Complexity is a critical criterion according to Al-Hadhrami (D.975A.H.) in the book “Tanbih Al-Adib” on what is in the poetry of Abu Al-Tayyib from the good and the defective
Abstract
Complexity is one of the conditions for eloquence, and Arab rhetoricians have identified conditions for eloquence, and what violates these conditions is complexity. What is meant by complexity is: composing speech in a way that is difficult to understand due to its poor arrangement, which is moral complexity. Al-Hadhrami (D. 975 A.H.), author of the book (Al-Adib Al-Adib on what is in the poetry of Abu Al-Tayyib from the good and the defective), and Al-Hadhrami wanted me to reveal this defect in which the poet (Al-Mutanabbi) put it, whether the complexity was due to poor arrangement or disputes in speech in the introduction and delay or by deletion without Necessity, has been investigated Al-Hadhramis Complexity in Al-Mutanabbis Poetry and His Statement, then the study attempted to investigate the complexity of other critics and rhetoricians, reinforcing the opinion of Al-Hadhrami, such as Ibn Tabataba, Ibn Rashiq Al-Qayrawani, Abdul-Qaher Al-Jurjani, Al-Qazwini and others.
