Yusuf Reaches Out To Asia

This Saturday (October 31st) Yusuf will be performing at a charity gala dinner and auction for the Reach Out To Asia (ROTA) foundation, taking place at the new museum of Islamic art in Doha, Qatar.

The foundation focuses on community development projects in Asia, promoting global responsibility for basic, quality primary education – a subject very close to Yusuf’s heart.

The auction – directed by Sotheby’s – will see a unique selection of jewellery, paintings, hand crafted art and other collectibles, a super luxury car and a luxury apartment going under the hammer. Donors include Adler Jewellers and Amiri Gems, Cartier, HermÃ¨s, Sir Richard Branson, UDC, Lorenzo Quinn and Sacha Jafri.

The money raised will go towards ongoing projects across the continent.

2. Having been a long time fan of your music (I first heard "Wild World" in 1972) I welcome this site. Your beliefs make you who you are. I do believe there is but one true God. We may call Him by a different name, but we follow Him. As a devout Christian, I would welcome you into my home at any time. Thank you for your sincerity and the love you show the world. Peace to you.

5. Peace be upon you .. How are you my brother YUSUF I want you know that by doing charity for your business you are in all over the world feed us and offers us the vitality and energy to the service of humanity .. Not imagine my happiness when I KNOW that you are in Qatar to attend the festival (ROTA), because I live in Qatar, I went to the Islamic Museum in order to bring the concert but was saddened to forbid me from entering and said it was for VIP only .. I waited from 5 p.m. to 11 pm I said to myself maybe I can meet him when she goes out, but unfortunately I do not see .. God bring us together one day .. I am sure of that .. you know that there are people who love you and hope to meet you .. But you do not know who they are but God knows ..

9. Yusuf, your kindness and on going charity and help to all continues. You move faster than we can keep up with you. We are surely blessed by your return - and your never ending conviction to helping those in need. The world thanks you.

10. This is a great reminder of how both wealth and poverty are tests from God. Charity purifies wealth of greed and - by fulfilling needs and relieving suffering - charity purifies poverty of bitterness. May God bless us all with grateful hearts. Thank you for participating in this, Yusuf. Please let us know what song(s) you performed.
