His debut album, ‘The Path’ with Awakening Music introduced his work to a global audience, taking us on a journey through aspects of his faith and stories from his life.

Raef hit it big in Indonesia and for the last four years has been the star of a Ramadan TV series, ‘Journey of a Backpacker’. In the series, Raef visits notable Indonesian towns and cities exploring the history of Islam in Nusantara.

Raef’s sophomore album ‘Mercy’ was released to critical acclaim further contribuing to the every flourishing Muslim American culture. He is currently busy at work on a book and MiniMuslims, a music project for children.
