In 1207, the first comprehensive grammar book of the Arabic language was compiled, laying the foundation for Arabic linguistics. This work significantly influenced the study and understanding of Arabic, contributing to the preservation and evolution of the language. The establishment of grammatical rules allowed for greater clarity in literary expression, impacting poetry and prose.

The compilation of Arabic grammar facilitated the development of poetic forms and styles, enabling poets to experiment with language and structure. This advancement allowed for a richer exploration of themes and emotions in poetry, as poets like Al-Ma'arri would later utilize these grammatical innovations in their works.
