Sufi Chant Events This Week in Naxos

About Sufi Chant

Sufi Chant, or Dhikr, is a spiritual practice originating within Islamic mysticism (Sufism), focusing on the repetitive invocation of divine names and phrases. Traditionally, it utilizes a combination of solo or choral vocals accompanied by minimal organic instrumentation such as the ney flute or the daf frame drum. The rhythmic structure is often cyclical and steady, designed to induce a trance-like state or spiritual ecstasy through gradual intensification of tempo and volume. As a foundational form of sacred music, it is semantically related to Qawwali and Mevlevi music but remains distinct in its liturgical focus on meditative repetition rather than purely aesthetic melodic complexity.

Also known as: Dhikr, Zikr
