Maher Zain


Maher Zain, a name that recently got very famous and popular in Malaysia. I was a fan of him before the phenomenon of him exploded. Around April 2010 i started to listen to his album Thank You Allah. At that time i didn't expected such supports from Malaysian's fans. But then when the news about his concert will be held in Malaysia, that was the time when i really heard his name on news, radios and such. Even more he even came to IIUM Gombak for a special performance during the Palestine concert specially organized for the CONVEST10. Anyway, i really like the whole album and of course my favourite although it's hard to choose but i really like Always Be There, Hold My Hand,Thank You Allah and The Choosen One.
