Muslim’s vocal delivery is technically sophisticated, yet tender. His versatile musicality is rooted in a convergence of histories. He descends from Bhai Mardana (1459-1534), the muslim musician companion of Guru Nanak, the founder of Sikhism. This lineage of Rababi musicians eventually adopted the Gwalior style of Hindustani vocal music. Muslim was trained by one of its finest exponents, his grandfather, Ustad Ghulam Hassan Shaggan, who carefully prepared him to carry on this centuries old legacy from the young age of 7. 

Today, Muslim is one of the most accomplished classical vocalists of his generation in Pakistan. He regularly performs at all major classical music festivals and venues in the country, as well as radio and television. Beyond Muslim's prowess in the Khayal genre, he is equally adept at a variety of other South Asian musical forms, including contemporary and folk styles. His musical experiments are rooted in traditional knowledge, yet unconstrained by its rigorous methodologies
