On 16 February 2017, a suicide bombing took place inside the Shrine of Lal Shahbaz Qalandar in Sehwan, Sindh, Pakistan, where pilgrims were performing a Sufi ritual after the evening prayers.[2][10][11] At least 90 people were killed and over 300 injured.[3][8][12][13][14]
The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant – Khorasan Province claimed responsibility for the bombing.[10] Services at the shrine were resumed the next day in an act of defiance against terrorists,[15] while leading Pakistani performers partook in the traditional Sufi whirling dance at the shrine a few days later as a protest against the radical Islamist perpetrators.[16]
The attack followed a series of terrorist incidents earlier in the month, including a suicide attack in Lahore. Pakistani authorities alleged that the attacks were orchestrated by jihadists in Afghanistan.[17]

Kermani told reporters the idea behind her dance "was to tell the perpetrators of terrorism that nobody can stop dance and music. These are part of our heritage, our culture." The artist said she intended to perform 'dhamaal', the ecstatic spiritual dance which the saint used to perform in his life.
