The Necessity of Completeness in Spiritual States in Attar's Mokhtar Nameh (Chapter 20, Poem 21)
In Poem 21 of Chapter 20 of Mokhtar Nameh, Attar highlights the importance of wholeheartedness and completeness in whatever state one occupies. He critiques spiritual vacillation, observing that the subject is complete neither in faith (ایمان) nor in disbelief (کفر). The poem suggests that whether one is among the elite or the common, ripe or raw, the crucial requirement is to be complete and fully committed to one's state rather than remaining half-hearted.
