| Abstract | ||||
| The poem of praise of the Prophet began with defense of Islam, like what is existed in the poems of Hassan bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him), or an apology for what happened in the pre-Islamic era, like Lamiyt Kaab bin Zuhair (may Allah be pleased with him).

He influenced by Al-Busairi, and surpassed his teacher, and he recognized for his precedency and ingenuity, when Al-Busairi says in his Burda: - Then travelled at night from one sacred place to another, just as the full moon travels through intenso darkness. Shawqi excels in emulation, and emerges from emulation to the new distinct artistic creativity, with a great talent for visualization, vocabulary selection and sentence formation, with the magic of the captivating musical melody: - God conveyed you by night to the Al-Aqsa Mosque, where his angels and messengers stood. With this artistic superiority, we see Shawqi's politeness with Al-Busairi, his teacher and the teacher of eulogizers: - Eulogizers and lovers of passion are subservient, to the owner of old wild Burda. - Allah is witness that I do not oppose him, who is opposing towards the great? | ||||
