A world-renowned singer-songwriter has launched a new single in aid of flood victims in Pakistan.
Sami Yusuf will donate the profits of Hear Your Call to Save the Children's flood appeal and is calling on his fans to do more to support the aid effort.
Mr Yusuf said that all human beings have an obligation to help out during an "enormous disaster" such as the Pakistan floods.
"In such times we have to align ourselves with the right organisations to reach out to the affected areas as effectively and urgently as possible," the singer stated.
He added that 20 million people have been affected by the floods, including an estimated nine million children.
The musician has sold more than seven million albums worldwide.
Save the Children is currently operating in all four provinces of Pakistan that have been hit and has so far provided shelter and provisions for some 305,000 people.
