(الشِّعْرُ الْحَسَنُ كَلَامٌ حَسَنٌ، وَالشِّعْرُ السَّيِّئُ كَلَامٌ سَيِّئٌ، بِرِوَايَةِ الشَّافِعِيِّ)
(Good poetry is good speech, bad poetry is bad speech, as narrated by Shafi’i)
Mishkat al-Masabih 4808 — Good poetry is good speech, bad poetry
وروى الشَّافِعِي عَن عُرْوَة مُرْسلا
Imam Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) narrated it as mursal from Urwah. Its chain of narration is very weak. Narrated by Al-Shafi'i.
