Subject: Rhyming Dictionary Query

An American Arabic learner and aspiring Arabic poet has asked me if rhyming
dictionaries exist for Arabic.  Since I have no idea, I'm asking you.  Do
Arab poets ever make use of lexicographic tools to help them find rhymes or
words with particular patterns to fit their meters?   What kinds of tools?
