With over two decades of recordings under his belt, singer-songwriter Zain Bhikha is one of the most well-respected exponents of the nasheed. He’s also among the first to popularise contemporary English-language readings of Islamic music. Bhikha leads a chorus of voices in silky a cappella harmonies accompanied by mesmerising percussion. On the album Allah Knows, featuring acclaimed Islamic artists like Dawud Wharnsby Ali, he touches particularly on themes vital to young people. Drawing on soul and rap, Bhikha speaks with a stirring sincerity to Muslims of all ages around the world.
