Unconditional Servitude and Divine Reliance in Attar's Mokhtar Nameh (Poem 88)

In Poem 88 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet explores the themes of unconditional servitude and complete reliance on God. The poem emphasizes that true devotion is independent of both the receipt of divine grace and the believer's personal righteousness. It establishes an absolute master-servant dynamic where God is recognized as the ultimate Lord and the 'opening of all bonds,' regardless of the individual's spiritual state or outcomes.
