Apne Shaheed-e-naaz Se Bas Haath Utha Ki Phir — Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
He said to his beloved, the martyr of grace, simply by raising his hand that he would not be brought into the court of reckoning.
Explanation
This profound couplet explores the intoxicating power of divine love. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that the mere act of addressing or acknowledging the beloved—the 'Shahid-e-Naaz'—is so powerful that it grants immunity from the ultimate judgment. The 'Diwan-e-Hashr' represents the Day of Judgment, where every soul is accounted for. Mir Taqi Mir elevates the beloved to a status that transcends even cosmic law, making love itself a form of divine protection.
