Pakistan is still mourning over the loss of their beloved Sufi Qawali singer
Amjad Sabri, who died in a brutal and cold blooded murder just few kilometers away from his home in Laiquatabad, Karachi on June 22.
This peaceful and spiritual singer was spearing love, peace, tolerance and harmony through his Qawalis, a style of Muslim devotional music from sub-continent, shot six times while being targeted in his car with out any mercy.
The Sufi culture in Pakistan is one of the richest and most beautiful in the world. Target killers may have silenced him forever but soulful Qawalis sung by him will always remain in our hearts. No one can replace him.
His fans are paying tribute to him in their own ways.
Well known local artist, painter, illustrator and muralist S.M. Raza and philanthropist Aqib Faiz pay a humble homage to Sabri by painting his mural on a wall of Korongi No. 5.
In other words it is these young peep’s courageous response to the extremist violence and terrorism.
It was Aqib’s idea, as he is already involved in the Wall of Kindness project in Korangi, Karachi. He approached Raza, who is famous for his art work and Mural, who took just three hours to complete this beautiful piece of art in the extreme heat of Karachi.
Raza painted the one of the photographs of Sabri, where he is performing in Trafo, Budapest.
They will continue painting heroes on the walls of Karachi. Their next project is Abdul Satar Edhi.
