Does anyone have any more info regarding this?

Before the time of Prophet Mohammed, women could freely choose their husbands, even have several husbands if they wished.

Would surely be a great nail in the coffin against anyone claiming Moe was some sort of feminist.

At evening, casual flocks of pigeons make
Ambiguous undulations as they sink,
Downward to darkness, on extended wings. - Stevens
