And the Muslim geographer and historian Abu al-Fida (1273 – 1331 AD) relates that Prophet Muhammad suffered from a death erection (a post-mortem erection, technically a priapism).

Dahlia attacked their army, completely defeating it and pushing them back to Egypt. She even reclaimed the ruins of Carthage. At that point, she was the unquestioned heroine and leader of all of Africa’s population – both nomads, Berbers and Romans. All the ethnic and religious groups united under her banner. A Muslim deserter even became her lieutenant and adopted son. This was the time when she gained her famous Arabic nickname. (read more)
