Abstract

In Ghalib's poetry, death is not just the end of life, but an important way to understand human existence, life and death, mortality and immortality, love, sorrow, and the human relationship with God. According to Ghalib, despite being an absolute certainty, death is not merely annihilation; rather, it is an important stage in understanding human consciousness, self-awareness, and the meaning of existence. For him, death is not only the completion of life but also a guarantee of life's meaning. Ghalib's concept of death encompasses religious, mystical, philosophical, and historical dimensions.
