Public reception edit

Wayah was released for sale in stores but the album was leaked online and illegally downloaded. Diab fans began a massive boycott of those sites and went to stores to support the artist.[2]

Commercial performance edit

The album topped the sales list, after selling more than 100,000 copies on the first day of its release, and has achieved sales of more than 3 million since its release in the summer of 2009.[3][4]
