In Poem 67 of the Mokhtar Nameh, Attar of Nishapur highlights the necessity of absolute submission and faithfulness to the Divine. The poem instructs the seeker to embrace spiritual trials and tribulations (bala), asserting that any heart or soul that lacks this burning desire and loyalty is worthless. Attar establishes a strict dichotomy of devotion, declaring that any aspect of existence not dedicated entirely to the Divine is equivalent to spiritual infidelity (kufr). This concept underscores the Sufi ideal of pure, uncompromising love where suffering in the path of the Beloved is welcomed and total exclusivity of focus is demanded.
