Book description: *Book: (Jumhura Ash'ar Al-Arab) known abbreviately as (Al-Jumhura) by Abu Zaid Al-Qurashi. An important author who compiled a selected collection of pre-Islamic, transitional, and Islamic Arab poetry, including poems that were not included in any previous book. It thus became a reference among the major books of Arabic literature and its foundations, preserving our rich library heritage of knowledge. The reader discovers the reason for the book’s compilation immediately upon beginning to browse it, as Al-Qurashi states at the start of his literary introduction: ("This is the collection of Arab poetry in the Pre-Islamic era and Islam, those whose tongues the Quran was revealed in, and from whose words the Arabic language was derived, and whose poetry is used as evidence in the meanings of speech, and wisdom and morals are attributed to them. This is because, after them, no poet existed except that he was compelled to steal from the beauty of their words, and at that time, they alone were sufficient for others to know.") The author entices the readers to continue reading his captivating introduction, which discusses the language of poetry and the language of the Holy Quran, explaining how the Quran aligned with the meanings of Arab words and poetry, and tracing the beginning of Arabic poetry. In addition to his literary introduction, the book contains forty-nine poems from the finest pre-Islamic and Islamic poetry, arranged in seven groups, each consisting of seven poems, with each group ordered from the pre-Islamic era to the Umayyad period. The book’s first group includes the owners of the Mu'allaqat, also known as "Al-Sumut". The second group includes the owners of the Majmharat. The third group includes the owners of the Muntaqiyat.
