From those (women) who have become with child, while having tightenedโ
โthe ends of their waistbelts; he has grown up to be not disdained.
In Jahiliyyah, they believed that if the woman conceives against her will, then the child will grow up to be a warrior.

He stays awake much, even as the lazy one slumbers through the night
