Jawad Ahmad Calls Society’s Tolerance of Profanity ‘Dangerous’

Singer-turned-politician Jawad Ahmad raised concerns about society’s growing tolerance for vulgarity and profanity.

He recalled his upbringing, saying, “In the household I grew up in, using curse words was unthinkable—whether on my mother’s side or my father’s.” Jawad explained that both of his parents, being educators, taught him respect, and he never heard foul language in his family.

Defining profanity, the Hamain Tum Se Pyar Hai singer said it includes using hateful or false labels to insult someone, such as calling them something they are clearly not—like comparing them to an animal.

He added that curse words also include vulgar references to body parts, misogynistic insults directed at mothers or sisters, or hateful remarks about someone’s caste, appearance, or profession. “Such language isn’t just rude—it targets a person’s character in a senseless way,” Jawad emphasized.
