Hadith: "In poetry is wisdom"
|
|
| 1. Narrated Ubai bin Ka'b:
Allah's Apostle said, "Some
poetry contains wisdom."
Sahih
Bukhari Volume 8, Book 73,
Number 166.
|
|
| 2. Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas:
A desert Arab came to the Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) and began
to
speak. Thereupon the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) said: "
In
eloquence there is magic and in poetry there is wisdom. "
Sunaan
Abu Dawud Book 41,
Number 4993.

| 3. Narrated Buraydah ibn
al-Hasib:
I heard the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) say: "In
eloquence
there is magic, in knowledge ignorance,
in poetry wisdom, and in speech heaviness." Sunaan
Abu Dawud Book 41, Number
4994.
Sa'sa'ah ibn Suhan said: The
Prophet of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) spoke
the truth. His statement "In eloquence there is magic" means: (For
example), there is a right due from a man who is more eloquent in
reasoning than the man who is demanding his right. He (the defendant)
charms the people by his speech and takes away his right. His
statement "In knowledge there is ignorance" means: A scholar
brings to
his knowledge what he does not know, and thus he becomes ignorant of
that. His statement "In poetry there is wisdom" means: These are the
sermons and examples by which people receive admonition. His statement
"In speech there is heaviness" means: That you present your speech and
your talk to a man who is not capable of understanding it, and who does
not want it.
