The New Album My Ummah

Islamic Art, whether in the form of calligraphy, tiles, or music is all inspired by divine love and beauty. Music is a gift from God and is a tool which can be used but also (as it often is) misused. Indeed, nearly all Muslim countries have a rich history of Islamic spiritual music, each with its distinctive sound and flavour.

Unfortunately, due to many reasons,this heritage has long been in decline. It is my sincere wish that this humble album be one of the many artistic endeavours being undertaken to shape a new British-Muslim or Western-Muslim culture.

I also felt obliged and motivated to contribute through this album to the positive efforts already being undertaken by the Muslim community to show the real face of Islam as understood by the majority of Muslims which is one of peace and tolerance. I hope that this album goes even a short way towards this aim, and I pray that God accepts it 

My Ummah intro

Aynal ummah?
Where is the ummah?

Rabbana unsurna
Qawwina wahhidna
Ilayka iltaja’na
Our Lord help us
Make us strong and united
In You we have sought refuge 

We Will Never Submit 

Lan nakhdha'
Lan narhal
Lan naskut
Lan nansa

We will never submit
We will never leave
We will never be silenced
We will never forget
