In the period of Abbasids, the maqamât took its place in prose as a literary genre and earned this reputation with al-Hamazânî and al-Harirî, one of the leading names of this genre. The maqâmât, which had a storyteller as a human element and based on the events that revolve around a hero, took place as a original literary genre and it is a valuable and literary production of Arabic language and culture in terms of language characteristics.
