Sociological investigation of praises of the Prophet in contemporary Arabic poetry in the light of Zalamanski's theory

Sociological studies of literary works can reveal significant aspects of the social awareness and sentiment prevalent during the time of their creation. In this context, the prophetic praises of contemporary Arab poets, composed following the unrest and turmoil in the Arab world, have become poems intermixed with dominant social, political, and combative issues. Consequently, contemporary Arab poetry is rich in symbolic language and applications, enabling it to fulfill a sensitive social and political role within Arab society. This influence of the social environment intensifies over time, leading to social and political events that play a pivotal role in shaping the content and trajectory of prophetic praises. From a sociological viewpoint, the prophetic poems of contemporary Arab poets are extensively intertwined with the social and political events of their society. This article employs a descriptive-analytical method based on a sociological approach to investigate the political and social perspectives evident in contemporary Arab prophetic praises. The results of this study show that contemporary Arab poets are seeking a new discourse aimed at promoting the prosperity and development of their society. Therefore, the praises of the Prophet in this era have abandoned their former individualistic focus in favor of a stronger social and combative dimension, frequently emphasizing the earthly and human personality of the Holy Prophet over his divine or royal attributes.
