You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Muhammad Mahdi Al-Jawahiri''' (((lang-ar|محمد مهدي الجواهري ))) (26 July 1899 – 27 July 1997) was an [[Iraqi people|Iraqi]] poet.<ref name=IndepObit>Adel Darwish, 'Obituary: Mohammed Al-Jawahri', ''[[The Independent]]'', 11 August 1997. [https://archive.today/20130125120049/http://www.highbeam.com/doc/1P2-4869580.html Online] (subscription only) at [[HighBeam]].</ref> Considered by many as one of the best and greatest Arabian poets in the 20th century, he was also nicknamed '''The Greatest Arabian Poet''',<ref>((Cite web|url=http://www.khayma.com/salehzayadneh/poets/jawahiri/jaw_nobzah.htm|title=Al Jawahiri life))</ref> and is considered to be the national poet of Iraq. 

==Life==
Muhammad Mahdi Al-Jawahiri was born in 1899 in [[Najaf]] in [[Iraq]]. His father, 'Abd al-Husayn was a religious scholar among the clergy in Najaf who wanted his son to be a cleric as well. So he dressed him in a cleric's 'Abaya and turban at the age of ten. The origin of “Al-Jawahiri” goes back to his Najafi, Iraqi family. Since the 11th century Hijri (15th century CE), the most famous people have inhabited Najaf, and individuals named al-Najafi have earned the title “Bejeweled” (or al-Jawahiri) for their relationship to the book of fiqh values (religious scholarship) which one of his family's ancestors Shaykh Muhammad Hasan al-Najafi had written. The books were called “the jewel of speech in explaining the laws of Islam” and was composed of 44 volumes. Afterwards he was known as the “owner of the jewels,” and his family came to be called “bejeweled” (al-Jawahiri).

Al-Jawahiri read the Qur'an and did not memorize it at an early age. Then his father sent him to great teachers to teach him reading, writing, grammar, rhetoric and jurisprudence. His father and others planned for him to learn speech from [[Nahj al-Balagha]] and poetry from the works of [[Al-Mutanabbi|Abu Tayyib al-Mutanabi]].

Learning was organized at an early age and even in his childhood Al-Jawahiri displayed an inclination for literature. He began to read the [[Al-Jahiz#Kitab al-Bayan wa al-Tabyin (The Book of eloquence and demonstration)|Book of Eloquence and Demonstration]] by [[Al-Jahiz]] and the [[Muqaddimah]] by [[Ibn Khaldun]], and collections of poetry. It was early in his life when he first wore the clothing of a religious man and he participated in the [[Iraqi revolt against the British|1920 revolution]] against the British authorities.

In 1928, Al-Jawahiri published the volume "Between Feelings and Emotions," his first poetry collection which he had been preparing since 1924 to distribute under the title "The Dangers of Poetry in Love, Nation and Ode." He then worked for a short period in the court of [[Faisal I of Iraq|King Faysal I]] when he was crowned king of [[Iraq]] and when he was still wearing the turban of a cleric. Afterwards, Al-Jawahiri left the clergy as well as his work in Faysal's court. After he left Najaf for [[Baghdad]], he went to work in the press, and put out a group of papers – among them Al-Furat (The Euphrates), Al-Inqilab (The Coup), and Al-Ra'i al-'Am (The Common View). He was elected head of the [[Union of Iraqi Writers|union of Iraqi writers]] on several occasions.

His brother Jaafar was killed during the [[Al-Wathbah uprising]] of 1948, which inspired one of his most famous poems, [http://www.adab.com/modules.php?name=Sh3er&doWhat=shqas&qid=66886 "My Brother Jaafar."] He recited the poem at Haydarkhana mosque to an audience of Sunnis, Shia and Jews during the same month as the massacre. A verse from the poem, "Do you know or do you not know / that the wounds of victims are a mouth?" became an icon of modern Iraqi poetry.

==Legacy==
On January 2, 2024, the Iraqi government initiated a construction project to develop a new residential city named “Al-Jawahiri City” west of [[Baghdad]] with “30,000 housing units spread across more than 17.8 million m2”.<ref> ((cite web |title=Iraq initiates new $2bn residential city near Baghdad | url=https://www.constructionweekonline.com/projects-tenders/iraq-initiates-new-2bn-residential-city-near-baghdad|publisher=Construction Week))</ref>
