What is meant by "what they may do with themselves"?

Imām Ibn al-Jawzī (d. 597/1201) summarized the scholars' opinions in his book "Zād al-Masīr" as follows:

1. It refers to adorning themselves and displaying a desire for marriage. [Al-Ḍaḥḥāk, Muqātil]
2. It refers to getting married. [Al-Zuhrī, al-Suddī]
