Among the verbal and semantic devices and the various forms of imaginative expression, allusion is one of the most important instruments through which poets swiftly convey their beliefs and ideas to their audience. Therefore, a close reading of the allusions employed in a poet’s oeuvre can thus yield insight into the intellectual traditions and ideological underpinnings that inform their work. Following the advent of Islam, the growing familiarity of people with Islamic teachings, together with the interweaving of the Qur’an and Hadith into daily life, created fertile ground for the flourishing of Islamic thought and literary expression. Consequently, allusions to religious and spiritual concepts gradually found its way into poet’s works. These allusions not only enriched the thematic and conceptual layers of poetry but also played a significant role in promoting and elucidating religious beliefs. Research has it that that Ibn Husam Khusfi, a prominent 9th-century Shi‘i poet, frequently employed allusions to Qur’anic and religious concepts in his diwan. In many cases, his references go beyond a superficial application, reaching into the deeper layers of Qur’anic meaning and reflecting the profound internalization of these concepts in both the poet’s mind and verse. Drawing on familiarity with Qur’an-memorization practices, the authors argue that Ibn Husam Khusfi’s odes of divine unity and supplication exhibit a particularly direct and intimate connection with the verses of the Holy Qur’an, manifested through nuanced allusions and subtle references embedded within the latent layers of his poetry.
