After his father's death, The Sabri Brothers were led by Amjad's uncle Maqbool Ahmed Sabri, Amjad took up the role of a supporting vocalist and also used to play the Bongos. Later, in 1996, he started his own group with his brothers and friends as members.

Personal life

Amjad Sabri is fondly remembered by friends and family as a warm and affable person who was always smiling, and had a love for board games and a childish tendency to play pranks. He married his wife Nadia after being introduced to her in 2002 through mutual friends. Nadia and Sabri have five children together. Sabri was known to be a family man who preferred to spend time with his wife and children despite his hectic career and travelling commitments and felt homesick when travelling abroad. Friends who knew him closely also considered him somewhat of an eccentric and an outspoken misfit. Sabri preferred to live in his humble Liaqatabad residence even after achieving world fame and refused to move to a more affluent area due to his spiritual association with the home built by his father.

Death

On 22 June 2016, after finishing a morning TV show where his last naat included the words "When I shudder in my dark tomb, dear Prophet, look after me", two motorcyclists opened fire on Sabri's car in Liaquatabad Town, Karachi, critically injuring Sabri, an associate and his driver. Sabri was shot twice in the head and once on the ear. All of the car passengers were then shifted to Abbasi Shaheed Hospital where Sabri died. His assassination occurred near an underpass named after his father.

Tens of thousands of people attended Amjad Sabri's funeral in Karachi. He was buried near the graves of his father Ghulam Farid Sabri and uncle Maqbool Ahmed Sabri at Paposh Qabristan, in Nazimabad.

Sabri's murder was met with condemnation from many public figures in Pakistan and India, and several protests were organised against the killing.

Perpetrators

According to local Pakistani media like Dawn News, Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) claimed responsibility for killing Amjad Sabri. The responsibility was claimed by the group's spokesman, Qari Saifullah Mehsud. Qari Saifullah Mehsud was later shot dead by an unknown gunman in Khost province of Afghanistan on 29 December 2019. Mehsud was a key TTP commander and was among the terrorists most wanted by Pakistan for his involvement in several terror attacks in the country. He was previously arrested by U.S. forces in Afghanistan in 2016 but was later released after he spent 14 weeks in jail in Afghanistan.

Наследие

Согласно крупной газете о Пакистане, «он жил жизнью над мирскими эмоциями и не считал своих современников соперниками. Когда певец Атиф Аслам проявлял интерес к пению знаменитого Qawwali 'Tajdar-e-Haram', который первоначально пел Отец Амджада, Амджад не только разрешил его, но и похвалил Атифа за то, что он совершил мощное и подходящее исполнение ».

Некролог национального общественного радио для Амджада Сабри дает сводное определение Каввали таким образом: «В Южной Азии Каввали также является одним из самых популярных и соответствующих выражений ислама и суфизма - чрезвычайно разнообразной, мистической ветви ислама, которая подчеркивает иметь личную связь с Богом, а также воспринимать терпимость, мир и равенство ».
