Quote:As for the Muslim at work i spoke to him a bit more and he's having a child soon, and he's chosen ramadaan as time to change but he drinks so much he says he's gonna find it difficult. I just listened more than anything and suggested cutting down the drinks he has from several a week to a few and then from a few to one, and then from one to none. Allah is of course the only one who can help him truely, but i didn't say that...i figured it patronising, i'm sure he knows.
Very nice of u to remind him, may Allah Subhanahu Wa' Ta'la guide him and pull him out of it . Ameeeeeeeeeeeeeeen

About sami yusuf:
About the Munshid (singer):
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. Samis 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 worlds 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.
