Here is the Muallaqah of Antarah, my favorite pre-Islamic poet. • Antarah ibn Shaddad al-Absi was an Arab knight and poet, famous for both his poetry and his adventurous life. At the beginning of his live, he was a slave, born to an Ethiopian princess who had been taken as a captive by his father during one of the tribe's raids against Axum. • He gained attention and respect for himself by his remarkable personal qualities and courage in battle, excelling as an accomplished poet and a mighty warrior. • He earned his freedom after another tribe invaded the lands of the Banu ʿAbs. When his father said to him, ʿAntarah, fight with the warriors , he replied that the slave doesn't know how to invade or how to defend, but is only good for milking goats and serving his masters . His father answered him: Defend your tribe, O ʿAntar, and you are free . • After defeating the invaders, he sought to gain permission to marry his cousin. To secure allowance to marry, Antarah had to face challenges including getting a special kind of camel from the northern Arab kingdom of the Lakhmids, then under Al-Nu'man III ibn al-Mundhir. ʿAntarah took part in the great war between the related tribes of ʿAbs and Dhubyān, which began over a contest of horses, and was named after them the war of Dāhis and Ghabrā. • The translation is a mix of these two scripts: • https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/The_Po... • The record is from @روائعالشعرالجاهليوالإسلامي • All the channel content is vocal with no music.
