Abstract

Objectives: This paper discusses the controversy raised by the well-known Muwashshah “Dahikun 'an Juman” of Al-A'ma al-Ttutayli. This controversy appears at the level of the linguistic phrase, occurring between a Rhetoric and Gnostic vision.

Methods: The research relied on the inductive approach in investigating the cognitive and historical frameworks of the research topic, and the immanent reading of the language revealed according to the mystical vision.

Results: The research revealed the dialectical relationship that established the language of the Muwashshah by referring the signifiers in it to the mental mystical, not the sensory, graphic, which confirms the mystical vision in the Muwashshah, and showed that it is based on a mystical vision in its poetic style, which shows the necessity of paying attention to the mystical style in its presence in the Muwashshah and poetic texts for poets who were not known to be affiliated with Sufism.

Conclusions: The paper concludes that the poetics of Al-A'ma al-Ttutayli’s Muwashshah “Dahikun 'an Juman” is built based on a Gnostic vision embodied in a special relationship with language. Through this vision, language is taken out of its stable purposes in Arabic expression. This relationship explains the historical, aesthetic and influential value of the Muwashshah.
