Summary

Puji-Pujian ("Praises") is the debut album of the Malaysian nasheed group Raihan, produced by Farihin Abdul Fattah and released by Warner Music Malaysia; the English article dates it to October 1996 and the discography of the Malay article to 2 January 1997, and the museum records both. 1 2

The songs

It has ten songs in Malay: 'Puji-Pujian', 'Peristiwa Subuh', 'Iman Mutiara', 'Sifat 20', 'Rakan Selawat' in two versions, one for the Mawlid with Ustaz Amaluddin, 'Sesungguhnya', 'Rayuan Rindu', 'Kembali' and 'Assolatuwasalam', also with Ustaz Amaluddin. 2

Reach

The English article reports sales of more than 750,000 copies in Malaysia and, citing the group's official site, calls it Malaysia's best-selling album, twelve times platinum, and double platinum in Singapore. 1 The same article gives total sales figures that vary between 1.5 and 3.5 million and no date for the certifications, so the museum tells them as attributed reports rather than dated certifications. 1

Sami Yusuf's debut album, released by Awakening in 2003 after the label signed him as its first artist; its title, 'The Teacher', refers to the Prophet. The Guardian reported in 2012 that it sold 3 million copies and that, with My Ummah, it led Time magazine to call Sami Yusuf 'Islam's biggest rock star' and set the bar for the young nasheed industry.
