Somali literature refers to the literary tradition of Somalia. It ranges from Islamic poetry and prose produced by the region's scholars and Sheikhs of centuries past to works of fiction from contemporary writers. ==Islamic literature== The Islamic literature of Somalia dates back to the early 14th century, with Uthman bin Ali Zayla'i producing ''Tabayin al-Haqa’iq li Sharh Kanz al-Daqa’iq'', one of the most referenced books in the Hanafi school of Islam. Sayyid Muhammad Abdullah Hassan (1864–1921), the celebrated religious and nationalist leader, also left a considerable amount of manuscripts. One of the better-known examples of Somali Islamic literature is ''Maja'mut al-Mubaraka'', a work written by Shaykh Abdullah al-Qalanqooli and published in Cairo in 1918. Shaykh Abd Al-Rahman bin Ahmad al-Zayla'i also produced many Islamic-orientated manuscripts in the 19th century. In addition, poetry in the form of Qasidas was also popular among Somali Sheikhs, the latter of whom produced thousands of such works in praise of Prophet Muhammad. ;English translation: :Whenever you wish to make easy your objective :Then give a prayer to your Messenger, the best of Guides :And say seeking aid in every circle :Blessings of God and the crier cries :On the chosen our Master the Praised :Beloved of God preferred to those who ascended :His tomb is above any Throne or High Place :As is Every pious place sincerely :Musk and Spices give fragrance, truly :To the tomb of Muhammad, light of Heart :Every aspect of the Habib gives light :The one who seeks him sees the lights with goodness :The distance meets it along with the near :It will encompass the Family, the neighbours of the Beloved :As well as people of the community with knowledge of his fragrance 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Somalian literature」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
