He is known for his love poetry and for being one of the originators of the literary form ghazel in Islamic literature.[3] He was "impassioned by everything beautiful that he saw in the street or during pilgrimage.".[4] According to Ibn Khallikan, the most prominent object of his affections was al-Thuraya bint Ali Ibn Abd Allah Ibn al-Harith Ibn Omaiya al-Ashghar Ibn Abd Shams Ibn Abd Manāf, granddaughter of the famous poet Qutayla bint al-Nadr, who married Suhail Ibn Abd al-Rahmān Ibn Auf al-Zuhri, on which occasion Umar recited the following famous verses, which pun on the fact that the married couple's names are both names of heavenly bodies (Suhail being Canopus and al-Thuraiya being the Pleiades):
O thou who joinest in marriage ath-Thuraiya and Suhail, tell me, I pray thee, how can they ever meet? The former rises in the north-east, and the latter in the south-east![5]
