In Fariduddin Attar's Mosibat Nameh, the allegory of the madman who attempts to steal a deceased person's linen shroud (karbas) serves as a critique of worldly attachment and spiritual blindness. When rebuked for his actions, the madman argues that those obsessed with material pursuits are already spiritually dead, wearing shrouds day and night. Through this dialogue, Attar emphasizes the necessity of abandoning the carrion of this world (dunya-ye mordar) to uncover the inner secrets of faith, illustrating that true spiritual elevation requires detaching oneself from material desires.
