<![CDATA[The poem "Bānat Suʿād" by the noble Companion Kaʿb ibn Zuhayr is one of the finest and most renowned poems in Arabic literary history and heritage, rich in a vast array of poetry, stories, anecdotes, and literary gems. Kaʿb recited this poem in the presence of the Prophet Muhammad after his blood had been declared lawful, offering an apology through these verses. Scholars, both in the past and in modern times, have paid great attention to this Kaʿbite poem, explaining it, composing takhmīs (five-line expansions), parsing its grammar, and conducting various studies on it to the present day. The poem, also known as "al-Burda", sparked a wave of literary works, research, counter-poems, and more. One of the most prominent works in this context is the poem by Imam al-Būsīrī. His poem also came to be known as "al-Burda", "The Mantle Ode", and "al-Kawākib al-Durriyya fī Madḥ Khayr al-Bariyya" (The Celestial Lights in Praise of the Best of Creation). It, too, sparked a large body of commentary, imitations, and analyses. This study aims to present a comprehensive bibliography of the works written on this poem, including annotations, analyses, poetic imitations, takhmīs, references, and more. This will be achieved by dedicating this part of the research to the existing literature on "Bānat Suʿād", with references to the locations of manuscripts scattered across libraries worldwide, thereby facilitating researchers’ access to them for study, comparison, verification, publication, and dissemination to readers and specialists.]]>
