Sufi opera star Saira Peter recorded Maulana Rumi’s Qawwali in Konya. He himself composed the Sufi Kalam of Maulana Rumi and this fusion of Qawwali was recorded in front of Maulana Rumi’s Mazar Mubarak.
Saira Peter, a British singer of Pakistani origin, says that Jalaluddin Rumi moved to Konya with his respected father at the age of 19 after completing his elementary studies.
Maulana Rumi’s speech is on the one hand a treasure of wisdom and high thoughts, on the other hand it is full of the virtues of poetry. There is also simplicity in his speech, there is warmth and passion, there is also love and an expression of unity.
Although the main theme of his poetry was spirituality and true love or divine love. But at the same time, he also emphasized on the topics of religious tolerance, beliefs, morals, generosity, goodness and training. Apart from this, he also taught about the importance and reality of love.
His teachings show that all external and internal knowledge exists within the human being. This is the reason why Sufis urge man to explore his inner self. Maulana Rumi’s poems attract man towards his origin, that is, his inner self. Keeping all these things in front, he made a fusion of Qawwali.
He says that the cultural department of Konya supported the shooting of this video.
