Abstract

Since every rule has its exceptions, it is necessary to shed light on a poet who has constants that did not change with the change in political circumstances that faced the Fatimid state, unlike the rest of the poets who were subjected to this state with praise or censure, or with both praise and censure, such as Al-Fazari or Sahl Al-Warraq who defeated Ubayy. Yazid Al-Kharji, like most of the jurists of Kairouan, despite the difference in doctrinal structure, believed that the revolution of the owner of the donkey would rid them of the rule of the Fatimids, and here the difference between Amara and his peers - who wander in every valley - becomes clear, like the difference between a pearl and a wasteland, and these constants that Amara remained adherent to made him pay with his life.
