The present article studies this phenomen in the poem of Izz al-Din al- Manāsara within a descriptive-analytic method. The article intend to show beauties of defamiliarization and its manifestations in the poems of this poet. The results of the article show that the semantic defamiliarization is more frequent and the poet has been able to create an unkown and inspirating link between the signifier and signified by use of paradox and synesthesia. But the manifestations of defamiliarization in the syntactic layer are presented in the form hysteron proteron and parenthetical sentences. In phonetic layer, the amalgamation of taf?ils (prosodic paradigms) and use of phonotactics have been frequent. The poet embarked in abnormality by use of writing the words separately, giving a ladder-like shape to the poems lines and application of writing signs and deletion in writing structure. The most important form of abnormality in stylistic layer is the use of slangs within elegant words. Although the aesthetics of the use of defamiliarization application in general depends on its context of use, attracts the addressee's attention.
