1 Rumi indicts the Sufi for his sexual proclivities: هست صوفی آنک شد صفوت طلب ؛ نه از لباس صوف و خیاطی و دب The Sufi is he who has become a seeker of the purest form, not of the Sufi’s clothes, needlework, or spreading the diseases of that cloth (a veiled reference to sodomy which is stated more explicitly in the next verse)—M 5: 363. Translation is my own.
