INTERTEXTUALITY WITH THE HOLY QURAN IN AL-ORDBADI POETRY

Abstract

Religions, in general, have a significant impact on shaping human thought, and poets are affected, like others, by their beliefs, laws, and values, which have formed a major source of intertextuality for them. Regardless of critical opinions that deny the influence of religions, especially Islam, on literature and criticism,(1) Islamic sources of legislation have remained present in Arab literature, where the Holy Quran and the Prophet's Sunnah each played an important role in the Arab consciousness. Their impact appeared in the works of Al-Ordbadi and other poets of his time, and religious intertextuality became a part of Al-Ordbadi's culture, manifested in his poetry that reflected his religious beliefs. This research will discuss the use of the Holy Quran in the poetry of Al-Ordbadi.
