Hair between wisdom and ignorance of Islam (Poets of the Taif model)

Abstract

     A piece of wisdom is a contemplative profound look into life and its issues and people and their morals, goals and destinies. It is a call to uncover the truth and present a typical picture of the values ​​of truth, goodness, beauty and lesson-learning. Poets, since the pre-Islamic paganistictimes, have addressed these humane meanings without which they would not be glorified since “Arabs do not consider a poet laureate unless he originates some wisdom in his poetry”. However, wisdom in poetry has not been an independent purpose as was the case for praising, commiseration, satire, flirtation... etc. It was used to be originated casually where the nature of the theme requires it.               

With the advent of Islam, veteran poets continued decorating their poems with wise implications. Islam had a tangible impact on the meanings and contents addressed by those veteran poets, and on using poetry to fight paganisticideology, and serving Islam. Such wisdom has been maintained eternal as poets of wisdom exceeded the individuality to popularity, so he was honored by the people memorizing his verses and communicating them from generation to another.
