Fig.4-6 Sami Yusuf in his expensive apartment and performing ablutions before prayer in the video for Al-MuÕallim; helping a blind man cross the street.

Figs. 7-8 Sami Yusuf helping a blind man in Al-MuÕallim contrasts with the largely normative music video below. An image of a voluptuous female figure in ShirinÕs video Sabri ÔAlil. Note that Sami YusufÕs video does not have text messages scrolling across the bottom of the screen. Another example of attempts to separate the religious from the mundane.
