When He was working in folk lore music, He spread the diligences and dialects of thari lok music. He segregated significant lok songs. Ustad Shafi Faqeer's lok songs have became popular, obedient, regardful and respectable in overall Pakistan. He not only sing but also talk with validity and power on the intensity of music. This is rare in most singers. He said that lok music is so much difficult to sing for any singer. There are so many singers of lok music and neo-classical,But in classical music Ustad fateh Ali khan is one and only in Sindh. Which is country level singer. Music arises from societies and Societies have to beware the music. Music is still present in sindh due to shrines of sufis. Ustad Shafi Faqeer also became popular in front of those peoples who understand the music who have knowledge about music just like Sain makhdoom Talib-al- Moula, sain raes Kareem bux Nizamani, sain peer ghulam rasool shah Jeelani, Mithal Saaen, Saaen Juriyal Shah, Saaen Qalander Bux, Saaen makhdoom Naveed zaman, Saaen Abdul Kareem pali, saaen Sufi fateh, Saaen Samar ali Jhanyan, Saaen Jimmon Dal, Saaen mithal Pali, Saaen Mehdi shah, Saaen Sufi attaullah Satari, Saaen Faqeer wali Bux and much more.

And also sing at 3 more shrines every year, which have huge amount of devotees and ustad told that I can't explain the intensity of soul relaxation at the shrines programmes basically. I am writing this preface about ustad shafi Faqeer I have a doctorate thesis of Dr. Mohd Ali Manjhi "Sufi shah inayat shaeed and respective poets "in front of my eyes. After reading of this book I had written on back side with the pencil that "anyone present in sindh who by taking this topic can do Ph.D on it"??? He remain attached with Kabeer foundation 7 years and He sang Shah Abdul latif Bhitai, Rumi, Sachal, Meeran Bai, and Umar Khayam with the heart touching voice. In the period of 1984- 1987 the literature environment of mithi remain active in distinct literature programs and stage dramas, at that time when youth had programmed for different personalities and some personalities didn't reach at that time and the programs was being converted with the name of ustad shafi Faqeer. At Islamabad in 1998 Aarab Jafari and some others programmed with the name of ustad shafi faqeer. In that program khuda bux naabeen and other thari singers participated and that program was memorizable and still. Ustad shafi Faqeer told that in Lahore there is a govt institute of music learning but in sindh no one have settled any musical institute which is at the govt level. But we should have to settle it particularly in arts council and cultural complex. He is the follower of ustad Salamat Ali khan, ustad senghar saleem, Mai Bhagi, Reshma and Mai dhai. He always went happily and willingly in the friend's literature programs and their own. He doesn't focuses on fees. After the death of Ameer Bux Shar, at the birthday of Ameer bux's son He went and sang without any pay fees. There are so many examples just like this. Still He is being awarded with more than 300 awards including 17 misri shah award, shah latif award, ustad manzoor Ali khan award, ustad gulzar award, ustad mohd jimmon award, Thar award, Governor sindh cultural award, aetraf fun lok virsa award, pride of performance and many more. Pride of performance recently got in 2018. Which is country level. On the personality of ustad shafi Faqeer not written so much. But in 1996 or 1997 period Rasool Bux Dars and his contemporary had taken enumerated interview. After that no one have taken interview. Close friends should have to write something for this personality. I have visited Ghadrro with Sajid Bajeer, Liaqat Nohri and Ghazi Nohri where Shafi Faqeer went and sing with warmly at every rain fall.

Whole mankind slept, My wakefulness burned, From the commencement of song, soul created music, Fire fluttered with dampness and life flickered. -Shah abdul Latif Bhitai- Written by: Barumal Amrani Book: Thar, Thar andr Thaak. Translated by: Mahesh Laduwanee
