  • Allahumma shali ala Muhammad,wan Nabiya Ba'dah!!

  • I love that man in the sake of allah :):):)

  • the only Peron that can judge you at the end of the day is Allah the most merciful & greatest.

  • I love this....beautiful...all good company!!! :) Later!

  • who cares what religion he is, he's happy, and doing what he loves, what else matters

  • Cat Stevens / Yusuf Islam shows and tells us we how to live and to love.

    We are all people on this planet. You believe in Allah, God, Manitou. You can spell it in everey language. But we all believe in God, whatever you want to call him. So let us live together like brother and sister.

    And listen to damnd good music

  • For those arguing whether the guitar is haram-I don't think it is as the guitar was introduced to europe via a group of muslims

  • umm its all down to his intentions and its what allah looks at right??? we cant judge at all

  • may allah bless him

  • the other 186,446 views are mine...

  • music is obviously haram, but i like listening to this

  • @chipsandkebabs

    It's not haram because it's not stated in the Qur'an that it is. Therefore, only Allah say what's haram or not.

    U can say that the prophet(PBUH) said we shouldn't do it, but even that doesn't make haram.

    Salam

  • @mo15hassan

    Walaikumsalam

    If that's what you want to believe then that's totally up to you, but just know that Proohet Sallalhualihiwassalam said 'From my people there will be those that consider illegal sex, wearing silk, drinking alcohol and use of musical instruments as legal'

  • The latest WikiLeaks revelation: 1 in 3 British Muslim students back killing for Islam and 40% want Sharia law so does Yusuf Islam

    muslims are spongers on the western Christian society go to a muslim country we do not want you here

  • @redshirtish

    Sharia law all the way muahaha

  • no justification music is totaly haraam.... u hav made a kufr statement read your shahada again.

  • @MrAshraffff if you say music is haraam what bt the song they sang when the prophet arrived at medina? The prophet didnot tell them not to sing it. What abt that? I am confused here.. Explain to me..

  • @SuperMaryam16 Don't quote me, but I'm pretty sure instruments other than drums(Don't know the reason) aren't allowed. So a nasheed(oral singing) with drums is legal, which is how the prophet (PBUH) was greeted

  • Masha Allah...May Allah Keep you away from any devils..Go Ahead Yusuf Islam and continue to give a nice picture about Islam and Peace.

  • People Please read the history before you start making statements, The reception of The Holy Prophet SAW was with people of Madina singing and using hand drums and other instruments. On occasions such as weddings and Eid The Holy Prophet SAW watched people perform displays including riders, sowrd men and people who sang Allah's praises, Why you show Islam as a Dark and Sad religion, I chellange you show me Quranic or Hadith that forbids music or songs.

  • The interesting thing about Islam is that only muslims spread the word that have no idea of their religion. It's easy to repeat lies over and over again, and one day everybody will believe those lies. Let's all pray for wisdom and knowledge of the truth. First, instruments are not haram, secondly, the holy qur'an is not a book of laws it's a book of proposals. Get a life brothers and sisters and stop critisizing each other.

  • Excellent song from Yusuf...

  • b, mashallah what a beautiful lovesong about the Beloved One, Sayyidina Muhammed saw

  • YOU DEDICATE A SONG TO THE PROPHET...ASTAGHFERULLAH...MAY ALLAH GIVE YOU IMAN, BROTHER YUSUF...! THE PROPHET FORBADE IN MANY HADEETHS THAT HEARING MUSIC IS OF SHAITAN AND IS FORBIDDEN AND DEDICATE SOMETHING WHICH HE SAID IS HARAAM TO HIM....! BROTHER, YUSUF, MAY ALLAH GIVE YOU KNOWLEDGE FOR MUSIC DOES NOT PLEASE OUR PROPHET. WHAT PLEASES HIM IS FOR US TO FOLLOW HIS EXAMPLES AND HIS EXAMPLE NEVER EVER WAS SINGING OR HEARING MUSIC. THE QURAAN CLEARLY SAYS THAT HEARING MUSIC IS HARAAM (FORBIDDEN).

  • @MARZOOGI Stupied guy. Just wake up!! Do you think prophet taught muslim to kill innocent muslims. If he didnot teaches taliban stuff then why talibans kills innocent muslim by their sucide bombing so back off . You are selfish and ill peoples. I am a muslim and i don't like you peoples. I hate your Islams. I think prophet never hurted an innocent man. shame on you stupied peoples.

