I have just heard the Adhan by Yusuf Islam (http://www.cs.uwaterloo.ca/~hzarrabi/praytime/audio/adhan/Sunni/Yusuf%20Islam.mp3) and it is beautiful and have just listened to Yusuf's 'If You Ask Me (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Wkul6nQNUo)', amazing. Another version here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q44AE8YdFzI) and here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbRyVNOt0II).

Does anyone know what album of his this is off?

"If you ask me who my God is
On whose name i call
If you ask me, who my God is
He is the God of us all
Allah, the Merciful"

Yusuf's 'If You Ask Me (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Wkul6nQNUo)', amazing.

Quite nice, actually. I liked it.

Well, I guess Yusuf Islam comes from that industry with a 'glorious' past, so he has what it takes to produce great works.

Well... that's bad news. which is why we need Salafi nasheed artists who can show the world how to do it in a halal way ;)

I think its ok and agree with Yusuf Islam when he talks about this:

MUST READ: Music: A Question of Faith or Da'wah (http://www.mountainoflight.co.uk/PDF/music_question_faith.pdf) by Yusuf Islam

"...there wasn’t anything in the Qur’an directly mentioning music; it didn’t say music was forbidden." (http://www.mountainoflight.co.uk/talks_journey_4.html)
