In Section 6 of Attar's Mosibat Nameh, an allegory featuring the poet Sanai contrasts a scavenger and a muezzin to illustrate the value of sincere effort over hypocritical devotion. Sanai observes both men working for their livelihood, but concludes that the scavenger, whose work is honest and straightforward, is spiritually superior to the muezzin, whose religious acts are tainted by ostentation and hypocrisy. The tale emphasizes that true spiritual purity requires eliminating hypocrisy and ego from one's actions.