  • @inamkarachiguy It is very clear from what you wrote who really is STUPID. This is our problem as Muslim, having fools like you among us. Islam is what the Quraan teaches and what the Prophet teaches, any other teaching is pure concoction (Bid'a) and Allah said in the Quraan that music (Lahuwol hadeeth) is haraam and the Prophet also said playing or hearing music is haraam aand the hadeeth is in Bukhari. People like you disgrace Islam, may Allah give you HIDAAYA....amen.

  • @MARZOOGI Why don't you go and live with Talibans because the kind of Islam they are presenting like yours. Killed, totured and hang own peoples in the middle of streets and then say that Islam is a peace ful religion. Man open your eyes and see the new Technological world. Tell me about one thing that what is the share of muslims in current technological development?? I think it is Zero %. You know why ?? because of peoples like you that stop Muslims to think.

  • @inamkarachiguy My reply to you is in the Holy Quraan, Sura 25, verse 63 and make sure you read this verse at least 10 times so you get it because surely it is talking about you and people like you.

  • @inamkarachiguy ameen brother

  • @MARZOOGI This is hear say. Quran is recited in Qirat and the best is that sooths your ears.

  • @2009Suhaila No, it is not like that. The Prophet said, he is not of us who reads the Quraan without singing it but the Prophet surely did not say sing it with a guitar, did he? You sing the Quraan with your voice in a nice singing manner that is nice to hear but this does not mean we bring about string instruments that the Prophet forbade and start singing like drunkards.

  • @MARZOOGI I apologize to you or to any one else If I have offended. While I agree with you 100%, at the sametime you will agree that there were no guitars then, secondly he is not reading Quraan, thirdly he has converted to Islam and that is his way of expression, music is fine art, this is his bread and living there jaaiz and finally he is not a drunkard, he singing his praise for something that is his most recent love.

  • @2009Suhaila Yes, there were no guitars but the Prophet summed it all up in the Bukhary Hadeeth that all kinds of music, alcohol, wearing silk for men and fornication are all forbidden and the Quraan testifies also that singing is forbidden. I know he is not reading the Quraan with the guitar, that would be blasphemy. How could you say music is fine when Allah and His prophet say it is unlawful? It seems you are speaking out of your intellect not what Allah and His prophet said and that is bad.

  • Comment removed

  • something is wrong with his lyrics...: "with one Allah, assabihi"....there is only one ilaha, and that is Allah.! SubahanaAllah.

  • "the lake of kafir is waiting for u"....very strong eeman.

  • @MrDanilorcastro

    The lake of Kawthar, actually.

  • there's no religion indeed other than ISLAM, evrything else are organized religion.

  • God sees hearts of all, and if you have meanness or hostile attitudes, no matter what you say or how you argue, yr not being pleasing to yr Creator. So all you mean-talking people WHOEVER you think you are, for your own sake you should hush and listen to something lovely like this song. People of any faith meet where hearts are sweet; bitterness in Islam Judah or Christianity is not holy.

  • his heart is golden :) his hearth know....

  • Bangladesh!

  • Nuggets of "peace" from the Prophet Mohammed's mouth:

    "Killing disbelievers is a small matter to us." (Tabari IX:69)

    "We are men who think that there is no shame in killing." (Ishaq 489)

  • God came to me in a vision and he showed me the true fate of all muslims; the fires of hell. God told me that islam is a test, a test to see if people will accept satan in the form of a god. All those who accept islam fail gods test and they receive horrible puishments of fire and acid in hell. Dont risk your soul by accepting islam, you will burn in satans deepest pits forever if you do.

  • @isIam4losers

    Will you stand before God and tell him you told people that ?How stupid you are .

  • @noorshama I dont have to tell him, he told me!

  • @isIam4losers

    Whether Muslims perish or Non-Muslims perish, we all return to God at the end.

    who will save us except the creator himself? Islam doesn't teach arrogance and God doesn't like arrogance. your belief and deeds are with you and ours are with us. we all will be taken account on the judgment day, our belief and deeds will either speak for us or speak against us, May God forgive those who believe and do good deeds!

  • @URnignorant No, you are wrong there! Some return to God, the rest go to satan and burn in hell. Thats exactly what happens to every muslim because they choose to worship satan.

  • @isIam4losers

    Ok, if that is what your belief tells you about Muslims, my earlier response is what Islam tells us, Muslims, about believing people, and we, Human Beings, are not in a position to judge who is going to where in hereafter. only God judges.

  • @URnignorant Yes, but islam is wrong. Thats why you are wrong. Its very simple to see, I dont know why you cant understand something so simple.

  • @isIam4losers

    whatever one believes a religion, he/she would follow that religion believing that it is right. it is not up to you tell which is wrong or which is right. even if you tell, who cares, we all believe and follow what we believe, if you don't understand this simple fact, then don't even bother to believe what you own believe.

