[Faith-talk] Concerning Hymns.

[Kirt]

Is it really all that different from the concept of a nasheed found in certain brands of Islam? I don't know if I'm spelling these names right but I have thoroughly enjoyed listening to English Islamic nasheeds sung by Muslims such as dawud wharnsby, Zane Bykha and Yusuf Islam. I quite frankly think some of this music can be very beneficial to people of any faith or, like me, people of no faith at all.
Best,
Kirt
