REVIEW 'THANK YOU ALLAH - MAHER ZAIN' PART 2
7. The Chosen One
A song about our beloved Prophet Muhammad..
The lyrics are great, but pity that the melody is a bit too slow-paced..
Rating: 3/5
8. Barakallahu Lakuma (Allah's Blessing for Both of You)
A catchy song that will worth repeating over and over again..
Chorus lagu ni ialah doa untuk pengantin baru.. lepas ni ramai yang akan hafal doa pengantin baru gitu..
Lirik lagu penuh dengan well-wishes and advices, a perfect song to dedicate to newly weds..
Rating: 4.5/5
9. For The Rest of My Life
Meneruskan kesinambungan lagu Barakallahu Lakuma, tema lagu ini ialah percintaan antara pasangan suami isteri..
A romantic ballad song.. kalau silap dengar mmg macam bukan nasheed..
Tapi cinta yang diketengahkan ialah cinta yang didasari oleh iman kepada Allah, cinta ke syurga..
Terbuai-buai je dgr lagu ni...
Rating: 4/5
10. Hold My Hand
At this point, you will be familiar with Maher Zain's music signature, which is R&B ballad..
A song about world peace in general, reaching out to all listeners, Muslims and non-Muslims..
In comparison to previous tracks, this track is average.
Rating: 3.5/5
11. Awaken (Is Allah Satisfied with Us?)
Kekuatan lagu ni terletak pada liriknya yang menyentapkan..
Like a smack in the face, this song criticises modern Muslims behaviour..
Yang mengejar duniawi, yang mementingkan diri, yang suka menyalahkan orang lain tanpa merenung diri sendiri..
In my favorite list.. a must-listen..
"I'm walking with my head lowered in shame for my place, I'm walking with my head lower for my race,
Yes it's easy to blame everything on the West, when in fact our focus should be on ourselves.."
Rating: 4.5/5
12. Subhanallah (feat. Mesut Kurtis)
Maher Zain returns with Mid-Eastern melody, typical nasheed style..
But his signature R&B style are detectable in the verses..
Rating: 3/5
13. Open Your Eyes
A perfect closing song for a great album.
An amazing ballad number, and the lyrics just makes you ponder upon things we normally overlooked..
Dari kecil sampai besar, nikmat Allah terlalu banyak sehingga kita selalu take for granted..
Great song, goes into my favourite list.
Aritu tak perasan bole klik link kat post #1..
Thanx anyway..
Belum abes dengar lagi tapi so far it really is a commendable recommendation!!
Masyuk..
The Rest of My Life sangat besh le..
Melodi ngan vocal arrangements tu satu la - kinda remind me of old BSB sounds actually, dunno why..
Tapi lebih terpikat ngan kreativiti olahan satu lagu yang sebenarnya pasal cinta tapi diberi interpretasi dari perspektif yang bukan klishe..
Cam konsep Nur Kasih la - tetiba lak masuk kan..

Subhanallah feat. Mesut Kurtis - 3/5
Always Be There - 3/5
Memang sangat besh album ni!!
Thanx to beta for recommending.. {:1_151:}
Sume lagu layan..
Paling masyuk For the Rest of My Life ngan Barakallahu Lakuma..
Even tanpa kopiah and berpakaian kasual, and muzik pun kuat pengaruh r&b, tapi elemen nasyid still kuat..
Bole sampai msg dakwah tu..
Tapi kenapa kalo kat Mesia ni, kdg2 tu nama je grup nasyid, tapi hala tujuan tak jelas.. :re:
Tu belum lagi yg ex-nasyid yg even malu nak ngaku nyanyi nasyid sebelum ni..
For me, it's just another genre of music, which should be openly accepted like any other genres of music..
But of coz le, music kena bagus le kan..
