@ilahi.sufi.qawwal: Unke Andaz‑e‑Karam is a beautiful Qawwali naat that honours the mercy, kindness and divine grace of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. This short excerpt from our practice sessions at Sama School of Music captures a powerful moment where the women of Ilahi Sufi Qawwali explore the mood of the piece with deep focus. As the first female qawwali ensemble, Ilahi is still early in its journey; our emphasis remains on daily riyaaz and faithfully learning the tradition rather than performing publicly. This clip features a burst of gamak taan – an improvisational technique where each note within the raag is given extra force. Such virtuosity taans, inherited from Hindustani classical music, add intensity and colour to the qawwali’s devotional expression. Watch the full rehearsal by searching “Unke Andāz‑e‑Karam (Live Rehearsal) | Ilahi Sufi Qawwali at Sama School of Music” on YouTube. @Tahir Qawwal #nusratfatehalikhan #peermehralishah✨✨ #sufimusic #raag
