Greetings all,

Just enjoying a lovely cup of coffee at the Airport while awaiting to board for my flight to New York.  I decided to check a few of my emails/messages and “Wow” If only you knew how much I’m moved and inspired by these messages… Trust me, it’s more than you can all imagine The following are a few recent messages I cherish and adore:

Marija, Macedonia

“I hope that you will read this message and that you will if Allah want,you will soon give me an answer.My name is Marija,and i am your big fan from Skopje, Macedonia. I guess that you know where Macedonia is… Maybe this is a litlle strange to many people that i am your big fan and that i like your songs, becouse I am not a muslim ( not yet anyway!). I am a christian but i love your songs very much and I really like you and respect you as a very good and nice person, and a great songwriter. Even my kid Kristina who is only 4 years old love your songs and your videos and her favorite songs are ”Mother” and ” Al-mu allim”.I cant tell you who my favorite song is becouse i love all your songs, but i like the most ”Make a prayer”, ” My Ummah”, ”Hasbi rabbi”, ”Without you”, and most of all ” Come to me”.The reason for writing you this is that I hope that you could make my biggest dream come true, and that is to see you on a concert here in Macedonia.You have many fens here but i am still your biggest fan. So, I hope that Allah will answer my prayers and you will come to Macedonia and make a great comcert! Even i am a christian,I live with a muslims all my life ,I like them, and I like Islam too.You make me to love Islam and the prophet even more.And thank you for your beautifull songs. So, please make my dream come true and please come to Macedonia. May Allah blees you and be always with you and your family.

With love from your biggest fan from Macedonia.
Marija.”

“AsSalaamu Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatu Sami,

I pray you are doing well Sami. I am sending you a message not to thank or praise you, but to inform you that if we had more people in the world just like you, i would say this Dunyia would be in a much condition. SubhanA’allah, i have listened to all your English tracks and every time i listen to them I feel much better. After listening to your new track “You Came to Me” I do not only feel better but I forget all my problems (this is the only thing that has been playing in my car for the past two weeks ). As I said I am not sending you a message to thank or praise you, but i am messaging you to have you recognize what you have done to help guide some muslims.

Recently, I was watching/listening to your recent interview with Riz wallahi i had tears dropping down my eyes at the end of the interview. I know you do a lot of humanity work. Since my childhood, I always wanted to help the poor, I have thought of many different ways that might help the needy…

I appreciate you taking time out to read my message. May Allah bless and keep you/ family safe. Amen!

Ahsan Kadeer”

“Hi sami,
I just got lucky to listen you while searching some other song. I am a big fan of u. U hav got meaning in u r songs. People today have lost thoughts which have meaning and u r reviving a dead thought process. If ever you plan to perform in India, I will be the first to get tickets.”
