"Muhammad ibn Jabir al-Hawari al-Andalusi, the poet of eulogy for the Prophet, stands between the neglect of his contemporaries and the ignorance of modern scholars about him."

Abstract

This research explores the life and impact of an Andalusian scholar who left a notable legacy in Islamic scientific and cultural spheres through teaching and scholarly works. The study addresses the perplexity and astonishment arising from the clear neglect of his contemporaries, such as Kalsan al-Din Ibn al-Khatib, who provided a superficial translation of his works that failed to capture their essence. The oversight extended to modern scholars, resulting in confusion and misinterpretation of his life and contributions. The study aims to rectify and clarify these discrepancies, shedding light on the life and impact of this scholar for contemporary researchers.
