  extraction: high
  motif_candidates: medium
  comparison_claims: uncertain
  notes: Literal extraction is strong because the passage is explicit. Motif assignment
    is moderate where Sufi or symbolic readings are possible but not resolved. No
    comparison claims were added because the passage itself does not establish a specific
    external comparison.
