240:"And again, while Al-Rumaikiyya was in her room, which was next to the river, she saw a barefoot woman who collected mud to make bricks. And when she saw this the queen began to mourn. The king asked her why she was crying, and she said she could never do what she wanted, unlike that humble woman. The king, to please her, sent for rosewater to fill a large lake in Córdoba; then ordered that the land taken out of the lake should be filled with sugar, cinnamon, lavender, clove, musk, amber and civet, and a number of spices that smell good. When the lake was full of all these things and the mud was as you can imagine, the king told his wife to take off her shoes and step out, and then she could make mud bricks all she wanted.
237:"It happened that one day, in Córdoba in the month of February, snow fell and when Al-Rumaikiyya saw snow, she began to mourn. The king asked why she was crying, and she told him she was crying because he never let her go to the places where it snowed. The king, to please her, because Córdoba is a city of warm temperature and there is rarely snow, planted almond trees sent from the mountains above Córdoba so that when they bloomed in February, they appeared to be covered with snow and the queen saw her desire fulfilled.
243:"Again, she was craving something else, and she began to mourn. The king asked why she was crying, and she replied that she would not mourn if he ever did anything to please her. The good king, seeing that she did not appreciate all that he had done for her, not knowing what else he could do, he said these words in Arabic: "Not even the day you played with mud?" for her to understand that by the mud she should always remember that he had tried his best to satisfy her.

225:"Patronio, look what happens with a man: he often asks me to help and succor him some money; but every time I do so, he gives me tokens of appreciation, but if he is not happy with the money I give, he is unhappy and seems to have forgotten the favors I've done to him earlier. As I know your judgment, please let me your advice on how to behave with that man."
246:"And so, my lord, if that man forgets, and does not thank you for all you've done for him, simply because you have not done as he would like, I advise you not to do anything to harm him. And I also advise that if someone did a favor for you, but then does not do everything you want, do not forget the good that person has done to you."

It is evident that the queen was not occupied solely in indulging her caprices and writing poems. An inscription kept in the Museum of
Seville shows that it was she who caused the tower to be built at the mosque that once occupied the present site of the Church of San Juan de la Palma; indeed the

Despite her lowly background, Al-Rumaikiyya carried out her duties as consort wonderfully well, even in a court so magnificent as that of
Seville. It may also be said that she loved her husband dearly, matching Al-Mu'tamid’s love for her. When her husband succeeded to the throne, he complied with

every whim of his wife, to the extent that his subjects could not stop themselves expressing their dissatisfaction. This mutual passion between husband and wife led each to compose inspired and deeply felt poetry for the other, although only one poem of Al-Rumaikiyya’s remains to us.

Seville named Jachach, who employed her in driving beasts of burden. One day, the future king met her in the street and was so impressed by her abilities and beauty that he at once removed her and made her his wife. This was greatly displeasing to the prince’s father, Emir
234:"My lord, the king Al-Motamid was married to Al-Rumaikiyya, and loved her more than anyone in the world. She was very good and the Saracens still remembered her for her words and deeds, which are exemplary. But sometimes, she was a whimsical and capricious woman.
