Al-A'sha
Al-A'sha () or Maymun Ibn Qays Al-A'sha (d.c. 570– 625) was an Arabic Jahiliyyah poet from Al-Yamama, Arabia. He claimed to receive inspiration from a jinni called ''Misḥal''. Although not a Christian himself, his poems prove familiarity with Christianity. He traveled through Mesopotamia, Syria, Arabia and Ethiopia. He was nicknamed al-A'sha which means "weak-sighted" or "night-blind" after he lost his sight. He continued to travel even after becoming blind, particularly along the western coast of the Arabian peninsula. It was then that he turned to the writing of panegyrics as a means of support. His style, reliant on sound effects and full-bodied foreign words, tends to be artificial. His love poems are devoted to the praise of Huraira, a black female slave. He is said to have believed in the Christian eschatological themes of Resurrection and Last Judgment, and to have been a monotheist. These beliefs may have been due to his interactions with the bishop of Najr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The Arabic expression (meaning literally “the age or condition of ignorance”) indicates an evaluation of selected parts of earlier Arabian history from a strongly Islamic perspective. The ''Jāhiliyyah'', often criticised by historians as religious propaganda because the term served as a grand narrative to paint pre-Islamic Arabs as barbarians in a morally corrupt social order. Its people (the ''jahl'', sing. ''jāhil'') lacked religious knowledge (''ʿilm'') and civilized qualities (''ḥilm''). As a result, they practiced polytheism, idol worship, and allegedly committed female infanticide, had societies rife with tyranny, injustice, despotism, and anarchy, and prejudice resulted in vainglorious tribal antagonisms. The pre-Islamic age was essentialized into a group of attributes and societal func ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
