<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the intrinsic elements of the nazam Al-Kharidah al-Bahiyyah by Imam Ahmad bin Muhammad bin Abi Hamid al-‘Adawi, focusing on the aspects of ‘arudh (prosody), qafiyah (rhyme), and meaning. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach with a library research method. The data, comprising words, phrases, and poetic verses from Al-Kharidah al-Bahiyyah, were analyzed through a structural approach to reveal the relationship between the poem's physical and inner structures. The findings indicate that this nazam is predominantly composed in bahr rajaz using the mustaf‘ilun (taf‘ilah) pattern. It incorporates various forms of zihaf and ‘illat—such as khabn, ṭayy, qaṭ‘, and kaff—which create rhythmic, harmonious, and easily memorizable patterns. Regarding the qafiyah, the study identifies the use of both qafiyah muṭlaqah and muqayyadah, which enhance the poem's musicality. Semantically, the nazam systematically conveys the theology of Ahlussunnah wal Jama‘ah, including the categories of rational law (hukum akal), the attributes of Allah and the prophets, sam‘iyyat (eschatological matters), as well as Sufi and moral values. Therefore, this work holds significant aesthetic, spiritual, and pedagogical value within the Islamic educational tradition.]]>
