What does “panchatting” mean?
“Panchatting” comes from the Gujarati word “panchat” which means to gossip or honestly, to yap! Though “panchatting” isn’t really a word, as someone whose Urdu and Gujarati speaking skills are extremely limited, I just love to innovate. Though I won’t be doing much gossiping here, except about my own life, the word encompasses my entire being as someone who simply loves to talk.
About '“Panchatting. by Hajar”
Welcome to the inner workings of my mind. I’m a published writer who has consistently addressed the importance of female Muslim voices and has made it a mission to say the things the rest of our community are too scared to address.
I write from my heart and from deep within my soul. I write in hopes that my vulnerability may resonate, inspire, and bring you a sense of connection. My pieces come from my identity as a Muslim girl, a South Asian daughter, a poet, a chronic contemplator, and a journalist. From pieces about religion, philosophy, and culture to sharing what I’ve loved recently — I’m sharing it all.
Enjoy my various pieces of work, as a girl who deeply reflects, contemplates, and shares it all with you.
