Couplet 30


ہر  اجامہ  ز عشقے چاک  شد
The one whose apparel tore up owing to love



اوز حرص و عیب  کل  پاک شد
He becomes clear of greed and other bad habits


         In this couplet, the increase of spiritual relation and reduction of greediness of the world has been desired to mention and its achievement is very easy via the path of love. Through this process, a person is cleansed off the greed, all defects and bad habits.

Benefit – the cure of bad habits are two, one is individual i.e. specific and in this each and every person is being treated differently like as mentioned Ihya Uloom. This is known as pat of sulook and the other is complete i.e. common and is achieved by remembrance and practice or as directed by the perfect sheikh and develop the love of Allah in the heart. When this love blossoms, one’s ownself and ego starts  becoming weak and the bad habits, which are generated from this ego and self, will start reducing. This is known as path of attraction (جزب). The former tareeq is free of dangers but is a detailed and long one, whereas, the latter is dangerous but is short. Different sheikhs have different tastes, Maulana Rumi likes the latter one and hence he is describing this path.
