dc.description.abstractFakeer Society has been interacting and influencing in Sri Lankan Muslims’ culture throughout the history with their activities related to art and literature.

They have produced number of songs and performed them with the musical instrument called “Dahara” in platforms such as stage, home yard of people and common places where people gather, in order to convey moral thoughts and teaching. Their songs mainly consist of religious & spiritual thoughts and social issues.
