Sabri was a leading exponent of Sufi devotional music, known as Qawwali.
Sufism, a tolerant, mystical practice of Islam, has millions of followers in Pakistan - but in recent years has come under attack from hard-line Islamists.
Sabri was among the sub-continent`s top Qawwali singers.
He was the son of the late Ghulam Farid Sabri, who headed the Sabri brothers, a leading Sufi music band that has dominated the Qawwali scene in Pakistan and India since the 1970s.
