pre-islamic women's literature seems to have been limited to the genre of "marathiya" ('elegy'). the earliest poetesses were al-khansa and layla al-akhyaliyyah of the 7th century. their concentration on the "ritha'" or elegy suggests that this was a form deemed acceptable for women to work with. however, the love lyric was also an important genre of women's poetry. the umayyad and 'abbasid periods saw professional singing slave girls ("qiyan", sing. "quayna") who sang love songs and accompanied these with music; alongside panegyric and competitive verse-capping, "qiyan" also sang love-poetry ("ghazal"). in his "risalat al-qiyan" ("epistle of the singing-girls"), al-jahiz (d. 255/868×69) reckoned that an accomplished singer might have a repertoire of 4,000 songs. pre-eminent 'abbasid singing-girls included: 'inan (paramour of harun al-rashid, r. 786-809); arib al-ma'muniyya (concubine of al-ma'mun, r. 813-17); and fadl ashsha'ira (d. 871; concubine of al-mutawakkil, r. 847-61). meanwhile, harun al-rashid's half-sister ‘ulayya bint al-mahdī (777-825) was also known for her poetic skills, as was the mystic and poet of basra rabi'a al-'adawiyya (d. 801). women also had an important role in pre-modern periods as patrons of the arts.
