Literature[edit]
He was a Maghreb poet who often imitated Al-Mashareq in his purposes and style, and Omar Farroukh said of him, “With some eloquence and beauty of style, despite the weakness of his style at times. He did not mention Sicily in his poetry. Rather, he had many characteristics of Egyptian poets in the Fatimid era, which indicates that most of his poetry was said in Egypt, and perhaps a large part of his life was also in Egypt". The arts of his poetry praise, satire, lamentation, description and spinning. In his poetry, he mentions some of his praisers, such as Ibn Hamdan, al-Yazuri, Bani al-Mawaqqi, and Ibn al-Madbir.
Al-Imad Al-Isfahani mentioned that he has a collection of poetry, in which he said: “I read in a total of free-form poetry, more than ruby and pearl, attributed to Abu Al-Hassan bin Abi Al-Bishr, and it includes meanings of gharar.” His Diwan was edited by Hilal Naji and published in 1976.[1] [3]He had good connections with the poets of his time, including his connection with Abu Sulayman bin Hebat Allah the writer.[1]
