List of Best Sufi Singers in the World

Best Sufi Singer in the World | List of Top Sufi Artist and Ranking

Sufi music is the generic term for regionally different styles of Islamic music that belongs to the ritualistic practice of Sufism followers.*[*p]**[p]*In many orders (Tarīqa) dervishes the practice of music is common, which often consists only of songs, in other Tariqas but also instrumental accompanied. The music is a part of the dhikr (remembrance of God), because in the songs either the names of God are recited, or the love of God or the Prophet Muhammad is sung. Partly later the lyrical works of well-known Sufi poets (for example Rumi or Yunus Emre) were taken as lyrics.*[*p]**[p]*There are also different ways of instrumentally accompanying Sufi music, if any, in the different traditions. Often the instruments used are frame drums (Bendir or Daf) and the pipe-flute Nay, but also the stringed instruments Tanbur, Ghichak and Rabāb. The sound of the Nay is usually described as wailing or yearning, which is why it is generally considered the instrument of the Sufis. Like the pipe from his home the reed was cut, its sound symbolizes the yearning of the soul of the spiritually seeking human being, separated from the uniqueness, for their original home.*[*p]**[p]*In Pakistan and northern India, the Qawwali has found a large hearing audience. This genre was mostly with the poem of the Ghazal by the Pakistani musician Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan known in the West.*[*p]**[p]*In the Pakistani province of Sindh worshipers of the Sufi poet Shah Abdul Latif maintain their own singing tradition in which they accompany themselves with the long-necked lute Tanburo. Some Pakistani dervishes use ecstatic circular dances to create a rhythm with the Chimta iron tong, up to one meter long, or use it to accompany religious songs.
