Rizwan and Muazzam honed their craft under the guidance of their father, Mujahid Mubarak Ali Khan, who died in 1996, and later received mentorship from their uncle, Nusrat.
They perform in traditional Qawwali style - sitting on the ground rather than on seats - which they believe brings them closer to God.

As of 2023[update] the group includes the two brothers, along with seven male artists on harmonium, chorus, and hand percussion.
