Nasyid ”The Choose One” This song and the video are inspired by Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him. Maher Zain and Awakening Records felt they had to respond to the recent attacks on Prophet Muhammad through cartoons and Facebook. The result is this music video. It’s a small attempt at portraying the true character of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). In a time of darkness and greed It is your light that we need You came to teach us how to live Muhmmad, ya Rasoola Allah You were so caring and kind Your soul was full of light You are the best of mankind Muhammad, khairu khalqi Allah Chorus: Sallou ’ala Rasooli Allah Habibil Mustafa Peace be upon the Messenger The Chosen One From luxury you turned away And all night you would pray Truthful in every word you say Muhammad, ya Rasoola Allah Your face was brighter than the sun Your beauty equalled by none You are Allah’s Chosen One Muhammad, khayru khalqi Allah Chorus I’ll try to follow your way And do my best to live my life As you taught me I pray to be close to you On that day, and see you smile When you see me Chorus Lyrics: Bara Kherigi Melody & Arrangement: Maher Zain © Awakening Records 2010 Less
