In the pre-Islamic period, known as Jahillyya (Ignorance Age), reporting of Ayam al- Arab ( regular wars of the time) in the framework of oral tradition of transmitting narratives, were presented with exaggeration and exaltation and mixed with poetry , stories, myths and epics. After Islam, narrators continued practically the same trend of reporting war, under the new title of Maghazi and Futuh.
This paper studies influence of techniques and approach of narrating wars of the pre-Islamic period on Maghazinarratives. The author by comparing and contrasting of war narratives of these two periods, argues that as a result of active role of some poets and narrators of Ayam al-Arab in Maghazi and in report activities, oral tradition of war narrating of pre-Islamic period effected on Maghazi’s reports.
