About the Author

Inspired by the age-old use of traditional arts to unite people in their common experiences, joys, and struggles, Canadian-born author, artisan, and musician Dawud (David) Wharnsby began writing and performing during his late teens. Over thirty years later, his poetry and songs continue to circulate with lives of their own.

In time-honoured, folk-music custom, Wharnsby's melodies can be heard ringing out around the world in primary schools, places of worship, rallies, conventions, and sing-a-longs, his lyrics having found their way into the hearts of listeners regardless of age.

As a voice for the socially conscious and spiritually motivated, his books, recordings and live presentations on multiple continents have inspired two generations of educators, musicians, poets, artists, and professionals. Within sacred music circles, Wharnsby is cited as a pioneer in the composition of English nasheed, hymns inspired by Qur'anic tradition. Some of his most popular works have been referenced in textbook publications affiliated with schools and universities in the USA, Canada, Europe, and the United Kingdom. Translations and musical transcriptions appear in songbooks worldwide.

Working with production teams in several countries, Wharnsby has hosted numerous television programs and documentaries for both children and adults, often also composing their music. His handiwork as an artisan includes photography, painting, puppetry, storytelling, illustration, and film production.
