Without You is an album by British singer Sami Yusuf, released on 17 January 2009, following the release of his chart-topping albums Al-Muʽallim and My Ummah.
Sami Yusuf claimed that this album was released without his prior "blessings nor consent".
He stated: "I therefore wish to make it perfectly clear that an album comprised of any such recordings could only be put on to the market against my wishes and without my approval.
"[1] Yusuf subsequently stated on his website that the album was released without his knowledge or consent, and is a compilation of demos and sketches with a quality inferior to his standards.
[1][2] The contractual dispute lasting from 2008 to 2009 lead to Yusuf legally separating from Awakening Records, completely disowning this album, and claiming that Wherever You Are released with ETM International is his real third album.
