1 Urdu couplets and shers with munaafiq

munaafiq(m): hypocrite

Description of munaafiq: 'Munaafiq' is an Urdu word denoting a hypocrite, someone who outwardly professes faith while concealing disbelief or treachery within. Unlike a kaafir, who openly rejects Islam, a munaafiq feigns loyalty to undermine believers from inside. Differs from a true believer, who embodies sincerity in words and deeds without deceit. In Urdu poetry, it evokes characters masking insincerity amid communal trust.
