conversations.value: The Wedding of Zein: The story opens with the village hearing the news of Zein's upcoming nuptials.\nBecause Zein is regarded as the village idiot, the people as a whole are greatly surprised that any family agreed to give their daughter to him.\nThe rest of the story unfolds non-linearly.\nThe first section is an account of Zein's childhood and young adulthood, focusing on his strange ability to draw attention to village girls by falling in love with them.\nAfter he sings their praises, other people notice the girls, resulting in their advantageous marriages.\nBecause of this, the other villagers invite him over in hope of his falling in love with their daughters.\nZein is also distinguished by his friendship with Haneen, a Sufi holy man who did not associate closely with anyone else in the village.\nHe is also close to many of the socially shunned, such as Mousa the Lame, a disabled former slave.\nThe turning point of the story is an encounter between Zein and Seif ad-Din, a local man of bad character.\nSeif ad-Din attacks Zein while he is standing talking to Mahjoub's gang, a group of local men who run the village.\nZein retaliates with unexpected strength, but before he can actually kill Seif ad-Din, he is stopped by Haneen, who blesses both men and the village as a whole.\nIn the following year, which is referred to as Haneen's year, the village experiences multiple miracles, which they attribute to Haneen's blessing.\nThe story climaxes with one of these miracles, the wedding of the fool Zein to the most handsome, intelligent, religious girl in the village, Ni'ma.
