In Section 1 of the third garden (rowze) of Jami's Baharestan, the poet argues that the wisdom underlying the very existence of kings lies in the manifestation of justice ('adl) and equity (nesfat), not in displays of grandeur and majesty ('azamat and jalalat). Jami cites Nushirvan (Khosrow I) who, though a stranger to the true faith, was unrivaled in justice and truthfulness, so much so that the Prophet is reported to have taken pride in being born during the reign of the just king. The passage closes with a counselor's warning to a tyrannical ruler: reflect on the darkness of oppression and make justice your practice as a test, and if justice yields no glory, only then return to the path of tyranny. The section thus evaluates legitimate rule by its ethical fruit for the governed rather than by outward pomp.
