Wikipedia's own dedicated article on the Kharijites. States that Imran ibn Hittan is called "the greatest Kharijite poet" by the Arabist Michael Cooperson, that the sermons and poems of many Kharijite leaders were compiled into collections called diwans, that surviving Kharijite poetry centers on piety, activism, martyrdom and the afterlife, and that a modern scholarly compilation of this poetry was published by Ihsan Abbas in 1974.

Tier three, matching this database's established convention for Wikipedia citations: a community edited reference page with no editorial board standing behind any given version. Used here for the Imran ibn Hittan attribution and the 1974 Ihsan Abbas compilation date, cross checked against the Emirates Center for Strategic Studies and Research library catalog record, which independently confirms a later edition of the same anthology.
