Divine Grace and Unconditional Generosity in Attar's Mokhtar Nameh (Poem 95)
In Poem 95 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the speaker contrasts human flaws with divine benevolence. Despite the speaker's continuous misdeeds or 'evil', the Divine responds not with punishment, but with unconditional generosity, providing 'the robe of grace' and the 'crown of protection'. This reflects a profound Sufi theme where divine mercy infinitely exceeds human fallibility.
