sherKuch Alfaaz

iman mujhe roke hai jo khinche hai mujhe kufr kaba mere pichhe hai kalisa mere aage faith restrains me while i am tugged at by heresy behind me stands the mosque, the church in front of me ghalib describes a profound spiritual crisis where he is torn between religious duty and the seduction of the forbidden. standing between the kaaba (symbolizing established tradition) and the church (symbolizing the exotic or iconoclastic object of desire), he feels the tension of leaving his faith behind while being irresistibly drawn toward a new, perhaps sacrilegious, path.
