As the very foundation of spiritualism differs from religion to religion, particularly from Islamic spiritualism known as Sufism while spiritualism in other religions is called mysticism. Monasticism is one of the movements dated in pre-historic era, encouraged in all religions except Islam. Yet it had been inducted in Islam too. Literature, particularly poetry is the most powerful tool to incite masses or to propagate definite thoughts in a society. By the way, some poets gain universal fame. Similarly, Rahman Baba is such a poet who is accepted and respected throughout Pashtunkhwa. For the reason his poetry is immensely adored specifically in Pashtun community while in neighboring countries generally. The main theme of his poetry is Ishq, the very basic principle of Sufism but in a universal form which is equally accepted to each Pashtun scholar as well as a layman. Anyhow, some writers are of the view that many of his couplets encourage detachment of worldly life. In this connection, the writers of this paper strive to unpack assumption of the poet regarding worldly life and to unveil whether his poetry certainly proliferate monasticism or not?
