ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Qalandariyya

Okay kiddo, have you ever heard of qalandariyya? No? Well, it's a type of religious group or brotherhood in many parts of the Islamic world.

Now, these people believe in following a spiritual path that involves living a simple and humble lifestyle. They often wear simple clothes and live in poverty to focus on their spiritual growth.

Sometimes they perform special rituals that involve dancing, singing, and even sometimes wild behavior to connect with their spirituality. This might look a little strange to us, but it's an important way for them to feel close to God and their community.

Some people might not understand or agree with the ways of the qalandariyya, but to them, it's a very meaningful and important part of their faith.
