Farid (Fareed) Sabri was a Pakistani singer and a proponent of the Sufi Muslim
tradition. Son of Ghulam Farid Sabri of the Sabri Brothers, he emerged as one
of South Asia's most prominent qawwali singers, often reciting poems written by
his father and uncle. He was shot dead in Karachi in a targeted killing. Tens
of thousands of people attended Sabri's funeral in Karachi. The murder met with
condemnation from many public figures in Pakistan, and several protests were organised
against the killing.
