"The most beautiful thing about a dove is its collar." Based on this phrase, the Andalusian jurist and poet Ibn Hazm formulates his vision of the most ambiguous and complex human emotion, "love," and gives it forty names in "The Dove's Collar," and each name has a characteristic embodied by a state different from the others. Passion is It has a presence that differs from love, and passion strikes the heart of the lover, and its effect is not atmospheric. Ibn Hazm goes beyond the vocabulary that indicates love, and behind the tales of love for the rulers and princes of his time. He conveys to us stories of love and its intensity, and reveals what feelings of love do to the hearts of lovers. It suffices for him to begin his book by saying: "Love - may God bless you - has its beginning as a joke and its end as seriousness. Its meanings are too precise for their majesty to be described, and their truth cannot be realized except through suffering. It is neither objectionable in religion nor forbidden in Sharia law, since hearts are in the hands of God Almighty."
