Abstract
Abstract The style of recitation known as qaṣīda, popular among Shiʿi Muslims in the Pakistani province of Punjab, discloses love for the Ahl-e Bait, the family of the Prophet Muhammad, and rejection of those who harmed them. Examining the conditions through which the Shiʿa celebrate and disclose their faith, this article traces the recent history and contemporary form of a genre of panegyric recitation and its relationship with the different moral and affective thresholds that characterize the Pakistani Shiʿi majlis.
