Abstract

Scholars and researchers, such as Brockelman and Nicholson, associate the origin of Arabic literature, as well as other world literatures that also arose, with witchcraft or divination. According to Brockelman, the origin of Arabic poetry - this is witchcraft, and it arose from the muttering of sorcerers and their intonations. While Nicholson connects ancient Arabic poetry with divination, in his opinion, the soothsayer is the reference point (authoritative source) of the tribe, and they turn to him in their wars and reconciliations, as well as in the management of their affairs, and on his divination (opinion) is based on the whole tribe. In the pre-Islamic era, the Quraysh language prevailed in literature and poetry over other tribes because of its religious status and the position of its people among the Arabs. When the era of Islam and after it the epochs came into the present, the social character prevailed over the tribal character, poetry became the expression of the direction of one nation, instead of individual tribes. The music of poetry began to correspond to music that corresponds to the meaning that the poet aspires to, this is how the music of words and letters appeared, which has become an integral part of Arabic poetry and poetic poetry in the modern era.
