According to the Andalusi scholar Ibn al-Sīd al- Baṭalyawsī (d. 521/1127) adab is to be understood as a set of theoretical and practical knowledges connected with language, text and literature. This set of knowledges provides with tools for two different goals. While the major one is the understanding of the Holy Scripts, the minor one has to do with the skills of scribes. The needs of both interpreting technics and writing models justify the development of linguistics, philology, hermeneutics and poetics in pre-modem Islamic societies. Ibn al-Sīd´s ideas are analysed within the framework of the Qur'ānic concept of eloquence (bayān), and confronted with the actual textual uses of his society, as reflected by numismatic inscriptions.
