The Qawwali Project - An Untold Story

Qawwali is increasingly becoming a de-centered art form and is no longer limited only as a part of the religious institutions and the Khanqahs. And yet, the Qawwals continue to owe their strict allegiance to the Khanqah or the Dargah. They respect the direct descendants of the Sufi Master or his chosen disciples, who become the custodians of the tradition, the Sajjada-Nashin as they are formally known at the Shrines. The kissing of the hand defines certain hierarchies among the age-old Islamic traditions that are still followed in the Khanqahs.
