Abstract
Poetic works sometimes represent realistic experiences with comprehensive dimensions in existential matters. They provide poets with the pretext and means to demonstrate their ideas and visions, which are necessarily linked to human identity and the consolidation of religious, cultural, political, and social affiliations. Al-Abbas ibn Mirdas al-Sulami devoted a portion of his poetic output to formulating a vision expressing his religious identity, including its doctrinal dimension and the foundational principles of individual and collective religiosity. The poet attempted to summarize his personal perspective on the topics of God and prophecy, in addition to clarifying his personal willingness to fulfill the requirements of Islam by supporting the Prophet in his wars and battles, and to spread the values of his divine message throughout the Arabian Peninsula
