Couplet 173



اِبْنُ الْحَال     باشد در مثال                صوفی 
  For example, soofi is Son of Time

گرچہ ہر دو فارغانداز  ماہ وسال
Although, both are beyond months and years 



                  Condition (حال) and time both are having almost similar in meaning. There is a chance of ambiguity considering the meaning of time as we usually consider, when it says the soofi as ‘Ibn-ul-waqt’ابن الوقت and now in this couplet, the doubt has been removed. To say a soofi as ‘Ibn-ul-waqt’ ابن الوقتor ‘ibn-ul-haal’ ابن الحالis as an example or metamorphically, otherwise, both soofi and time are above the months and years i.e. period. This means that condition (حال) and time (وقت) do not have the same meaning as is used in describing periods but the meaning is technical in nature, in which there is no connection of the period and the conditions and descension are in the hearts.
