Explanation of the seven long pre-Islamic poems

The Mu'allaqat are among the most famous of what the Arabs wrote in poetry, and they were called Mu'allaqat because they are like precious necklaces hanging in minds. It is said that these poems were written with gold water and hung on the curtains of the Kaaba before the coming of Islam, and these poems are considered the most wonderful and most valuable of what was said in ancient Arabic poetry. Therefore, people paid attention to them, recorded them, and wrote explanations for them. They usually begin with mentioning ruins and the homes of the poet's beloved, and these Mu'allaqat are from his love for him, a special fame. It is said that Hamad Al-Rawi was the first to compile the seven long poems and called them Mu'allaqat (Al-Samoot). He used to say that they are the most beautiful of what the Arabs said, and the Arabs used to call them Al-Samoot (Mu'allaqat). Writers and scholars after him studied them, such as Ibn Al-Kalbi and Ibn Abd Al-Rahman Al-Ahdab Al-Fareed, who added in his book the matter of hanging them on the Kaaba. You may find seven poems in each old book, but some of them added a poem for a poet and omitted another poem. So they were confused about who the seven are. They made it ten.
