Both Sanai in the Hadiqat al-Haqiqah and Rumi in the Masnavi articulate the Sufi paradox that physical death is synonymous with spiritual birth. In Section 11 of the Hadiqat, Sanai explicitly states that the 'death of the body is the birth of the soul' (mordan-e jesm zadan-e jan-ast), portraying physical demise as a necessary transition for spiritual life to thrive. Similarly, in the Masnavi, Rumi uses Imam Ali's dialogue to assert 'in my death is my life,' comparing leaving the physical body to an embryo emerging from the womb into a broader reality. Both poets employ this paradox to reframe mortality as a joyful liberation and an awakening to eternal life rather than a cessation of existence.
