In Chapter 32, Poem 44 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the theme of total annihilation (fana) is depicted through the metaphor of divine love displacing the seeker's heart. The quatrain explains that the presence of the Beloved cannot coexist with the lover's selfhood. When the Divine sits beside the heart, the heart is entirely removed from the midst, signifying that true mystical realization requires the absolute negation of the servant's individual existence to make way solely for the Divine.
