A comparative study of two odes by Aviccina and Nasib Arizah

The belief that the soul originates from the celestial world and is imprisoned in the material world as a result of neglect is a fundamental belief in mysticism. The sophis try to purify the soul through knowledge and wisdom before it unites with the God in the afterworld. Aviccina focuses on this purification in his Ode (Einieh) and the contemporary Arab poet،Nasib Arizeh،does the same in his long piece of poetry (Ala-Tarighe-Eram) and follows the example of Einieh. This paper comparatively explores the theme in these works.
