Abstract

This study explores the presence and influence of Sufism in the Arabic poetry of Khawaja Ubaidullah Multani, highlighting its spiritual, ethical, and aesthetic dimensions. The research examines how the poet’s works reflect Sufi principles such as love, tolerance, humility, and self-discipline, and how these values can contribute to the moral development of contemporary society. By analysing selected poems, the study demonstrates the relevance of classical Sufi poetry in addressing modern ethical challenges and fostering a culture of virtue. The findings underscore the enduring role of Khawaja Ubaidullah Multani’s poetry in promoting ethical consciousness and spiritual awareness in the present era.
