The question of talking about the imbibing of Sufi wisdom (often considered heretical and thus, like alcohol, forbidden by orthodox Muslims) using the metaphor of drinking alcohol and vice-versa is kept fluid, and is part of the paradigm-subverting nature of Sufi poetry-and its beauty. Of course, one underlying thing you have to keep in mind, is that the whole symbology of "drinkers"/"imbibers" ( sharaabee, mai-kash, or badha-khaar) has multiple meanings. And when one is talking of streams and liquids to be imbibed, the person at the "source" of it is identified using the symbology of one of the things Islamic tradition says will happen in paradise: those "with Mohammad" will have access to the "Waters" of Kausar. So one implication is something of the nature of "let's go to imbibe of this fount of wisdom (gnosis, ma'arifath, irfan.) directly from the source. Here's a rough start as my limited intellect allows:įor Sufis, the stream of Sufi wisdom and knowledge (metaphysical "knowing", rather than written words, of course) is traced back to Muhammad through one of two people he is said to have initiated in that field: Abu Bakar and Ali. Well, the references are more implied and metaphysical than some thing I could list as bullets. iFaqeer (Talk to me!) 04:39, (UTC)Ībout the additional significance. the second line was wrong in the transliteration. So there's no specific symbolic significance attached to Kausar, or to Muhammad offering the waters of Kausar to drink? Kausar just loosely represents the abundance to be found in paradise? Sarabseth 21:12, (UTC) I'll have to go back and listen to the Nusrat qawwalis which convinced me that the Kausar references were to Ali.

Ali is in Najaf-thus the reference you hear in qawwalis to Shah-e-Najaf Hope this helps. As in the qawwali sung by the Sabri Brothers: MaikashoN aa'o, aa'o, Madinay chalo Dasth-e-saqi-e-kausar say peenay chalo Or: Oh Drinkers, come, come let us go to Medina From the hand of host of the Kausar, let's go to drink Muhammad is buried in Medina. Saqi-e-Kausar is not a reference to Ali, but to the The Prophet himself. Kausar/ Kawsar is the name of a river in paradise ( jannath, firdaus, etc.) that is mentioned in the Qur'an.

The Kausar reference is from Islamic canon. Ali is referred to as "Saqi-e-Kausar", and there are references to how he will greet entrants into Paradise and offer them the waters of Kausar to drink. I know it is the name of a fountain in Paradise, but there is clearly some significance over and above that. I wonder if anyone can explain to me the significance of "Kausar". Previous Revision History (under Qawaali) For history, here's the history of Qawaali: - iFaqeer (Talk to me!) 20:11, (UTC) So please check before moving it back to one of those. The only thing closer to the actual word in Urdu/Persian would be "Qawwaali" or "Qawwaalee". Quite a few of us, lifelong fans of Qawwali and people who speak Urdu and can read Persian, think this is spelling is preferable to "Qawali" or "Qawaali" or "Qawalee".
