Beskrivelse
Arab literature covers too many aspects of life in pre-Islamic and Islamic eras. One of these aspects the relationships between male and female. Omar bin Abi Rabi'ah was famous in early Islam as the one who found a new style to describe women in sweet language of love. He was known to speak of his wishes to almost all women he met. This book describes the poet and his supposedly girl-friends, different from modern times girl-friends. It was narrated that Omar had over 20 women mentioned in his poetry, sometimes under nicknames. This a book of love, after the shine of Islam in Hijaz. The book is part of Ihyaa al Turath al Arabi fil Mahjar (Revival of Arab heritage in Diaspora) project supported by the Arab American Encyclopedia originated by the author, a well known Arab American scholar, poet, and author of more than 200 books, who initiated the two projects to serve the new first and second Arab children generations in Diaspora. Dr. Yahya resides in Michigan-USA, and has four children and ten grandchildren.
