Wujood: What Does It Mean to Be? | Urdunama

What does it mean to exist? Is wujood simply about being or does it also include the presence, influence and meaning that come with being?
In this episode of Urdunama, Fabeha Syed explores wujood (وجود) through poetry, unpacking the many ways poets have thought about existence. Sometines as presence, as rootedness, as freedom, and as the forces that shape the way we inhabit the world.
From Iqbal’s striking conversation between a tree and a desert bird to his idea of rising beyond the jazb-e-khaak, or the pull of the wordly desires, the episode looks at what it means to be here and what makes that presence matter.