  • @URnignorant I know that it is wrong to kill people, especially for a religion. Thats what makes islam wrong, but as a muslim you believe killing is good.

  • @isIam4losers

    Ok, then if somebody invade your land, kills your mother or father or your children, and drive you out of

    your land, I believe you would go and tell them it is OK.

  • @isIam4losers If I had stolen that land in the first place they would be right to kick me out! Dont be mad because the Jews won and beat you muslims! Dont be mad because the land you stole was returned to its rightful owners! Thats called justice.

  • @isIam4losers let's fuck jew... and fuck the agressor

  • @asyariyunus You want to fuck a jew?

  • mashallah great song.......spread the msg of peace.....

  • The Prophet Muhammad was a mass murderer.

    He helped behead 700 people in ONE DAY at the massacre of Qurayzah.

    Ibn Ishaq: "The apostle went out to the market of Medina and dug trenches in it. Then he sent for the men of the Qurayzah and struck off their heads in those trenches as they were brought out to him in batches."

    Yup, it was a hell of a good time. Hacking through neck bones, severed arteries, gurgled screams, blood spurting everywhere. In batches. All courtesy of the Prophet Muhammad.

  • @RealityCheckHero Well, if we're talking historical happenings; let's not forget what fun the Crusades were. Christians, Muslims; no religion is innocent, my friend. But all that should matter is that there are good PEOPLE in every religion. Personally, I'm an atheist, but that's down to personal belief and not hatred of an entire religion because of certain people therein.

  • @TheJinxrr

    The Crusades were a war of self-defense. The muslims desecrated Christian holy sites.

    You're also making a faulty comparison. The correct comparison is between Muhammad, the founder of Islam, and other holy men.

    Jesus never killed anyone.

    Buddha never killed anyone.

    Gandhi never killed anyone.

    Confucius never killed anyone.

    Nanak Dev never killed anyone.

    Martin Luther King never killed anyone.

    Muhammad was a mass murderer who hacked off the heads of 700 men in ONE DAY.

  • @RealityCheckHero , damn you i dare come and say that infront of the public eyes especially of a muslim i will be the first one to go for your blood

  • @kijini68 Hi, fakenboody ! What are you talk about. you know nothing except for other's bood !!

  • @RealityCheckHero Shame on you

  • @RealityCheckHero CHECK UR KNOWLEDGE BEFORE YOU PUT UP FALSE ALLEGATIONS.

  • Yusuf Islam said: "Salman Rushdie must be killed. The Q'uran makes it clear - if someone defames the prophet, then he must die."

    (Source: Philadelphia Inquirer, February 24, 1989, p.5A)

    Peace my ass. Muslims are murderous pigs.

    I wipe the shit off my dog's ass with your prophet.

  • Lets love one another, no point of arguing or being rude. The path is very clear, the path is peace. If you feel you not in peace within then try to seek peace from the higher ALLAH.

  • Long live Islam - get an education haters

  • look in the mirror, who is the hater

  • The backing singers and drummer seem to let Yusuf down on this set.

    ...I wonder if they were 'imposed' on him at short notice with no time to practice.

    A shame because the song is really nice otherwise.

  • let me tell u somethin'... when u're facing the death... u'll remember one question... "will God save me? but how?"...

    peace upon us...

  • Comment removed

  • @ShadySidebury ; he was talking about how he followed the wind of his soul !!and he said that this wind is like "ROUH" which means spirit ... i do respect this guy a lot , simply he has followed the truth , he could understand that this crazy world we are living now ,it`s just illusion !! happy for him being in the righ path , !!

  • With all due respect, I cannot understand what Yusuf says at the beginning after "this is in dedication to the Prophet (peace be upon him)- my parenthesis- and would like to, so if anybody could translate the first bits of Arabic, I'd be most grateful...I do not speak it, so...you would have my eternal gratitude, for what that's worth.

  • This is a beautiful song from a lovely man. No need to argue and debate the religion Yusuf belongs to. It's a nice song, written by someone with a belief. Enjoy everyone!

  • long life Islam

  • He is sooo gorgeous

  • Yusuf islam is serenading the temperaments of the Arabs....Arabs are the best people i had experiencing meeting, except few.........I pray that the Tribal arab muslims will wake up on this , that Americans are not the enemy but the Zionist jews...lying their way to hearts of good Americans... WAKE UP DEAR BROTHERS IN ADAM AND EVE...

  • @ malsifraud

    I really doubt that you read the quran and even if you can understand old arabic you would never understand the quran, like most of the people btw.

