بَابُ الشِّعْرُ حَسَنٌ كَحَسَنِ الْكَلَامِ وَمِنْهُ قَبِيحٌChapter: Poetry Is Good Like Good Speech, and Some Is Bad
Hadith 866
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ تَلِيدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي جَابِرُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، وَغَيْرُهُ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ تَقُولُ: الشِّعْرُ مِنْهُ حَسَنٌ وَمِنْهُ قَبِيحٌ، خُذْ بِالْحَسَنِ وَدَعِ الْقَبِيحَ، وَلَقَدْ رَوَيْتُ مِنْ شِعْرِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَشْعَارًا، مِنْهَا الْقَصِيدَةُ فِيهَا أَرْبَعُونَ بَيْتًا، وَدُونَ ذَلِكَ.
Narrated from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she used to say: There are good poems and bad poems. Take the good poems and leave the bad ones. I have narrated many poems from Sayyiduna Ka'b bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him). Among them is a qasida which contains forty verses, and there are others as well.
