In Section 44 of the Hadiqat al-Haqiqah, Sanai uses the historical anecdote of Imam Ali (Haydar) wearing armor with no backplate to illustrate the concept of absolute courage and unwavering resolve. By omitting back armor, Ali demonstrates a total commitment to facing the enemy directly, viewing retreat as worse than death. Sanai contrasts this steadfastness (likened to a mountain) with cowardice and excessive self-preservation (likened to water shifting with every wind).
