50 raisons d’être enthousiaste à l’arrivée de ramadan

A la période pré-islamique, comme à l’époque du Prophète (paix et bénédiction sur lui) la poésie tenait une place particulière chez les Arabes. On s’en rend très rapidement compte lorsqu’on lit par exemple l’histoire de la vie du Prophète (paix et bénédiction sur lui) par Ibn Ishaq. Le récit est parsemé de poèmes.

Aujourd’hui les musulmans se réapproprient la poésie, notamment par le slam, sans musique. Ça plaît aux uns, déplaît aux autres. Ci-dessus, Hisham al-Hadi, un musulman américain, énonce cinquante raisons d’être enthousiaste à l’arrivée de ramadan.
