In Chapter 34, Poem 6 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the concept of Fana (annihilation of the self) is portrayed as a profound prerequisite for divine acceptance and union. The Divine Beloved visits and instructs the seeker to surrender completely and endure spiritual suffering ('sit in the dust, and drowned in blood'). It is only after the lover is systematically stripped of their ego and selfhood—until 'nothing remained of me' (چون هیچ شدم)—that they are finally deemed worthy of belonging to the Divine ('Now, be Ours!'). This reflects the central Sufi doctrine that the presence of the individual ego is the ultimate barrier to God, and only through its absolute dissolution can one attain true spiritual fulfillment.
