1. The poetry of Hassaan was not suitable for the Prophet
Nor was it his glorification
١. لُغَى حَسَّانَ لَم تَكُ لِلنَّبِيهِ
بِلاَئِقَةٍ ولَم تَكُ تَطَّبِيهِ
2. So he turned to versifying, for in it

٢. فَحَىَّ عَلَى القَرِيضِ فَإِنَّ فِيهِ

٣. ولَيسَ المَرءُ إِن يَكُ قَاصِراً عَن
طِبَاعِ أبِيهِ ِإلاَّ كَالسَّفِيهِ
