This concept explores the allegory of Luqman and the Angel of Death (Azrael) in Sanai's Hadiqat al-Haqiqah. In the tale, Azrael questions Luqman about his tiny, ruined house. Luqman responds that building a grand or sturdy house is futile when death constantly pursues him. The narrative illustrates the Sufi concepts of asceticism (zuhd), the transience of the physical world, and the importance of prioritizing spiritual preparation over material comfort.
