1 Urdu couplets and shers with wajuud

wajuud(m): existence

Description of wajuud: The Urdu word wajuud means existence, presence, or being. It derives from Arabic roots and carries philosophical weight in South Asian literature and thought. Unlike concrete nouns describing physical objects, wajuud addresses the abstract concept of existence itself. Differs from similar terms like "hasti" by emphasizing ontological presence rather than mere physical presence. In poetry and classical Urdu literature, wajuud often explores themes of identity, consciousness, and one's place within
