This review is from: Prayers of the Last Prophet (Audio CD)

This is a truly wonderful CD for both Muslims and those interested in Islam. As a new Muslim, I especially appreciated the Quranic recitation--as I could listen to it and work on my pronunciation. Ten different (I think) surahs are recited including Surah Al-Fatihah, al-Baqarah, al-Imran, al-Shuara, al-Takathur, al-Furqan, and al Ahzab. It also includes lots of different prayers including Istikhara, prayers before eating, etc.

Yusuf Islam (Cat Stevens--think Wild World and Harold & Maude) does the narration, reading of the translation, as well as a few songs. The Quranic recitation is done by Sheikh Mahmoud Khalil Alhousari.

The songs are great! (Love to see an album of simply Islamic songs!) My favorite is "If You Ask Me."

One criticism--I wish the CD-booklet included the transliteration (Arabic) and English for all of the different prayers.

If you're just starting to explore Islam--there are many great websites out there. I also highly recommend the book "Daughters of Another Path."

This review is from: Prayers of the Last Prophet (Audio CD)

Anything less for a truely gifted man? Masha Allah. Extremely beautifully, and entertaining for the heart. All songs are accompanied by children, or other heartfelt men who sing soley for Allah. There are no musical instruments, only the lovely voices.

The dua's are a tremendous blessing, both with a clear, Arabic voice, for easy memorization, and with Sidi Yusef's voice serving for the English translation. Definatley worth memorizing for all occasions.

The Quran is beautiful said in both the Arabic and English language. The CD offers you the ability to record what you would like, so you can make a complete tape of songs, or dua. Make the PERFECT gift, or wonderful for any traffic time, spending time with Allah and those who are lovers are Allah, what a benifit!

5.0 out of 5 stars A collection of the Prophet's prayers, December 12, 2003

This review is from: Prayers of the Last Prophet (Audio CD)

Prayers of the Last Prophet is a very useful collection of some of the prophet Muhammed's, peace be upon him, daily prayers.

The most notable prayers he would recite during the morning hours, afternoon hours, evening time and before sleep. Yusuf Islam presents these prayers in English and they are translated in Arabic.

I recommend this CD to all Muslims as well as non-Muslims who want to learn about Islam and the humbleness and piety of the last messenger to humanity who was granted the last message from God almighty, peace be upon Muhammed.

I highly suggest you obtain a copy of "Life of the Last Prophet" along with this one.
