The poem Kaisi Ghairat by Khubaib-ur-Rehman is a powerful social commentary that challenges the distorted concept of honor (“ghairat”) prevalent in patriarchal societies. With passionate verses, the poet exposes the hypocrisy of those who commit brutal acts—such as the killing of innocent women—in the name of honor. He questions the morality of such actions and criticizes the silence and complicity of society, particularly men, who stand idle while injustice prevails.
The poet uses strong imagery—mentioning blood-soaked deserts, lifeless bodies, and misguided traditions—to highlight how deeply these crimes are rooted in ignorance and outdated customs. He condemns the killers who call themselves protectors of honor yet commit acts that are anything but honorable. The poem serves as a wake-up call to confront these injustices and rethink what true honor means in a just and humane society.
“Kaisi Ghairat” is not just a poem; it is a bold voice against honor-based violence and a plea for societal introspection.
