In Jami's 'Haft Awrang', the anecdote of Master Nizam al-Din Khamush's sudden infatuation with a beautiful youth serves as an allegory for the relationship between metaphorical love ('ishq-i majazi) and divine love ('ishq-i haqiqi). Despite the master's advanced spiritual station and deep gnosis, the overpowering effect of earthly beauty illustrates that physical beauty is a mirror reflecting divine perfection. The heart's attraction to the youth is not a spiritual regression, but rather the soul's involuntary and irresistible response to the reflection of the Absolute, demonstrating that worldly love can serve as a potent catalyst or bridge toward divine realization.
