A man clad in a simple attire, Zain Bhikha has a beautiful voice, amplified further by his lyrical composition of his songs. Hailing from South Africa, he has traveled across the world, spreading the message of love, compassion and change through his songs and impacting the lives of his listeners. Indeed, his latest album’s title is a testament to his whole life works, a passing Traveller.

The Passing Traveller: The titular song

[youtube url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ISOfiyxI0yA”]

Taking a leaf out of his titular song, The Passing Traveller, ‘I’m but a stranger in a hostile world’ describes his travel in this world that is seemingly hostile towards us Muslims, but should we persevere and hold on to our faith, we would be among those that succeed. It further exemplifies the need to not just create a better world to only Muslims, but also for the non-Muslims, for protecting and helping them is part of our Iman. Indeed, this song captures the essence of his album: A spiritual journey that looks through the lies of this world, yet finds the gems that are within each and everyone of us and helping us to bring that shine for the world to see.

The evoking ‘Allah Remains’

Staying true to the theme of a spiritual journey, the song ‘Allah Remains’ serves as a powerful reminder to us, on our life choices and accountability to each of our choices. “But I believe my soul to be, a gift of Allah’s grace” – a line that prompts our mind of our faith to Allah S.W.T and evoking us to do what is good and right to others, and never to be arrogant in our way of life. The songs bring us down the path of arrogant kings, of ageless books and monuments and how we must steer our path to be the true path. Written by Zain’s dear friend Dawud Wharnsby, this songs is the perfect companion to the ‘The Passing Traveller’ song.

Of Science and Religion. And Children

A song meant for children, the song ‘Allah Made Everything’ touches on science, religion and its impact on children. As with some of his earlier songs, Zain Bhika touches our hearts and minds, by reminding us that for every scientific advancement, it is through Allah’s wisdom and creation that got us where we are now. The lyrics in a way describes how we should advance ourselves, but to always remember that we are the Creation of Allah S.W.T; Uplifting us to a higher level of understanding and perception of this world. The song and music video accompanied one another in a perfect and beautiful unison.

Of Halal Entertainment and Comedy

Omar Regan – Hollywood actor, stand up comedian and founder of Halalywood.

The most important note in a Nasheed’s music video, the aim is to create a more Sharia-compliant entertainment videos that complement the song through outstanding visual performance. In this particular music video, Omar Regan, a comedian and proponent of Halalywood Entertainment, lends his comedic antiques as an eclectic school teacher to a most delightful cast of children from the Islamia College in Cape Town. In it, Omar Regan goes through the process of teaching the children regarding the creations of Allah through plays and songs; definitely not an easy task for him. A very refreshing outlook on most common music videos, for not only it highlights how important it is we teach our children on who is our Creator is, but to also encourage us to further scientific development without losing our Islamic roots. And with the introduction of Omar Regan, a way for more Muslims to be better and ‘cleaner’ comedians in a way that brings us closer to Allah and in a way, bring a new form of Da’wah that touches the lives of others and bringing them a deeper understanding of Islam.

I'm Not Ready To Let You Go - Zain Bhikha.

Iconic Zain Bhikha who has won the hearts of Muslims throughout the word for three decades of song, story and the Dada and Me children’s series, releases a deeply personal song after many years. “I’m Not Ready To Let You Go” is an emotionally moving tribute to his beloved father Rashid Bhikha, a man who embodied faith, strength, unwavering love for his family, and left his mark on the world for his contribution to medicine and humanity.

Zain’s songs have always been a reflection of his personal life’s journey reflecting his faith, but more so, the meandering nature of being human, and this one is no different.

With hundreds of songs inspiring and motivating hearts towards Allah, “I’m Not Ready To Let You Go” is undoubtedly going to become a comfort and a favourite of Zain Bhikha fans.

Selain Munif Hjjaz, seorang lagi figura yang aktif menghasilkan karya secara konsisten, tidak lain tidak bukan, penyanyi dan komposer terkenal; Daqmie.

Kali ini, Daqmie bekerjasama dengan Pertubuhan Kebajikan Islam Malaysia (PERKIM) Cawangan Datuk Keramat menghasilkan sebuah lagu raya terbaru berjudul Yang Mulia. Lagu ini disampaikan oleh Daqmie dan Mestica.

Pengerusi PERKIM Cawangan Datuk Keramat; Ustaz Mohamad Suhaimi Abdul Aziz yang juga merupakan penulis lirik, berkata lagu tersebut mengisahkan hubungan masyarakat dengan golongan mualaf di negara ini.

“Lagu tersebut dinyanyikan oleh Daqmie dan juga Kumpulan Mestica yang mengisahkan hubungan antara masyarakat dengan golongan mualaf.

“Ia sebagai salah satu usaha dakwah kami agar masyarakat turut sama terlibat dengan usaha yang kami gerakkan ini sekaligus membantu mereka yang memerlukan,” katanya ketika sidang akhbar yang diadakan di sini.

Menurutnya idea penghasilan single ini tercetus hasil perbincangan dengan Daqmie yang juga merupakan komposer bagi lagu tersebut.

“Selaku Duta Mualaf PERKIM Datuk Keramat, Daqmie pernah melontarkan idea agar usaha dakwah PERKIM tidak terlalu terikat dengan kaedah lama namun harus dipelbagai agar sesuai dengan zaman.

“Bermula dari situ maka terlahirlah lagu ini yang turut diterapkan dengan melodi kontemporari bagi menarik minat masyarakat khususnya generasi muda.

“Kami mengharapkan dengan kepakaran dan populariti Daqmie dan kumpulan Mestica dapat menarik minat lebih ramai anak muda dengan kerja dakwah yang aktif di platform digital dan media sosial,” ujarnya pula.

Terdahulu PERKIM Datuk Keramat meraikan golongan mualaf dengan mengadakan Majlis Berbuka Puasa sekaligus melancarkan single raya tersebut.

Sementara itu Daqmie ketika mengulas berkata cabaran utama ketika penghasilan lagu ini ialah kekangan masa sambil berharap single raya ini dapat diterima masyarakat.

“Antara cabaran ketika menghasilkan lagu ini ialah masa yang diberi agak suntuk. Ketika Ustaz (Suhaimi) maklumkan PERKIM mahu terbit lagu raya pada mulanya saya agak terkejut.

“Namun setelah berbincang dengan rakan-rakan kami akhirnya bersetuju menerima cabaran ini, alhamdulliah kerjasama yang diberikan semua pihak akhirnya single ini berjaya direalisasikan.

“Semoga lagu ini dapat diterima semua pihak sekaligus memeriahkan sambutan Aidilfitri pada tahun ini,” katanya pula.

Pemilihan kumpulan Mestica sebagai rakan duet dalam lagu ini dilihat mampu mengubat rindu dikalangan peminat Mestica yang sentiasa menantikan karya baharu dari kumpulan nasyid popular tersebut.

Lagu Yang Mulia telah berada di pasaran dan boleh distrim di semua platform penstriman muzik digital yang sah. Manakala video muzik Yang Mulia boleh ditonton di saluran Youtube Daqmie Channel.

Untuk rekod PERKIM merupakan organisasi yang aktif dengan kerja-kerja dakwah dan kebajikan untuk menyebarluaskan syiar Islam kepada golongan Islam dan belum Islam di negara ini.
