In Farid al-Din Attar's Mosibat Nameh, the allegory of Dhul-Nun and the carpet of divine glory illustrates the concepts of boundless divine mercy and the value of human spiritual humility. The narrative contrasts the immensity of human sin with the infinite scale of divine glory, comparing all accumulated sins to a few defiled drops lost in an ocean or darkness instantly erased by the sun. Crucially, the poem states that in the divine court, sincere acknowledgment of human weakness and helplessness (ajz) is valued alongside, or even preferred to, self-righteous obedience.
