26th February, 2011: alas, this is a night i’d never forget. to attend my favourite singer’s concert is just a dream come true. i know lots of people in my home country, Brunei Darussalam would love to go to his concert, & thank you Allah Syukur Alhamdulillah that i was really lucky to catch him live in concert!
his songs are so inspiring, spiritually & he “is fast becoming the next superstar of Islamic music.” from young children, to old people, he is gaining many fans from the Muslim community.
a week before the concert, he wrote a song called “Freedom” & it is dedicated to the people of Egypt, who have gained their rights to be independent recently. he also dedicated the song to the other Middle Eastern countries, such as Libya, in which, we hope that they share the same luck with Egypt. he sang the song for the first time during the concert, & it’s really amazing!
he also brought along a couple of guests artists, who are also his friends, Mesut Kurtis & Irfan Makki. ah, what more can i say, masyaAllah!! a bonus, i must say! :-) it’ll be more awesome if Sami Yusuf was there, but maybe next time!
