Allah Mehdi Hasan sahab ki maghfirat farmaye, he was a true legend and did full justice to his field of music. We are proud of you. God bless you.
Re: mehdi hassan passed away
He is scheduled to be buried on Friday.
There is enough time for somebody in government to have some sense
and plan an official burial with a guard of honor salute.

Here you go:
Re: mehdi hassan passed away
^ Awesome, LC. Thanks, much. :k:. Can’t wait to listen.
Re: mehdi hassan passed away
Nice one. I wish it was done in their younger days/voices. Laments
Re: mehdi hassan passed away
His film songs were to die for more than his ghazals, in my opinion.

May his Soul rest in peace!
he'll always be a touchstone for me to compare anybody's ghazals with!

Re: mehdi hassan passed away
Inna lillahi wa inallah-e-rajiunn
Let's pray for him rather than play his songs as this will be more beneficial to his soul.
I don't understand why they are delaying his burial, according to muslim traditon, shouldn't it be sooner, rather than later?
Re: mehdi hassan passed away
I think they are waiting for at least one of his sons to come to Karachi

Correct, PTV news also mentioned about waiting for his sons to arrive from America.
