Haq-parasti Ka Agar Daava Hai — Wali Dakhani

हक़-परस्ती का अगर दावा है बे-गुनाहाँ कूँ सताया न करो
— Wali Dakhani

Meaning

If you claim to be devoted to truth and righteousness, then do not torment or oppress innocent people.

Explanation

This couplet cuts right through the hypocrisy of those who wear their righteousness and faith like a badge of honor. The poet gently reminds us that a genuine devotion to truth can never justify cruelty or persecution of the innocent. True spirituality is not measured by grand claims, but by how compassionately we treat harmless and vulnerable souls.
