In Poem 76 of Chapter 35 of the Mokhtar Nameh, Attar utilizes the contrasting imagery of the 'belt of covenant and fidelity' versus the 'zunnar' (a cord or belt historically worn by non-Muslims, which in Sufi poetry symbolizes spiritual 'infidelity' or abandoning superficial religious norms). The speaker expresses a desire to abandon traditional vows in favor of binding themselves to the beloved's 'doubled tresses'. The quatrain further explores the paradox of this devotion, questioning why the heart should remain bound to the tresses when the beloved's lips offer no resolution to the lover's plight.
