#berklee #berkleecollegeofmusic A.R. Rahman's “Kun Faya Kun” performed live by The Berklee Indian Ensemble at Symphony Hall, Boston. Sufism, the mystical sect of Islam, is partly characterized by its rich musical tradition, primarily based on the writings of Sufi poets such as Rumi, Amir Khusrau, and Bulleh Shah. Well known for drawing influence from his faith and the Sufi tradition, A.R. Rahman, rearranged this beautiful Qawwali by the Sufi-saint Hazrat Nizamuddin Auliya for the 2011 film, "Rockstar," with additional lyrics penned by Irshad Kamil.

Kun Fayakun comes from arabic words "Kun(كن)" which means "to be" or "to exist" and "fayakun (فيكون)" which means "it is" .So its literal meaning is "Be ,and it is". "Kun Fayakun" actually is a Quranic verse referred five times in Quran.It .It is referred to symbolise God's creative power.It This term is about God's will and absolute control over every creation. In Surah Baqrah(2:117) this phrase appears as : "The Originator of the heavens and the earth. When He decrees a matter, He only says to it: “Be! ـ and it is." Credit: Imroz Qamar, Observer (Quora)

Kun Fayakun refers to Almighty’s supreme and eternal power that if He wills something to happen, it happens. The use of the word “Kun” symbolises how easy it is for Allah to make things happen as this word consists of only two letters in Arabic which is easy to vocalise so Allah is telling us that it is easy for Him to impose his will as it is easy for us humans to pronounce the word “kun”

As an Indian and a proud Hindu, I'm filled with pride knowing that such profound expressions of love and spirituality come from our rich cultural tapestry. Let's continue to cherish and celebrate the beauty of all religions, for they are the threads that weave together the fabric of our humanity ! Indeed, India's rich tapestry of tolerance and diversity sets a remarkable example for the world !!
