UTJECAJ ISLAMA NA NASTANAK I RAZVOJ UZRITSKE POEZIJE
IMPACT OF ISLAM ON THE ORIGIN AND DEVELOPMENT OF UZRIT POETRY

Summary/Abstract: Uzrit love poetry is the poetry of Arabian desert, which originated in the valley of Wadi al-Qura as an expression of strong poetic feelings and a love to only one woman. As such, Uzrit poetry is the embodiment of Arabic platonic love, deeply rooted in the heart of the desert poets. Islam undoubtedly had a strong influence on the formation and development of this poetry, through propagation and affirmation of virtue, morality and nobility. Islam encouraged and developed modest and moral poetry through its teachings about chastity and morality. This poetry had achieved its peak in the poetry of Uzrit poets.
