14Fourteenth: the traits of the writer's style
The style of the historian: hefixes the dates, the names and the events, and lays out his evidence.
Hebegins by defining Jerusalem with rhymed-prose attributes — such as"the place where the eye of Musa is set, the goal of the heart of ʿIsā" — so hejoins literature to history.
Heanswers the opponent with sources rather than with emotion, and thenbuilds the judgement on evidence.
Argumentative phrasing, such as"and what the ancient sources confirm is that…".
Hequotes documented texts — the wording of the Assurance and the sermon of the liberation — to strengthen the proof.
His position: the school of national history that defends the Arab-Islamic identity.
