http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mansube
Das Matt der Dilaram ist eine der bekanntesten Mansuben. Es stammt von Abu-Bakr as-Suli, findet sich in einer alten Stambuler Handschrift und wird vor 946 datiert. Dilaram war, der Rahmenerzählung nach, die Lieblingsfrau eines Sultans, der als leidenschaftlicher Schachspieler sogar um sie spielte. Als er mit den weißen Steinen spielend drauf und dran war, sie zu verlieren, rief sie aus: "Opfere deine Türme und rette dein Weib!"

http://www.mallthere.com/wiki/Abu-Bakr_Muhammad_ben_Yahya_as-Suli
Das "Matt der Dilaram", auch "Problem der Edelfrau" oder "Matt der Haremsdame" genannt, gilt als ein Kronjuwel der Problemkunst. Es wird dem 946 verstorbenen Abu-Bakr Muhammad ben Yahya as-Suli zugeschrieben, dessen "Buch des Schach" (Kitab ash-shatranj) eine Sammlung herausragender Mansuben enthielt, die zumindest fragmentarisch erhalten blieben.
Von dieser Mansube gibt es voneinander abweichende Darstellungen.

Der Legende nach stand der dem Schach verfallene, jedoch nur mäßig begabte Großwesir Murwardi, vor dem finanziellen Ruin. Als letzten Wetteinsatz (Schach war ein Wettspiel) bot er seine Lieblingsfrau Dilaram (Ruhebett des Herzens). Innerlich bereits aufgebend - er droht selbst auf b5 von einem Turm mattgesetzt zu werden - flüsterte sie ihm ins Ohr "Opfere deine Türme und rette dein Weib", womit er sie, bzw. sie sich, retten konnte.

AZW: Das sogenannte "Dilaram-Matt" entstammt dem alten, inzwischen verlorengegangenen as-Suli-Manuskript aus dem zehnten Jahrhundert.

Schon der Einleitungszug ist schwerer als sonst, weil er nicht ein sofort erkennbares Matt androht, sondern die Drohung über volle vier Züge erstreckt. Allerdings gibt es gegen ihn, wenn man ihn gefunden hat, nur eine einzige zureichende Verteidigung. Hat man diese entdeckt, beginnt die Schwierigkeit von neuem. Wie nun fortsetzen? Jetzt muß es auf wuchtigere Art geschehen. Aber vor dem Schlußzug kommt dann doch noch ein stiller Zug.