    But besides that, U have the right to say whatever you want. The question is, what is your excuse for waisting your time on this site ? I know why I'm visiting this site. Because I like listening to this - surely not the best he made - song of Yusuf. I feel very sorry for you when I think about your life. I wish you peace in your heart

  • Well, i can understand what i read.

    Mulsims must understand something else, because you cannot accept that the quran is primitive. So you invent meanings that never had been written.

    If you dont like what you see, so then burn your little bullshit quran and write something better!

  • Your postings proof that you don't understand anything and of course not what you read. Do you really read ?

  • Thank you for the compliment!

    It is verry nice to have a primitive ape telling me that!

    It is an honour to be called that way by a mulsim!!

  • the problem is the words "with one Allah"........some problem with it ...aLLAH IS HIS NAME ABSOLUTE, IT should be "with one Ilaha"....

  • @ Reem1275

    Deleting your comment shows me that you are a little bastard!!

    Islam condemms all christians and jews as a hole, read it in Quran!!!!, therefore i have the right (everyone has) to say that all muslims are primitive stupid Terrorists!!!! Bombs everywhere!!!

    You resolve your problems killing anyone in your way!!!!!

    Look at all the people killed in Afghanistan Iraq!! Most by muslim suicide bombers!!!!

    Collateral damage!! You would kill your grandmother if it suits you!!

    Assholes!!

  • us army killed over 1.5 million only in iraq. open your eye/mind before commending

  • How come you never challenged saddam hussein.

    He killed at least 1/4 of a million and no muslim ever got upset!!

    You are a little hypocrit, falsifying history!

    That isa all you can do! Look at the quran: best example of falsifying history!!!

  • I am from Iraq >> The most Bomb there coused by American >> u dont know what happen there ..dont tooking any thinks that u dont know about it ! ! please there are many thinks that you do not know.

  • All you say is stupid muslim babble. Your religous leader told you that the americans are putting roadside bombs and you believe it. You believe everything you are told, like a primitive muslim believe in bullshit quran.

    All roadside or carbombs were put by muslims in order to kill other muslims, shiites or sunnites or whatever! Americans are not cowards wo need to lie.

    Saddam killed more than 100'000 muslims and nobody cared!!! The rest were killed by sneaky cowardly primitive muslims

  • I am sorry but you are probably stupid!!

    I dont have any religous leader that tells me anything!!

    I can read myself and i dont have *dont want to see" glasses before my eyes!

    So come up with something intelligent if you want to criticize me!

    If you beleive in relöogion, then you are a primitive bastard, especially if you believe in Quran and the hatiths!

    These teachings are made for monkeys, not for humans!!

    Or maybe for primitive desert dwellers!!

  • go afghanistan and Iraq first to know the truth ,,,

    then came here and whrite what u saw there .

  • One REAL BIG disappointment! Awful "music".. pure mediocrity at best.......Not sure who he is writing this music for... but from a huge fan... I think his best music was left behind... 35 yrs ago! ....a sad end to a brilliant talent..???

  • How com it is sad: If you become a Mulsim, your imagination and brilliance fades away! That is like a natural law!

    Brain washed people are not capable of doing anything briliant!

  • It's obvious who has been brainwashed ... if there was a brain before ...

  • this could be his worst song ever,,,

  • is this a modern song ?cause me going to audition for his tour

  • Comment removed

  • may allah always guide and protect you just as he protected the prophet yousof , i am not a one who understand music much but you have a great in your voice ,

  • Comment removed

  • he inspires me every time i hear him

  • МашАллах!!! Замечательный Юсуф Ислам, Желаю ему довольствия Аллаха!!!

  • love his song....Allah bless u sir...

  • great artist, his old days amazing tho, his voice is still unreal to this day....

    his choice of faith.. well ill respect anyones choice what ever they believe, dont bother me one bit.

    turned his back on fame, and his unreal gift for what he believed.

    what waist wish he stuck with it, today he would be a great icon, like i said all to there own.

    some people belive anything, even the most talented.

  • you know even "the most talented" have hearts at the end. Yusuf Islam's heart found what fame couldn't give him. Fulfillment and perfection.

  • really like the comment . it is so true.

  • Thank you.

  • God bless you.

  • I grew up with Cats Music...Great musician..

  • LOVE this person, bless him

  • he is a legend..

  • PEACE AND LOVE

  • ¡PEACE TRAIN!!

  • O Allah bless his voice and make him a guide to peace ameen

  • is he singing in arabic?

