Re: Sami Yusuf

Sami Yusuf was born in July 1980 in Tehran, Iran, but he grew up in London, UK. His family is from Iran (Azerbaijan). 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 a famous composer and musician. Sami is also a 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.
Sami learned to play several instruments at a very young age and gradually began to show a keen interest in singing and composing. He studied under several composers who had graduated from the Royal Academy of Music in London.Sami married a German in 2005. Her name is Maryam, the Arabic version of Mary, or Marian. She converted to Islam five years ago. As Sami mentions in his interviews, at the age of sixteen, he was spiritually awakened. He wanted to leave Music and do something for Islam. He even thought about joining Law School instead, but his best friend Bara Kherigi persuaded him otherwise. In 2003 he started working on Al Mu`alim (The Teacher), his first album. Sami and his friends started their company or foundation by the name of Awakening which produces musical products all over the world. Sami can speak Persian and English, as his family speaks Azeri, but he complains of not speaking Azeri as well. It has been one year that he has been living in Egypt to completing his studies on Islam and Arabic from Al-Zahra university
Sami Yusuf has performed in UK, United States, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Canada, Azerbaijan, Saudi Arabia, Sudan , Germany , Egypt, Kuwait, UAE, France, Sweden, Holland, Turkey, Austria, Syria, Yemen, Jordan, Belgium, Qatar, Morocco and some other countries. He has released five music clips and the sixth is still not on television yet, but it was viewed in the Trafalgar square in London.
