Arabic text

3756 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ زَائِدَةَ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَقُولُ: «إِنَّ مِنَ الشِّعْرِ حِكَمًا»

Commentary

a. Poetry is a type of speech. As both good and bad talk could be said in prose, similarly it could be composed in poetry too. b. Bad poetry should be avoided while composing good poetry and listening to it is permissible.
