The Prophets praise often overlaps with the poems of Sufism and the poems of the Prophets birthday.The prophetic praises, as Zaki Mubarak says, are known as: “An art of poetry that Sufism spread, as it is a color of expression of religious emotions, and a door of high literature; Because it only comes from hearts full of sincerity and sincerityThe prophetic praise appeared early with the birth of the Messenger of Islam, Muhammad bin Abdullah, and was broadcast after that with the launch of the Islamic call and the poetry of the Islamic conquests.Religious literature appeared among the Arabs since the beginning of the Muhammadan message, and the first to praise the Messenger of Islam and Muslims were the poets who were commissioned by Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, to defend the Islamic call. Although the poets had preceded the Arabs in religious praises, they did not reach what the Arabs reached during the era of Islam. And if religious praises, sermons and asceticsWe did not notice in what reached us the poetry of the pre-Islamic people that indicates their religious rituals or intolerance to worship, although these poets were groups, including Christians, Jews, and idol worshipers. Despite these religious differences, which usually differentiated the members of society at that time, the wars that broke out between them were mostly tribal or ethnic. Among what has come down to us are fleeting references to monotheism that came in the poems of some Hanafi or Christian poets, such as Warqa bin Nawfal and Uday bin Zaid. And when Islam appeared, many of the Arabs of Mecca were not satisfied with the Muhammadan message, so they fought Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, with weapons as they fought him verbally, as they employed some of their poets to challenge the message of Islam and save Muslims, by calling for defending their religious beliefs, which is idolatry.In order to respond to these opponents, the Holy Prophet assigned three of the best Muslim poets to defend the Muhammadiyah message, namely Hassan bin Thabit, Kaab bin Malik and Abdullah bin Rawaha. Some of them fought the polytheists with the sword and the pen together, and some of them were martyred in the battle. However, the poetry of these people did not stop at defending the Messenger and his message. Rather, they composed poems praising the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon himThey praise the virtues of Islam. Hence, we can say that the religious poetry of the Arabs began with the prophetic praises.In the Holy Qur’an, we find many verses praising God, may He be glorified and exalted, and acknowledging His grace over creatures and His power. Therefore, the poets walked in reverence for God for what they saw in the secret of His creation in nature and the universe. Among the first Muslim poets to write in praise of God, Hassan bin Thabit, Hassan used the words that the believer repeats in prayer and worship, so he began to pray to God and bear witness to His grace. Hassan was the best role model for Muslim poets who composed religious praise.Poets praised all the prophets before Islam, but this was mentioned in the stanzas or folds of poetry, and it did not develop as poetry evolved in praising the Holy Prophet, the Seal of the Prophets, and in praising his message, and the poets combined the glorification of the Islamic message with the praise of the Messenger.
