Echoes of Sufi Chants - Doha Baba Farid - Shafqat Ali Khan

Hazrat Baba Fariduddin Masood Ganjshakar Persian: حضرت بابا فرید الدّین مسعود گنج شکر, Punjabi: ਫ਼ਰੀਦ-ਉਦ-ਦੀਨ ਗੰਜਸ਼ਕਰ) (1173-1266)or (1188 (584 Hijri) - May 7, 1280 (679 T-lijri)) , commonly known as Baba Farid (Punjabi: بابا فرید, ਬਾਬਾ ਫ਼ਰੀਦ) was a 12th century Sufi preacher and saint of Chishti Order of South Asia.

He is recognised as the first major poet of the Punjabi language and is considered one of the holiest and pivotal saints of the Punjab region. He is revered by Muslims, Sikhs and Hindus and is considered as one of the fifteen Sikh Bhagats within Sikhism. His works form part of the Guru Granth Sahib, the Sikh sacred scripture.

'Faridia Islamic University', at Sahiwal, Pakistan is named after him [5], and in July 1998, the Punjab Government in India, established the Baba Farid University of Health Sciences at Faridkot, the city which itself was named after him.

Shafqat Ali Khan is the son of Pakistani classical maestro singer Ustad Salamat Ali Khan. Shafqat is a celebrated singer of classical, ghazal and crossover fusion.

Sikhs revere these holy men more than the Muslims of the the preent times. It is difficult to pigeon-hole great sufis such as Baba Ganj Shakar in to definite religious domains as they were humble humanist of their time who loved all people irrespective of religion. Their love for humanity transcended all barriers of different sorts.
