CARRETERO RANGEL, Reyna. Muslim Poetic: Songs to the Beloved Woman. Muahmmud Ibn Al-Mahad. Acta poét [online]. 2014, vol.35, n.2, pp.69-81. ISSN 2448-735X.

The purpose of this article is to share the discovery of the mystical songs of muslim poet Muahmmud Ibn Al-Mahad. His poems disclose our poetic and mystical ancestral wealth, since the Muslim legacy, as well as the Greek and Hebrew, are part of our civilization matrix. The uruguayan poet Saúl Ibargoyen through the narrative identity of Al-Mahad, whom unveils as one Other on himself, has configured a very special kind of poetic mirror, close to a palimpsest sui géneris where we find the signs of an eternal scripture, which approach us to the Beloved woman's beauty and the desert as images of the mystical experience. In the Al-Mahad' songs we find out the profound traces of the well-known Sufi poet Yalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi, who expressed in his verses the union with his beloved (tawhid) the Perfect One. Also we perceive on his poems the delicate fragrance of Ibn 'Arabî, called al Shaykh al-Akbar, "The Great Master", who gaves us the gift of the "unity of the divine Essence". The Real Being is incomparable and transcendent, but unveils itself as divine manifestation (tajallí) in all things. Thus, Al-Mahad's verses configure this relation between love and unity to express with all subtleness the passion for the Beloved woman, as we appreciate in this poem: "In the book came from the Highest, is written also the silence of the zeal that cross your heart. Love the Beloved woman with that silence and the book will have new words for you".
