In this section of Jami's Haft Awrang, the story of Moses and the fleeing lamb serves as an allegory for divine compassion and the prerequisites of spiritual leadership. Moses, working as a shepherd, relentlessly pursues a runaway lamb. Upon finally catching it, rather than displaying anger, he shows immense tenderness, soothing the exhausted animal and weeping for its hardship. God observes this deep empathy and declares Moses worthy of prophethood. The narrative illustrates that true spiritual authority is rooted in unconditional mercy, patience, and gentle care for the vulnerable.
