasy period around the 2nd Hijrah. The researcher believes these poems need to be studied by analyzing his character and doctrine. Thus, the researcher has conducted an analytical approach on the poems’ language, style, rhythm, music and some of the quotations used from the Quran, Hadith and predecessors’ sayings in order to understand them better. The researcher has to apply the descriptive and analytical methods as tools to proof that Abu al- ‘Atahiyyah was a learned man and honest in his asceticism, being influenced obviously by the Quran and Hadith. It is found that he used ‘moqatta’at’ form in his poems which indicates that the system created in his poems was worthy.
