Overview
Abd Allah ibn Muhammad al-Ahwas, a poet. 1
Al-Ahwas and Hababa
Al-Mas'udi relates that Hababa, a slave-girl of Yazid ibn Abd al-Malik, sent to him and to Ma'bad the singer. He replied with verses on pleasure and life, calling on whoever has not loved to become a hard stone. 1
The data have not established that he is the al-Ahwas al-Ansari named in al-Ahwas al-Ansari, nor the date of the report, which need an additional source.
