Raihan: Demi Masa

About Raihan
Raihan (Fragrance of Heaven in Arabic) is a Malaysian Nasheed group originally composed of five members that took Malaysia by storm with the release of their debut album Puji-Pujian in October of 1996. This group comprised of Nazrey Johani, Che Amran Idris, Abu Bakar Md Yatim and Azhari Ahmad as the leader. Produced by Farihin Abdul Fattah, Puji-Pujian grossed sales of more than 650,000 units.

However, on 29 August 2001, one of the founding members/header, Azhari Ahmad, died of a heart attack shortly after attending the Era Awards ceremony in Genting Highlands, Pahang.

The remaining four members, Nazrey Johani, Che Amran Idris, Abu Bakar Md Yatim and Amran Ibrahim have continued releasing album after album. So far, Raihan has released a total of 11 albums and has won many awards in Malaysia. To date, Raihan had won AIM Anugerah Kembara three time for their extensive international tours.

Nazrey Johani recently resigned from Raihan and is replaced by Nordin Jaafar. However, in early January 2007, Nordin Jaafar himself resigned from Raihan. He was replaced by Zulfadli Bin Mustaza.

Raihan's motto is 'Pray Hard, Work Smart'.

On Demi Masa, Raihan perform the Hadist:
"Pergunakanlah lima perkara sebelum datang lima perkara yang lain. Pertama, masa hidupmu sebelum datang kematianmu. Kedua, masa sehatmu sebelum datang masa sakitmu. Ketiga, masa luangmu sebelum datang masa sibukmu. Keempat, masa mudamu sebelum datang masa tuamu. Kelima, masa kayamu sebelum datang masa miskinmu." (HR. Hakim).
