Brother Sami

This is the smallest thing I could do for you, I wished I'd done more, but this is what I came up with and I have a hope and a prayer in my heart that you'll like it and will read it as well Insha Allah.

With this book, I want to share with you and the world, what you are to me, how much you mean to me and the way you inspire me.

This is a small birthday gift for you, from your sister in a small corner of the world, who hopes to meet you one day and to be remembered by you,  in your thoughts and prayers.

I still remember, although not that well how I actually came to know you. it was through my cousin who was 9 years old then, who came to me and said, "I have listened to this new naat, would you like to listen?" I said, "Yeah, sure, go on". He sang Al-Mua'llim. Although I couldn't understand much of the song because his english was weak then, however I liked the melody. I asked him, "Who sang it? What is the name of this naat?", to both of these he replied that he doesn't know. Whenever he used to visit, I asked him the same question to the extent that he got irritated and started hiding from me :D

In Ramadan, the same year (2011) while I was changing channels, hoping to find something spiritual to watch, I saw the video of Al-Mua'llim, and that was when I came to know you. The first thing I did was then download that songs and then I listened to more of your songs, I really dont know exactly when did I become your supporter, all I know is that I am blessed to be your sister and supporter

I thank Allah so much, He made me know you. Wallahi you are one of Allah's beautiful creations.

Whenever I am distressed, I listen to your songs, I feel that you are talking to me through them. You have always motivated me, boosted me and filled me with hope through your songs. You make me smile when I am sad. I don't have any elder brother except you and I feel so honored and so proud to support you.

I never ever though music could have a motive. You created Spiritique, a music having a definite and a beautiful purpose. Its because of you that today I know many people all across the world and we talk to each other. You created a family through your music, Spiritique. Irregardless of where we are from, what our religion is, we are united with each other because we all have one person whom we admire in common. And thats you dearest brother, who has binded us in an unbreakable bond.

I used to hate classical instruments and classical music. For me, music only meant banging drums, rocking guitar bands and stuff like that. I never thought that classical music or traditional music could be worth listening to until I came to know you and your creation, Spiritique. I used to avoid this sort of music.

The only instruments I knew and loved were the piano, guitar and drums. That was it. I had never heard nor thought that other instruments exist. Through you I came across Tombak, Oud, Santur and other such beautiful instruments.

You beautify these instruments by playing them, make them sound celestial, carry them to a higher level. Its because of you I began to admire the violin, which I thought of as an instrument that can only play sad music. You do magic with every instrument you play with brother.

Without you, these instruments have no beauty in them, they do and will need you to beautify them. You don't need them as you have a pure heart and a God gifted beautiful voice that does not depend on anything but itself

Dearest brother,

Now concluding this very tiny, very humble and insignificant gift for you, with a hope and prayer that you read it and come across it, and that when you do read it Insha Allah, it draws a smile on your face :)

Wherever you go, whatever you do my prayers have and shall always follow you.

May Allah grant you the best of everything, shower blessing on your every single moment, keep you under his protection, protect you from wrongs and bad and always keep you happy.

Have a joyful, blessed and beyond amazing birthday bhaiyya!!!

Your sister

Yusra Hussain
