ISLAMIC and Sacred Music Traditions Of The World (VIDEOS) by ENGAGE CHITTARKOTTAI JAMATH


ISLAMIC and Sacred Music Traditions Of The World (VIDEOS) by ENGAGE CHITTARKOTTAI JAMATH



A. R. Rahman with his wife Saira Banu

On 1995 March 12, A. R. Rahman got married to Saira Banu, sister-in-law of the Tamil actor Rahman and the daughter of a Madras based businessman. It was a arranged Marriage. Now they have two daughters Kathija and Raheema and a son Roomi.

There is something -- well, everything, really -- about that spiritual experience that is ineffable and eternally elusive. It's no wonder, then, that an integral part of virtually all major world faith traditions is music. It is the language of the soul, after all. What can't be said in words can certainly be expressed in melody and felt in  rhythm.ENGAGE CHITTARKOTTAI JAMATH  has compiled here a series of photos and videos of timeless musical devotion. While this collection is woefully incomplete, it is intended to be an introduction to the world's major sacred music traditions, as well as a peek at some of the modern permutations of thatspiritual practice. In the future, we hope to delve more deeply into the songs and sounds of specific faiths. But for now, enter the melody and see what is revealed.
A R Rahman lives in his joint family. The family consists of himself, his wife Saira Banu, his 3 sisters (Raihana, Talath and Israth), his mother (Kareema Begum), his two daughters (Kadhija and Raheema) and a son ( Khwaja Mohammad Roomi Rahman ).

His sisters Raihana, Talath and Israth are professionally trained musicians. They often sing for him, and appear on stage performances as well.
Sister Raihana's son, GV Prakash is a born talent, and he's into music. He has sung songs for Rahman and now is an emerging music director.
Rahman's mother and wife do play the most important part in his music - they are his critics.
