A nasheed by Native Deen called 'Pray Before...' from the album 'Not Afraid to Stand Alone'

These are the lyrics
Cause it can happen to you
You working there hard at your grind
But now its about that time
But yo you got deadlines to make
And your boss is
Riding your back so you make them dates
And now you thinking about
Your projects, your deadlines,
The corporate ladder climb,
Tryin make your light shine
Your minds in outer space
And far as your salat you wait
Wait, wait
The prayers bout to leave you son
But now your troubles just begun
Before you hit the bar of the space
You hold your chest
Cause now it starts to palpitate
You look to your officemate
Saying this aint the only thing
With less time left
Losing your breath
Now your rushing to the stairs
Your tripping and you dont know where
Before you hit the lobby door,
You hit the lobby floor
Lights out heart stopping aint breathing No more
But at my best guess, This akh has been blessed
Cause to his distress Comes an hijabi EMS
With the paddles in the air Vifib type of gear
With her partner standing near, Shes yelling out clear
Brought em back from flat lining
He said the whole scene was like Dhikr bead remindin
He says sister please, We best get a move on For they call the adhan
I gotta pray before Im prayed on
Chorus

I got so many excuses that I use when the athans made
Im telling lies dont even hesitate
I tell the people Ive already prayed
I got this thing I gotta do and Im already late
Dont lecture me dont want no fitnah or drama
I just need to get out before they make the iqamaPEACE
Im cruising down the avenue the boulevard
All of a sudden, Oh my God
No fender bender I was critically injured
In the hospital bed my family thought I was deadMAN
I never though itd happen to me
But I can tell you I was happy to see
All of my boys coming in the emergency room taking a knee
And every single one was praying for me
Eventually I made it through. Al-hamdu-lilah
I thank Allah. A second chance to make salah
Chorus

When it comes to not praying the best, we be notorious
Not focused on our Lord most glorious
A reminder to our self is what the story was
Just talking the talk, that really worries us,
We get caught up in this fleeting world like Morpheus
Making money or getting the Bachalorrious
We keep forgetting that prayer, it makes us victorious
both In this world and the next life, He's rewarding us,
Furious, cause I know I can do better
Recording us, at every show in any weather..
And warning us, when the souls are brought together
The first thing checked are my prayers on the regular
Wake up! never waste this breath
Everybody every soul will get a taste of death
Pray like its your last prayer cause that date is set
And that your going straight to heaven, NEVER make that bet

  • niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

    

  • Dear Bros, Plz sing the raps without instruments. Plz use only May Allah bless you and forgive you all your sins.. InshaAllah..

  • I personally think the background music is not allowed.. but only Allah is the true Judge.. But the message is there, hats off for that. It would be as beautiful,should the music be removed in the background.. Sorry to offend any brother or sister.. this is what I feel.

  • @man4juara her you go buddy :) قال تعالى : {وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَن يَشْتَرِي لَهْوَ الْحَدِيثِ لِيُضِلَّ عَن سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ وَيَتَّخِذَهَا هُزُوًا أُولَئِكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مُّهِينٌ}

    وجاء في البخاري رضي الله عنه : أن الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم قال : ليكونن من أمتي أقوام

    يستحلون الحِر والحرير والخمر والمعازف .

  • Thumbs up if u want to request native deen to sing another rap without Music in the background! JUST ONE!

  • @Sultik09 Is there any evidence that caused u to say this is haram?

  • Mashallah - love it!

  • @Sultik09 Its ok as long the Meaning is there, its considered as Naseed like Raihan and etc
