I knew you could touch only easy part
(Bhatth Namazan Chakkarr Rozay)
However, point still stands, why talk against Roza and Namaz, why not tell people what you believe is “right”?
IMO, you cannot impress people by talking against what they believe and practice. This way you will make them rigid.

I touched the concluding part. A poet writes a single poem in one state of mind. The subsequent lines after this ‘Bhatth Namazan’ shows that Bulleh Shah was not preaching absolute condemnation of Roza, Namaz.

Can we have historical references that Bulleh Shah himself abandon Namaz Roza in life? The source you provided in one of your posts ( referring anger of Shah Inayat due to blasphemous poetry) say that Bulleh Shah stayed at Shah Inayat’s dargah / khanqah for decades after Shah Inayat’s death teaching people his views. Preaching at the place of Shah Inayat and not offering Roza Namaz would have created non-acceptance of Bulleh Shah among masses.
