1 Urdu couplets and shers with khuda-parast

khuda-parast(m): believerinGod

Description of khuda-parast: Khuda-parast is an Urdu adjective meaning a devout worshiper of God, pious, or godly, describing someone who reveres and worships Allah with devotion. Unlike khud-parast, which denotes a selfish or narcissistic person, it emphasizes spiritual piety over self-interest. Differs from mere ritualism by implying sincere, heartfelt faith akin to an aabid or zaahid. In poetry, Ghalib contrasts it with idol-worship: "gar t? ?hud?-parast hai maiñ but-parast huuñ."
