Quran & Sunnah
Well, I didn't like the idea that these singers like Wael Jassar who make clips with dancing girls who have little cloth on them, to record songs about the love of the prophet etc. How signing about the love of the prophet and at the same time you do the exact opposite of what he says and share in tempting Muslims away from his path!!! I thought he had no credibility. But then I listened to most of the songs of the Album and I actually liked them. I believe the idea of the Album is new. And his voice is very sweet and it touched me. I gave my skeptic view towards such effort another thought. I don't have to judge them because mainly we all make mistakes, we all deviate from God and the prophet's path at some point, still we are Muslims who love God and His prophet. True there are shortcomings but it doesn't stop us from praying upon the prophet when we hear his name for instance. Thus no matter what such singers do, they are Muslims at the end.
Would you believe me if I told you that I never knew or heard of Wail Jassar till I heard recently about his album about the love of the Prophet. I saw Amr Khaled writing about this album in his website and then I googled the name of Wael Jassar and even when I saw his pic I didn't recognize him. When I asked colleagues at work , they told me that he is very known...
Who knows sister, may be by making the first album about our beloved Prophet and singing about him, his life would change for the better and that album will be a turning point in his life... we never know and we should never judge any body. Since he is a Muslim, we never know what his life will be later on... we have seen many actors, singers who repented and walked on the right path.
I don't watch video clips and I don't listen to music other than the Islamic music, that's why I don't know who is Jassar. May Allah guide him to the right path and guide us all.
not4me said:Still, I think we should get over the words and poems phase to the actions phase. How many songs are about the prophet and our love to him, yet we actually don't do much in reality.
True! the action phase is the most important phase. And we will never change until words turn into action. May our dear Allah be pleased with us and guide us to the right path, ameen!
