Born in Washington DC and raised in Maryland, Raef has shared his music with faith-based communities across the world. In the early 2000s, he sang tenor in a college a cappella group and played his acoustic guitar at local coffee shops. Raef was introduced to the national stage after his trio rock-band "Great Seneca" toured the United States as part of the "Voices for Change" initiative. Shortly afterwards, Raef joined the "Poetic Vision Tour" - a band of traveling musicians and poets dedicated to inspiring a spiritual and cultural renewal. More recently, Raef started working with Awakening Records and in 2014 released his debut album "The Path" , a collection of songs that reflects his identity as an American Muslim and his journey throughout the years.

IT'S JUMUAH - LYRICS
5AM Waking up for Fajr
Got to make Wudu, got to pray my Sunnah
Got to make Ghusl, got to clip my nails
Looking outside, the sun is rising up in the sky
Everybody's rushing
Got to get down to the masjid
Got to say "Salam!" to the Imam
Sitting in the first Saff (row), chilling in the back Saff (row)
Got to make my mind up... Do what the prophet did!
It's Jumuah! Jumuah!
Got to make dhikr on Jumuah,
Everybody's looking forward to His mercy, mercy
Jumuah! Jumuah!
Got to make dhikr on Jumuah,
Everybody's looking forward to the Ajr
Miswaking!, Miswaking!
Miswaking!, Miswaking!
Pray, Pray , Pray, Pray
Got to read Surat Al-Kahf
12:45 the Imam's on the minbar, talking about something like "Fiqh Az-Zakat"
They're whispering, chatting from the crowd, don't they know that it's haram
I stand up, you stand up, prayer's about to start "Qad, Qaamat es-Salaah"
Foot to foot! shoulder to shoulder! Just don't step on me!
Sitting in the first Saff (row), chilling in the back Saff (row)
Got to make my mind up... Do what the prophet did!
It's Jumuah! Jumuah!
Got to make dhikr on Jumuah,
Everybody's looking forward to his mercy, mercy
Jumuah! Jumuah!
Got to make dhikr on Jumuah,
Everybody's looking forward to the Ajr
Miswaking!, Miswaking!
Miswaking!, Miswaking!
Pray , Pray, Pray , Pray
Got to read Surat Al-Kahf
It's Jumuah Jumuah
Got to make dhikr on Jumuah,
Everybody's looking forward to His mercy, mercy
Jumuah! Jumuah!
Got to make dhikr on Jumuah,
Everybody's looking forward to His mercy
