In Section 42 of Sanai's Hadiqat al-Haqiqah, the poet utilizes a coarse but vivid folk story to illustrate the relationship between worldly pleasure and spiritual consequence. The narrative describes a woman seeking a spiritual charm or remedy from a village ascetic to ease her childbirth labor, only to be mockingly rebuked by a mukhannath (an effeminate man) who reminds her that the hardship of childbirth is the inevitable consequence of enjoying the sweetness of physical pleasure.

Sanai employs this allegory to deliver a moral lesson on the deceptive nature of the material world. He argues that human beings foolishly pursue the immediate, fleeting pleasures of the world while remaining oblivious to, or complaining about, the severe spiritual hardships and reckoning in the Hereafter that naturally follow such indulgence. The allegory emphasizes that every worldly pleasure carries an inseparable, heavy spiritual cost.
