المباحث الحکمۃ وأثرھا في الشعر العباسي

Investigation of wisdom and its impact on Abbasid poetry

Abstract

The concept of wisdom: Defining the meaning of “wisdom” is one of the most difficult matters. The same applies to general intangible words, such as freedom, beauty, justice, and all that the knower can mention the most important distinguishing characteristics of the word. Some of them defined it roughly and said: It is a deep, practical, direct look at the meanings and purposes of things, emanating from sharp intelligence, penetrating, and accurate observation, which it derives from life experiences and from its practical contact with daily life. And from this it was said: There is wisdom in poetry, and it was said: “Wisdom is the loss of the believer,” and sometimes it is noted in “the wise” that he adds to these correct views, working according to them.
