Qawwal.com || Qawwali is Sufi Music of India + Pakistan - 0 views

  •  
    The origins of qawwali probably predate the birth of Muhammad. The earliest Islamic scholars discussed the spiritual effects of music, but it was only in the time of al-Gazali (1085-1111) that these principles were refined and codified. These principles were then expanded by the Chisti school of Sufism. It is this order that has been responsible for the propagation of Qawwali in India and Pakistan for the last few centuries.

    A Djembefola is considered as: worthless, good-for-nothing, ignorant, idiot, stupid, incapable, mokolankolo, waste of the society, frivolous personality, not trustworthy. Nobody wants to bring into the world a Djembefola. A Djembefola hasn't the right to speak when the discussion is about serious matters. It is an insult to be treated as a Djembefola. Hey! Who are you? You are nothing but a Djembefola.
