One of the muscians who became naat khawan was Junaid Jamshed. It is a youthful devoted voice with southfull voice and refulgent sound. His voice strikes the huge expression of love, and warmthness to Allah the almighty. His famous naats that helped him to gain the unique identity in the world of naat khawani are Qasida Burda Shareef, Madad Ae Mere Allah, Yeh Zameen O Aasman, Teri Rehmat ki Atta, Faizan E Muhammad.
Junaid Jamshed (3 September, 1964 – 7 December, 2016) was a Pakistani artist, television actor, designer, singer, and songwriter, but Allah had a different plan for him and guided him to become an Islamic preacher. After graduating with a degree in engineering from the University of Engineering and Technology, Lahore, Junaid worked as a civil contractor and also served as an engineer in the Pakistan Air Force (PAF).
Eventually, he left his music career as he grew deeply in love with Islam. Some of his close friends advised him that since Allah had gifted him with a sweet and melodious voice, he should leave the world of music and instead use his voice to recite Naats and spread the message of Islam. This advice marked the beginning of his new journey as a Naat reciter.
J. is the brand name of the clothing store that Junaid Jamshed owned, located in Lahore. The store specializes in designer Kurtas and Shalwars, which are delivered to customers throughout the country.
In addition to his devotion to Islam, Junaid was actively involved in charity work across Pakistan. Since 2003, he worked with the NGO Muslim Charity. Even after leaving the music industry, he remained a vocalist and released many Naat albums. He also hosted several Islamic television programs as an anchorperson.
Junaid Jamshed's final journey was to Chitral, where he was involved in Tableegh. On December 7, 2016, he boarded PIA Flight 661 to Islamabad in a poorly maintained aircraft. Tragically, the plane crashed in Havelian, KPK, and all on board, including Junaid and his wife, lost their lives. Despite the bodies being badly burned, they were easily identifiable by their family members.
