... The
bracelets which ornament the ancles of other females play loosely around
the leg; but I see that the bracelets of Ramla move not, neither doth
her heart. I love the family of al-Awwam for the love I bear her,
and for her sake, I love her maternal uncles of the tribe of Kalb... (Ibn
Khallikan's Biographical Dictionary, v.1, 1843)
Ramla, the
name of two of Aly's daughters, and of the daughter of Moawia, and of the
wife of Othman. The word رمل, means "sand." There is
a species of divination in the East, called the science of sand, which may have led to its use as a proper name, but it is more probable
that it was taken from a place of that name. Ramlat is supposed by
Caussin de Perceval to be the ancient Rama. (Journal of the Royal Asiatic
Society of G.B. & Ire., v.13, 1881)
