Abstract: Arabic language literature means the best words in the best order. It serves as a mirror which reflects all the humanistic activities in people social life. Their outlook on life, their ideas, emotions and traditions. Literature consists of prose and poetry. Poetry as the main branch of Arabic literature. It has been defined as the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings, or the expression of imagination. For the Arabic critics, poetry is a rhythmical composition of words expressing an attitude designed to surprise and delight and to arouse an emotional response.    

The Arabs believe in poetic inspiration, for them poetry is a holy thing, and there is no invention in the poet's mind until he has been inspired. God takes away the minds of poets, and uses them as his ministers, as he also uses diviners and holy prophets.

Keywords:  Invention, inspiration, classical, direct influence, literary phases.
