بَدا حينَ أَثرى بِاِخوانِهِ

السياق · The story

Al-Jahiz praised Judge Ahmad ibn Abi Du'ad, Ibrahim ibn Rabah, and Muhammad al-Jahm with these verses. Accounts and editorial corrections indicate that poets competed in claiming these verses and praising Ibrahim ibn Rabah with them, until Al-Jahiz entered, praised him with them, and took money for them. Later, when Al-Jahiz was with Ibn Abi Du'ad, the latter praised the verses with which Abu Uthman (Al-Jahiz) had praised him, causing Ibrahim ibn Rabah to be astonished at Al-Jahiz's lack of shame in praising Ibn Abi Du'ad with a poem he had previously used to praise Ibrahim.
