In Chapter 41, Poem 31 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet explores the Sufi concept of divine sorrow (اندوه) as the ultimate and entirely sufficient companion. In the pursuit of divine love, the seeker embraces the pain and sorrow associated with the Beloved to such an extent that it becomes their sole recourse. The poem emphasizes that even in absolute solitude—where one might ordinarily desire the presence of many companions—possessing the sorrow of the Beloved fulfills all spiritual and emotional needs, rendering worldly companionship unnecessary.
