Abstract

The study aims at showing the techniques of the Quran Interextualite which Ibn Al-Mu'taz made use of in his poems written in meter, these poems in which he wrote the history of Al-Mu'tadedh Caliph's achievements. It, first, attempts to identify the concept of “Interextualite" briefly. The study also gives a brief definition of "the poem in meter" as well as introduces the reason for writing it. In addition, the study traces the Interextualite and its indications in his "poem in meter". It is important to mention that there is a focus on the poet's use of the Quran text through tracing the verses and the stories of the Quran which the poet inspired from in his "poem in meter". Finally, the study concludes that Ibn Al-Mu'taz was able to paraphrase what he had inspired from the Quran and to merge it in the texture of his text so as it appears as if he actually speaks not the Quran text.
