? She refused to marry someone who could not beat her on the battlefield, until she reconciled with “the Devil.” What is the story of Al-Mayassa 11056 
The story of the love of Al-Mayassa and Al-Miqdad is one of the most beautiful Arab love stories that generations have passed on, perhaps with a bit of exaggeration. 
The story of Al-Mayassa and Al-Miqdad
In addition to her beauty and beauty, Al-Mayassa was an impeccable knight. It was said that she was of “moderate stature, with an asp cheek, a stiletto tip, a heavy buttock, a long neck, and a stature like a mile.”
Her beauty, intelligence, and equestrianism became widespread among the Arab tribes, so their masters and supervisors accepted her betrothal from her father, but Al-Mayassa swore that she would only marry someone who defeats her in a duel.
So the knights came from all sides to confront her, but she defeated them all.
Abu Jahl betrothed her to his son
It was said that Al-Mayassa’s reputation reached the Quraish, so that Abu Al-Hakam Amr bin Hisham “Abu Jahl” went with a delegation of Quraysh masters and notables to propose to her from her father, Jaber bin Al-Dahhak, to his son, but Al-Mayassa certainly did not abandon her condition.
Al-Mayassa was able to defeat her suitor on the battlefield, and she also defeated other Quraish masters who requested her for themselves.
The fight with the devil
While no one was able to outdo Al-Mayassa on the battlefields, her cousin Al-Miqdad bin Al-Aswad decided to fight her.
 Miqdad was poor, shepherded horses and camels, yet he was adept at fighting; He was keen to learn the arts of fighting and equestrianism.
So he borrowed from his uncle a spear, a mare, and a sword, and disguised himself so that no one would recognize him, and went to the battlefield asking to confront Al-Mayassa.
On the battlefield, the narrators said that Miqdad and Al-Mayassa obeyed us with spears until they broke, and they clashed with swords until they were grooved, and dust rose between them while they were in stabbing and hitting, hitting and running away.
After a battle that extended from noon until sunset, as the narrators reported, Miqdad was able to conquer and conquer Al-Mayassa.
Al Mayassa's fairy dowry
When Al-Mayassa's father learned that the one who beat his daughter was only his poor nephew, he refused to marry her to him, so how could he give her to Miqdad, and the gentlemen and nobles refused before him.
 
But Al-Mayassa insisted on marrying him, so her father asked for a dowry that Miqdad could not bring, so he surrendered and left his daughter. A slave, one hundred ounces of musk, fifty ounces of camphor, one hundred robes of brocade, a can of cotton cloth full of Egyptian cloth and honey of the Levant, a thousand ounces of red gold, a thousand ounces of white silver, eight sheer camels, and eight hundred ounces of Rumi banan.
The strange thing is that Miqdad agreed to come with this dowry, and asked his uncle for a deadline to return with the dowry of Al-Mayassa.
fractional ring
Al-Miqdad left Kinda's homes asking for the dowry of Al-Mayassa, and he met a convoy of three hundred red-haired she-camels, and a lot of goods from Egypt and the Levant, led by three horsemen.
Miqdad understood to attack them, but one of them shouted at him: Go back from the masters of the sanctuary and the residents of Mecca and Zamzam. Miqdad said, “Welcome and welcome. Which tribe are you from?” They said, “We are Banu Hashim.”
And when they learned his story, they told him: Your uncle has wronged you, and he did not ask for that in the dowry of his daughter, Al-Mayassa, except for your destruction, and he gave each one of them a hundred she-camels.
 
After that, Miqdad completed his journey heading to the lands of Kisra in Iraq, and killed many of the knights of Kisra, until Kisra met him and admired him and gave him the safety ring, whose clove was said to be equivalent to the abscess of Egypt, Iraq and the Levant for seven years, and he bestowed gifts on him.
Al-Miqdad returned to his people with more money than his uncle asked, and married Al-Mayassa, so their story became one of the most popular stories circulated by generations about love and chivalry.


 
Note: One of the characteristics of the Arab heritage is exaggeration and falsification of facts
The narrators said that Miqdad and Al-Mayassa obey us with 1-
spears until they broke (spears do not break unless they are made of wood).
The narrators said: And the swords clashed until they were 2-
furrowed (this did not happen in major wars that the swords were furrowed)
The narrators said: The people gathered around them and thought 3-
that the one who performs the miasa is the devil (as if the people came to watch the miasat match with the unknown, which is an illusion in his eyes)
The narrators said: After a battle that extended from noon until 4-
sunset (this saying went beyond exaggeration, so we did not hear a fight between great heroes that lasted from noon to sunset)
We do not believe that the father of Al-Mayassa requires a dowry 5-
that is incapable of this degree
The narrators said: And when they learned his story, they said to 6-
him: Your uncle has wronged you, and he did not ask for that in the dowry of his daughter Al-Mayassa except for your destruction, and each one of them gave him a hundred camels (it is not simple to give 200 camels from a caravan containing 300 camels. This saying is false and exaggerated, and it is not A sound mind accepts it.
The narrators said: After that, Miqdad completed his journey 7-
heading to the lands of Khosrau in Iraq, and killed many of the knights of Khosrau, until Khosrow met him and admired him and gave him the safety ring, which was said to have been equivalent to the abscess of Egypt, Iraq and the Levant for seven years, and he bestowed gifts on him (these are not Not only lies, but a myth, for whoever kills the knights of Khosrau will be doomed and death, and his justifications do not intercede for him.
Based on what I mentioned above, the Arab cultural circles should reconsider their false and falsified heritage and work to purify it of myths and lies that are not accepted by the sound mind.
