00:0024, a podcast, poets whose poems killed them, with Dr. Nadine Al-As'ad.
00:24The victim of poetry, the letters of speech, and the meanings of thought that we will discuss in today's episode, is a poet who lived more than a thousand years ago.
00:36But he is still on the tongue of every Arab poet, and every writer and lover of poetry and literature.
00:45Perhaps he was born before his time, and perhaps he came up with ideas in an early age.
00:58Perhaps he had misjudged, and he fell into disrepute.
01:04He paid a price for the courage of his letters, and a punishment for adopting them in a foolish way, at a time when he was not mature enough to take them.
01:17And the result was not good for his body, but it gave him a name that no one can ignore in the world of poetry, thought, and literature.
01:37Oh, Nassim, the wind, tell me about the dew. The rose only made me thirst.
01:47I have a lover whose love is in the middle of the grass. If he wants, he can walk on the twigs.
01:57His soul is my soul, and my soul is his soul. If he wants, I will love him, and if he wants, I will love him.
02:06He is Al-Mughith Al-Husayn Ibn Mansur Ibn Mahma Al-Baydawi, and he is known as Abu Abdullah.
02:18He was born in the city of Tours, in the province of Fares, in 244 Hijri, 857 AD.
02:28His grandfather was a Magician.
02:31His father, Al-Iraq, entered Basra, and he was a professional potter.
02:36He and his family settled in the city of Wasit, between Basra and Baghdad.
02:41There, the potter, Al-Sibah, studied in the city of Katatib.
02:46At the beginning of his youth, he contacted the prominent Sufi, Suhail Ibn Abdullah Al-Tusturi.
02:53In 875, he moved to Basra, and he contacted another Sufi, Amr Ibn Uthman,
03:01where he was taught by him to occupy a prominent center in the middle of the Sufi in Basra,
03:08and then to reside in its council, worshiped and circumcised.
03:13There were disputes in Basra that he did not leave.
03:17So he went to Mecca to perform the Fard of Hajj.
03:20Then he stayed there for a whole year and practiced Sufi sports.
03:30When he returned from Mecca, the Abbasid state, which was suffering from the Zinj revolution,
03:36was strict with the people of the culture.
03:40He moved to the Awhaz as a preacher, then to Kharasan.
03:45He did not settle there, so he returned to the Awhaz, and from there to Baghdad.
03:51From Baghdad, he went to Mecca to perform Hajj again.
03:56From Mecca, he went to India and China.
03:59In India, he became more mature and learned self-control.
04:04He formed a new religion and style, and decided to spread it among the people after returning to his homeland.
04:16Al-Hallaj made a pledge to himself before Allah,
04:20to sacrifice his life for the sake of this religion,
04:24which obliges him to remove all non-Islamic accumulations from himself,
04:29which are related to himself and his mind.
04:32He wrote in this regard,
04:35Al-Hallaj went and secretly invited people to his new religion,
04:39which is to overcome the spirit on the body.
04:43He was a believer that if he failed to spread his religion,
04:48his death would be the cause of his death.
04:52Al-Hallaj did not believe in this religion,
04:55but he believed that if he did not spread his religion,
04:59if he did not fail to spread his religion,
05:02his death would be the cause of people's trust in him,
05:06appreciation of his sacrifice.
05:08He saw an example in Christ, where he said in this regard,
05:13My beloved ones, do I not say that I sailed the sea and the ship broke?
05:20On the religion of the cross is my death,
05:23and I do not want the slaughter nor the city.
05:28And here he means that he wants to die on his religion,
05:33similar to the cross of Christ.
05:42Al-Hallaj secretly preached in Baghdad,
05:45the state of the spirit that he believed in for ten years.
05:49During this time, he lost the affection of his Sufi friends,
05:53and his lightness was clear in most of his poems.
05:58Al-Hallaj forged relations with the opposing sides of the Abbasid state,
06:03so his rulers felt the role played by Al-Hallaj to bring it down,
06:09when a man from Al-Basra, one of his former supporters,
06:14was arrested and put in prison for a long time.
06:19The prison did not prevent him from expressing himself,
06:23but the period of his imprisonment was one of the most difficult years of his life,
06:28where he achieved his famous book, Al-Tawasin,
06:33and it is said that the officials responsible for his prison took advantage of him,
06:38so they made it easy for him.
06:41Al-Hallaj was transferred from prison to prison several times,
06:46until he ended up in prison in the palace of the Caliph.
06:50There, he met with compassion from the crowd,
06:54where many were impressed by his idea.
06:57As for the minister, Hamid ibn al-Abbas,
07:00he hated him very much,
07:04and he tried to transfer him from prison to prison in his house,
07:08where he went to punish him with retribution every day.
07:12And when Al-Hallaj was asked by his spokesman or blamed for his actions,
07:19he used to say,
07:21What is the condition of the servant?
07:23And fate is running on him in every case, O seeker.
07:30He threw him in the river, hidden,
07:33and said to him,
07:35Beware, beware of drowning in the water.
07:47Al-Hallaj was tried on the basis of Hamid ibn al-Abbas,
07:52and the title of the apparent accusation was,
07:56and the transgression of the divine being,
07:59depending on some of his sayings,
08:02such as,
08:03I am the truth, and the truth is me.
08:06And some of his poems, such as,
08:09Your soul is mixed in my soul,
08:12as wine is mixed with water.
08:17So if something touches you, it touches me.
08:21So if you are me, in every case.
08:28It is said that there is a secret reason for Al-Hallaj's trial,
08:34which is in fact a political one.
08:39Judges were chosen from a religion that does not allow retribution for the transgressor,
08:44so Al-Hallaj was sentenced to death.
08:47So Al-Wazir ibn al-Abbas rushed to execute the sentence,
08:52and himself notified of the execution,
08:55which was accompanied by excessive torture,
09:00where his face was cut off,
09:03his hands and legs were cut off,
09:06and he was beaten a thousand times,
09:09before striking his neck,
09:12and burning his body,
09:14and throwing his ashes in the river Dujla.
09:17That was in the year 922 AD,
09:21and it is mentioned that he did not commit suicide,
09:24despite all this torture.
09:27And so his dream came true,
09:30and he said,
09:32Kill me, my believers,
09:35for in my killing,
09:37is my life,
09:39and my death is in my life,
09:41and my life is in my death,
09:44I have my possessions,
09:47from the greatest of honors,
09:50and I remain in my attributes,
09:54from the worst of evils.
09:57This was Dr. Nadine Al-As'ad,
10:00follow me in the next episode,
10:03and I conclude with a poem saying,
