Farok’s description of Muad’Dib reveals that, although Muad’Dib exercises unified rule over much of the universe, he is actually very selective and private. He sends messages that he does not want everyone to read, he lives where he is inaccessible to the public, and he ignores most of his subjects. In this way, Muad’Dib’s unified rule requires that he keep most people in the dark.
