Admired attachment
In this context, the author means "attachment ..to the principle.."
As for المحمود, it's a bit trickier since it deals with the extent/degree of acceptabilitiy. The term's meaning in this sentence is something more than "accepted" but less than "encouraged." I believe the best match here would be " admired " ----> "admired attachment..."
