بَابُ مَا جَاءَ فِي الرُّخْصَةِ فِي الشِّعْرِ مَا لَمْ يَكُنْ شِرْكًا أَوْ هِجَاءَ مُسْلِمٍ
Reports on the permission of poetry so long as it is not polytheism or satire of a Muslim
Majma al-Zawaid 13320 — Reports on the permission of poetry so long
وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ : رَخَّصَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فِي شِعْرِ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ ، إِلَّا قَصِيدَتَيْنِ لِلْأَعْشَى إِحْدَاهُمَا فِي أَهْلِ بَدْرٍ ، وَالْأُخْرَى فِي عَامِرٍ وَعَلْقَمَةَ . رَوَاهُ كُلُّهُ الْبَزَّارُ وَأَبُو يَعْلَى بِاخْتِصَارٍ ، وَفِي إِسْنَادِهِمَا مَنْ لَا تَقُومُ بِهِ حُجَّةٌ .
In one narration the words are: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) permitted the poetry of the days of ignorance, except for two odes of al-A'sha: one of them is about the people of Badr, and the other is about Amir and Alqamah. Al-Bazzar recorded all these narrations, and Abu Ya'la recorded them in abridged form. In the chains of both are narrators who cannot be relied upon as proof.
