Abstract
The Menhaj Al-Bolagha and Seraj Al-Odaba by Hazem Qartajeni is one of the most effective books on rhetoric and theory of Arabic poetry. Although he was grown up in an environment influenced by Ibn Rushd and is considered his indirect student, in this book (with a rhetoric and philosophical style) he is under the influence of Ibn Sina in founding and presenting the theory of Arabic poetry. Without mentioning the name of Ibn Rushd, he continually recites Ibn Sina's expressions and uses his views as a basis of his theory considering questions such as imitation, imagery, prosody, and true & false. Hazem in his book Menhaj Al-Bolagha tryied to implement Avicinna's promise in utilizing pure knowledge for theorizing poetry.
