Reading the poet's words: A chapter on the description of the brides of Paradise, their beauty, their loveliness, the pleasure of their union, and their dowries (The student did not recite these verses, but I have recorded them because they exist in the poem at this location)

The reader: "Chapter: On the description of the brides of Paradise, their beauty, their loveliness, the pleasure of their union, and their dowries
O you who circumambulate the Ka'bah of beauty, which was built with that stone and its pillars
And who constantly strive around al-Safa, whose place of striving is not the two hills
And who seek the nearness of union at Mina, while the valley prevents him from that nearness
Therefore, you see him in a state of consecration forever, and the place of his release from it is not far from him
He seeks to combine the two pilgrimages, alone in his love, stripped of all else, seeking the intercessor of the combined pilgrimage
So he continues to throw his heart at the pillars; these are his rites in every season
And the people have completed their rites and have urged their mounts toward their homelands
And their ambitions and resolutions have turned them toward the dwellings of the first of times
The banners of union have been raised for them in their journey, so roll up your sleeves, O you who are the ruin of the lazy one
And they saw in the distance tents towering, shining with light and proof
So they headed toward those tents and found therein moons without any defect
From those who cast down their eyes, seeking none but their beloved among all the young men
She cast her eyes upon him because of his beauty, and the eyes in this face are for the women
Or perhaps she cast her eyes upon him because of her beauty, for the eyes are for the men
And the first is the established meaning from the placement of the word, so do not deviate from the apparent meaning of the Qur'an
And perhaps his indication points to the second, and that is an indication of a hidden meaning".
