The Best Nasheed Collection of the World description

A nasheed (Arabic: singular نشيد nashīd, plural أناشيد anāshīd, meaning: "chants"; also nasyid in Malaysia and Indonesia, and neşid in Turkey) is a work of vocal music that is either sung acappella or accompanied by percussion instruments such as the daf. In general, Islamic anasheed do not contain lamellaphone instruments, string instruments, or wind and brass instruments, although digital remastering - either to mimic percussion instruments or create overtones - is permitted. This is because many Muslim scholars state that Islam prohibits the use of musical instruments except for some basic percussion.
