Elements of Arabic Rhetoric – Similes and Metaphors: Similes (Tashbih) and metaphors (Isti‘arah) are important elements of Arabic rhetoric used to make expressions clearer, more vivid, and beautiful; Tashbih compares two things using a similarity, while Isti‘arah gives the qualities or name of one thing to another without direct comparison.
