Description:
Awakening and Sami Yusuf were greatly motivated to produce this project from the outset, and this motivation stemmed from a shared deep conviction that we have a duty to provide an Islamic alternative for the Muslim youth that is vibrant and enjoyable to listen to and is produced to the highest standards of composition, singing, harmonies, sound production and engineering, being in all these aspects a match for any albums produced by the Western music industry, and yet containing the beautiful teachings of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). To this end, Sami Yusuf’s many talents, the best studios, sound engineers and equipment were brought together, no costs were spared and no shortcuts were taken, always keeping as our motto the hadith of the Prophet (pbuh): “Verily Allah loves that if one of you does an action that he perfects it.” Al-Muallim CD is a compilation of some ground-breaking nasheeds by Sami Yusuf. It is intended to provide an Islamic alternative for the Muslim youth that is vibrant and enjoyable to listen to and is produced to the highest standards of composition, singing, sound production and engineering. The product is available on CD as well as audio cassette. It includes the following tracks: •Al-Muallim •Who is the Loved One? •The Cave of Hira •Allahu •The Creator •Meditation •Ya Mustafa •Supplication •Sami Yusuf
Sami Yusuf was born in July 1980. He was born into a musical family and thus music played an integral part in his life. Sami’s initial training came from his father, who is an internationally renowned composer, poet, and a multi-talented musician. Sami learnt to play many instruments at a very young age and gradually began to show a keen interest in singing and composing. At the age of eighteen, he obtained a scholarship to study composition at the Royal Academy of Music in London, one of the world’s most prestigious music institutions. Sami has been composing from a very young age and his beautiful voice is supplemented by his extensive knowledge of notes and harmonies. He also has a good understanding of music theory and the Middle Eastern modes (or Maqams) and solfeggio. Indeed, it is rare to find a person who has all these talents. Sami is also a devout practicing Muslim who sees songs as a means of promoting the message of Islam and encouraging the youth to be proud of their religion and identity.
