Abstract: I’tidhār and isti’ṭāf poetry is a kind of poem which the poet uses to express his regret for the satires he speaks about the rulers or to clear himself from the slanders or to apologize and seek for mercy from the rulers in the face of the negative situation caused by jealous people. In these poems, the slandered poet generally speaks of the services, wars and good character of the one from whom he seeks forgiveness and praises him. Afterwards, he tries to express his innocence in the face of the slander he fell victim to. In the period of Andalusian Caliphate, there are many poets who have been imprisoned for a slander against him and a political incident or a similar situation.
