Muhammad ibn Idris al-Shafi'i, known as Imam al-Shafi'i, is one of the leaders of the Sunnis who lived in the second century AH. He was renowned not only in jurisprudence but also in poetry, and if we look at him from the perspective of a poet rather than a jurist, we will notice his poetic flair. The Ahl al-Bayt (a.s.) have a special place in his poems that attracts the attention of every reader. In the poems he wrote about the Ahl al-Bayt (a.s.), after praising the Prophet's family and expressing his love for them, he considers love for them to be an obligation from God and the Quran, and urges everyone, regardless of ethnic or religious prejudice, to respect, appreciate, and value them, to the point that he considers not sending blessings and salutations upon the Prophet's family and family in prayer to invalidate one's prayer. Finally, he reminds us that in an era when everyone is lost and drowning in the sea of ​​jurisprudential and sectarian differences, we must cling to the rope of God, the family of the Prophet, and their ways and methods in order to be safe from the scourge of differences.

The honors of the Ahl al-Bayt (a.s.) are enough for all the jurisprudential and theological schools of Islamic sects, whether Shia or Sunni, to boast of them, and it can be said with boldness that even the most radical individuals from Islamic sects do not dare to dare to enter their sacred space.

Now, let us turn to some examples of Shafi'i's precious poems:

O family of the Prophet, your love is an obligation that has been stated by God in the Quran.

- This is enough for your greatness, the one who did not greet you in prayer, has no prayer, (his prayer is not valid)

Or

-The family of the Prophet is my support and they are the means for me to reach the Prophet

- I hope that on the Day of Judgment, they will give me the record of my deeds in my right hand.

A review of his poems is available from various sources, the following can be mentioned:

1- Loving the Ahl al-Bayt and the family of the Prophet without any intellectual or jurisprudential bias

2- Loving the Ahl al-Bayt is a recommendation taken from the Quran and the Prophet (PBUH), so that if someone does not send blessings and salutations on the Prophet and his family in his prayer, his prayer is not valid.

3- In the Quran, Allah means the Prophet and his pure family by the divine rope.

4- In times of disagreement, acting in the way and manner of the Prophet and his family leads to victory and salvation, and the right path is to follow the Prophet and his family.

5- Following the Prophet and his family will result in receiving the record of one's deeds in one's right hand on the Day of Judgment and ultimately happiness in eternal life.
