Abstract





The secret that prompted us to study the poetic introductions of Abu Dhu'ayb al-Hudhali lies not only in their repetition، but also because they are presented in a variety of meanings، forms، and themes. This is what arouses a desire for them. The poet composes a poem، then produces another، which insists on the memory of the avid reader for reading، analysis، and influence. Words possess a charm، power، and influence on the recipient، akin to the work of magic on souls and bodies. These words make us feel their sadness، joy، grief، and worries، bringing us into direct confrontation with them despite the distance in time and place and their physical departure. Through these introductions، we learn of their inability to comprehend the dangerous secret hidden in eternal time، eternal homes، trees، and other monuments. As he sees it spinning rapidly and repeatedly، everything appears before the poet، but he is deceived and unconscious، unable to understand or decipher it. These introductions interpret his relationship with existence، a relationship that is not without fear and illusion، and reveal the spiritual crisis he was experiencing، which the Holy Quran mourns
