 read in some of the news of the arabs that their women are not convinced or believe in the love of a lover for them until he becomes famous and reveals his love and declares it and announces it and mentions them and i do not know what this means although he mentions chastity about them and what chastity is there with a woman whose greatest desire and pleasure is fame in this sense!
وقرأت في بعض أخبار الأعراب أن نساءهم لا يقنعن ولا يصدقن عشق عاشق لهن حتى يشتهر ويكشف حبه ويجاهر ويعلن وينوه بذكرهن، ولا أدري ما معنى هذا، على انه يذكر عنهن العفاف، وأي عفاف مع امرأة أقصى مناها وسرورها الشهرة في هذا المعنى!
