ode in remembrance of shaykh abdul qadir

the ode of imam abdullah al hadad

the ode of shaykh abdul qadir

Naat Medley by Qari Zahid Rafique

Give life to your heart with the remembrance of Allah’s Name.  “The likeness of he who remembers Allah and he who does not remember Allah is like the living and the dead,” said the Noble Prophet peace be upon him.  The dhikr includes group Quranic recitation in the ancient ‘tahazzabt’ style, supplicating by the 99 Names, various salawat upon the Prophet peace be upon him, qasidas (poems of praise sung in melodious voice), and adhkar from the Book and the Sunna.

After working on this selection of songs for six and a half years, I'm incredibly excited and grateful to be able to share them with you.  This album reflects a significant growth for me, as a singer and songwriter.  Combining my lyrics with those of my teachers, and drawing on diverse musical genres from Jazz, Blues and Hard Rock, to Arabic, Indian, Turkish and East African music, I have pushed myself way out of my comfort zone into unfamiliar genres and completely new territory as an artist.  I hope you enjoy listening to them even more than I did composing them, arranging them, and recording them.

#BurdaBlues -- Nader Khan​ & #TheBlacksmiths
The Keighley Munshids​ are keenly involved in celebrating and promoting #TheMainstay -- the first ever English translation of one of the most celebrated commentaries on the Qasida Burda. They've been inviting and encouraging artists around the world to submit their renditions of a few verses from The Burda. 

I was honoured to be a recipient of one such invite. Tonight, The Blacksmiths were over at my place for our weekly practice session. So, we decided to shoot a brief video of a rendition of the first chapter of the Burda that we've been working on for the next album. Here's a sneak peak.

The opening words in English are from an epic poem that my dear friend Amir Sulaiman​ is composing on The Prophet (ﷺ).

BurdaBlues -- A sneak-peak from Nader Khan​ & TheBlacksmiths

Muhammad lives, even in his grave
Muhammad lives, Nabi Muhammad
Muhammad gives, even in his death
more than he gave during his life

Salla Alllah ala Muhammad, salla Allah alaih was-sallam
Salla Alllah ala Muhammad, salla Allah alaih was-sallam

Moonlight Episode 1- enganging with positivity
