"Abou Ben Adhem" is a poem by Leigh Hunt, a key figure of the Romantic movement in England. The poem focuses on an event in the life of the Sufi saint Ibrahim bin Adham (anglicized to Abou Ben Adhem). Ben Adhem encounters an angel, who is writing a record of those who love God.
Abou Ben Adhem in Leigh Hunt's poem with the same name refers to the Sufi Saint, Ibrahim ibn Adham. Upon awakening from his 'deep dream of peace', Abou encounters an angel writing something on a book of gold. In the presence of the angel, his room was brightly lit.
End Rhyme: End rhyme is used to make the stanza melodious. For example, “rest/blest”, “night/light” and “room/bloom.” Rhyme Scheme: The poem follows the ABAB rhyme scheme, and this pattern continues till the end. Stanza: A stanza is a poetic form of some lines.
The central idea of a poem is the poem's theme or 'what it's about' if you like. Although many shy away from poems being 'about' something, at the end of the day, the poet had something in mind when it was written, and that something is the central idea, whatever it is or might have been.
Leigh Hunt carries a simple yet very important message : of loving and caring for one's fellow men and women. The poem uses a mystical experience by a man called Abou Ben Adhem to demonstrate the importance of love, compassion and fraternity among fellow him an beings.
