ABSTRACT:

Sufism is a term used to describe Islam's mystical tradition. Scholars generally agreed that Sufism and Islam were inseparable. Sufism has evolved into a global movement with adherents from every corner of the globe. Many people have been influenced by the teachings of the Sufi saints, who have shown them the route to God, away from the pleasures of this world. Sufi poetry and music from Punjab has made a significant contribution to the spiritual upliftment of people all over the world. The words of the Sufi saints play an important part in Sufi poetry because Music speaks that words can't, but this is especially true when it comes to Sufi poetry. The manner in which these phrases are said may vary. Some will be presented in Qawwali style, while others will be presented in Kafi style some will have a traditional aesthetic, while others will have a more western one. The core of Sufism should not be lost, no matter how these holy teachings are presented, regardless of the medium. God has bestowed man with the invaluable gift of music.
