The Culture of Sanctification and Desecration of the Sacred

Abstract

 The poets tried to enter into pre-Islamic beliefs and return them to the Islamic era, in order to make them cultural patterns circulating among the social circles, so the voice of the blatant self-outside the Islamic system, violating the sanctity of a religion, emerged as an attempt by them to change the intellectual structures of the collective mind, by changing the Islamic rules and its permissibility. The taboos and sanctification of the profane to have a positive pattern practiced by the social system and accepted by the collective consciousness for a purpose that was able to shake the Islamic religion and undermine it because it came with beliefs that contradict their intellectual and cultural references that are steeped in the wanderings of the world and its amusements. Through cultural phrases and systemic connotations that have emerged in their literary texts, and not only that, but what we found in the poets’ texts is a change in the poetic path because the poetry of the Islamic era was overwhelmed by the religious character that urges the entry of Islam. The rest of the poets dealt with it.