  • Just in the chorous, these are blessings for the prophet : )

  • Of course he's a terrorist, Rokker, because he's a muslim, right? No offense, but when I read ignorant comments like that the first thing I think is that that person is nothing more than a narrow-minded bigot! If you had any interest in the truth, you would do your homework about the Yusuf/Rushdie controversy! According to Islam, blasphemy is a capital offense: punishable by death! Yusuf made a mistake, in his wording, and he has acknowledged that!

  • I'll second that Dylanfanh61, John Lennon use to say "time wound all heals".

    Peace & Love 2U Brother

    RS45

  • You narrow minded clowns.

  • Opinions are like assholes ... everybody's got one ... and that was yours. Next time read the comments more closely !!!

    Love and Peace

    RS45

  • You're putting too much emphasis on a small detail like that. I really think you did much more harm by being abrasive than the good you gained

  • you are sick

  • what's your point?

    I typed Muhammad saw

    s = Salallahu

    a = alayhi

    w = wa salaam

    and as a muslim I know that

    sheezz I really have no idea what you are talking about

    >:)

  • He is so beautiful

    inside and outside

    may Allah bless you yusuf

    thanks for posting this

  • Allah Most High says whilst describing the attributes of the servants of the Most Compassionate (ibad al-Rahman):

    Those who witness no falsehood, and if they pass by futility, they pass by it with honourable avoidance (Surah al-Furqan, V. 72).

    Imam Abu Bakr al-Jassas relates from Sayyiduna Imam Abu Hanifah (Allah be pleased with him) that the meaning of falsehood (zur) is music & song

  • Apostate!

    You are!

    Infidel I name you!

    Your words have no power here nor anywhere, you will scream the same apostasy from the fire not knowing you have been judged by the most high and merciful!

  • Allah Most High said to Shaytan:

    Lead to destruction those whom you can among them with your (seductive) voice (Surah al-Isra, V.64).

    One of the great exegete, Mujahid (Allah have mercy on him) interpreted the word voice (sawt) by music, singing, dancing and idle things. (Ruh al-Maani, 15/111).

    Imam Suyuti (Allah have mercy on him) quoted Mujahid as saying: Voice (in this verse) is sin

  • and btw, islam forbid songs and singing this is a sin in the quran, go read your quran :) muhamed said that singing is a sin and a work done by the devil. before answering or replying , GO READ THE QURAN OR ASK A SHEIKH. god bless u all, and may jesus give you the peace you need in your heart.

  • the Quran never said singing was a sin or songs. You try reading. The prophet (pbbh) even asked people to sing on some occasions. We do have Jesus (pbbh) in our hearts just as a prophet. Have a grate day.

  • haha, you just made me laugh. imagine if someone said jesus rode a motorcycle. What you said is just as dumb, Singing and poetry is unanimously agreed by all muslim scholars. But some debate the extent it can be used, and certain instruments. Jesus is in every muslims heart they way it should be. Sad that you still follow a book that was written by people who didnt even see jesus!

  • he is singing: salli ala sayidina al habib >> pray to our beloved master mouhamed and peace be on him , he is singing in arabic in the beginning

  • what is this ? a muslim singing to somone or something?

  • don't you listen to what he said?

    "this is in dedication to the prophet sallahlahu alaihi wasalam"

    isn't that very clear enough?

    or the arabic words confused you?

    he dedicate this song for his prophet Muhammad saw, as a token of his love

  • Anyone who thinks this song is awful is not actually listening. Anything Yusuf sings is beautiful probably because it's his inner beauty coming through the words that leave his lips. Salam.

  • Couldnt say it in a better way.:)

  • this song is beautiful

  • Amazing man, doing soo much good. :)

  • From what we know now Yusuf was one of the very few 60s pop & rock stars that has really lived the spirit of his generation. Many talented stars like Jim Morrison, Jimmy Hendrixs, or Janice Joplin died in the attempt to live by their beliefs; most were absorbed by the system they tried to challenge. Yusuf transcended he really made it through the narrow path ¡AWESOME!

  • I love it when he says, " and this is in didcation to the prophet sallahlahu alaihe wasalam". I love it.

  • why  when i hear this song my eyes still wet

  • I love it .Allah bless you .

  • Mashallah brother Yusuf ^^

    A very peaceful song.

    Peace, Right from the heart.

    He really is a real muslim,

    and a good example.

    May Allah reward him with Jannat Al firdous

    (paradise)

    Wa aleikum selaam Werahmatullah

    (Ignore my nickname its a old account^^)

  • with Yusef Islam....maybe there is hope for humanity after all!!

  • this song is a classic!

  • Lovely ..peace and love to all.

  • can anybody tell me where to download this song?

  • Definitely the best Arabic song I have ever heard.
