Badar Ali Khan, also commonly known as Badar Miandad, was a renowned Pakistani Qawwal with a significant impact on the world of Sufi music. Born into a prestigious family of Qawwals, Badar Ali inherited the rich tradition and the passion for Qawwali from his forefathers; he was the cousin of the legendary Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. This lineage instilled in him a deep understanding and mastery of the art form, which he expressed through his powerful vocals and moving performances.

Throughout his career, Badar Ali Khan captivated audiences with his soulful renditions and spiritual fervor, becoming one of the eminent figures in the devotional genre of Qawwali. His repertory included a blend of traditional Sufi poetry and contemporary expressions, which allowed him to connect with a wide range of listeners. Albums like "Best Qawwali's of Badar Miandad Ali Khan" encapsulate his command over the genre, while tracks such as "Muhammad Mustafa" and "Aaj Rang Hai Ri Maa" are a testament to his ability to evoke deep spiritual emotions. Despite his passing in 2007, his music continues to resonate and inspire new generations of Sufi music enthusiasts around the globe.
