Lyrics Heart of a Muslim - Zain Bhikha, Yusuf Islam

Heart of a Muslim

Looking up at the sky
Searching for Allah most High
He rejected the way of worshipping Gods of clay
Prophet Ibrahim knew that Allah was near
And that the heart of a Muslim is sincere
Under the hot burning sun, he declared God is one
Though with stones on his chest
His Imaan would not rest
The Muadhin knew that right would conquer wrong
And the heart of a Muslim must be strong
It’s the heart of a Muslim through
The guidance of Islam
That makes you fair and kind and
Helpful to your fellow man
So living as a Muslim means that
You must play a part
Allah looks not at how you look
But what is in your heart
In our poor meager state, little food on our plate
Mother said she was glad
Always sharing what we had
When I asked how can we share what’s not enough
She said the heart of a Muslim’s filled with love
He said its time you should know
You will learn as you grow
That some people around will do what’s bad to bring you down
Father said to be a star that’s shining bright
For the heart of a Muslim does what’s right
It’s the heart of a Muslim through
The guidance of Islam
That makes you fair and kind and
Helpful to your fellow man
So living as a Muslim means that
You must play a part
Allah looks not at how you look
But what is in your heart
So whatever you, make sure your words are true
Honesty is the best, because life is a test
Even if it hurts so much you want to cry
For the heart of a Muslim does not lie
It’s the heart of a Muslim through
The guidance of Islam
That makes you fair and kind and
Helpful to your fellow man
So living as a Muslim means that
You must play a part
Allah looks not at how you look
But what is in your heart
