RASHID BHIKHA

Rashid Bhikha Showreel

"Salvation" focuses on the age-old adage that true happiness isn't found in material things but rather on looking inward and reconnecting with Allah (SWT). We chase these illusions, thinking they'll fill the void in our hearts and minds. But true fulfilment comes when we turn our hearts towards Allah (SWT), focus on remembering Him in this life and preparing for the next, that's when we find true peace and ultimately, salvation. The video for Salvation takes one on a spectacular journey of moments that symbolise these fleeting distractions. Using digital mastery, the video is a fluid synergy of place, sound and movement where nothing remains stagnant and the chasing can sometimes lead to innocuous findings – just like the things we chase in this world. Lyrics Salvation feat. Muslim Belal (Ashley Belal Chin) Growing up where I’m from, you have this social housing mentality council estate mentality you don’t see a world outside your world, and this is damaging. I learnt so much from travelling. I changed so much after travelling, opened my mind, changed my character. You should live like the birds, I live like a traveller I was sitting on my own In my beautiful home Lots of people all around but I felt so alone I thought I had everything All the dreams that I had dreamed But the cleansing of a heart and soul Don’t come with material things So I went to Istanbul To the hammam of the sultan The purest water they brought in To wash away my sins But before the clay had dried My guilt had multiplied And despite how hard they tried I felt worse than when I walked in Oh my Lord I need Salvation Just a piece of peace and a bit of happiness My minds going crazy and I feel so lost Cos I can’t get through to you So I flew to Dubai Everything that money can buy But faith ain’t such a fickle thing That glitters like gold outside So I went to the USA They say the land of the free and the brave But freedom don’t mean anything When your heart ain’t free within Oh my Lord I need Salvation Just a piece of peace and a bit of happiness My minds going crazy and I feel so lost Cos I can’t get through to you I thought maybe Asia To beautiful Malaysia The people there were oh so nice I thought maybe I could stay here But I needed some rest So I went to Budapest I ate and ate cos I was hungry But my soul was still restless Oh my Lord I need Salvation Just a piece of peace and a bit of happiness My minds going crazy and I feel so lost Cos I can’t get through to you I thought I’d go back to my roots Put on those village boots To a small town deep in India Where my great grandparents stood I looked for someone I knew Something for me to do They said you look familiar son But there’s nothing here for you Oh my Lord I need Salvation Just a piece of peace and a bit of happiness My minds going crazy and I feel so lost Cos I can’t get through to You From London to Egypt Cairo, got my weapon everywhere that I go Was a gun that could take away life, now it’s on my tongue, this Quran I recite I had breakfast in Casablanca, now I’m back on this road again like a journeyman, on this horse I ride, until the day my journey ends I’m just a traveller, traveller, traveller on these lands Allah blessed me in so many ways, none of this was ever in my plans Cos I was a young boy, young boy, walking a lonely road from street to street, they say my life is my journey home Oh my Lord I found Salvation A piece of peace and so much happiness My mind was crazy and I felt so lost But now I’m close to you So back to my homeland Back to where it all began Same old faces and same old places But I felt a change at hand From Panama to Japan New Zealand to Vietnam He’s closer than your own jugular vein Just call out Allah’s name Where do you go to find God It actually ain’t that hard He’s always with you, wherever you are Just remember Him in your heart Oh my Lord I found Salvation A piece of peace and so much happiness My mind was crazy and I felt so lost But now i’m close to you Trinkets and clothes and gold treasure troves They don’t mean nothing if your heart stays closed Only remembering brings you close, to Him Remember Trinkets and clothes and gold treasure troves They don’t mean nothing if your heart stays closed Only remembering brings you close, to Him Trinkets and clothes and gold treasure troves They don’t mean nothing if your heart stays closed Only remembering brings you close, to Him Brings you close to Him Subscribe to YouTube: /zainbhikhaofficial Follow on Instagram: www.instagram.com/zainbhikhaofficial Like on Facebook: www.facebook.com/zainbhikhaofficial Follow on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@zainbhikhaofficial © 2024 ZAIN BHIKHA STUDIOS

Getting knocked down by challenges are part of life. But getting up again is a choice! “Get Up Again” was originally launched as part of the “Cotton Candy Sky” album in 2018 Its a song that has deep meaning for me so it was important to represent struggles using real life stories of challenge and triumph, that are featured throughout the video.

Know that there’s a God, that He allows hardship To teach how to see with his guidance Why does a muscle fiber have to break down Before it grew stronger it needed that trial Why does the spirit breathed into a womb Require a mother wounded, before the miracle of life blooms So know a light looms at the end of the tunnel If we don't stop digging, got to see it all the way through Deep in the dirt where we find jewels And pressure makes gold when the fire cools See the signs, you are more than what is hurting you Ya Allah! Let us rise to the occasion Strive to be amazing Our job is to get up, then God does the changing So through affliction, when it's burning It's hurting, it's aching Use it as your motivation And know for sinners to succeed we need purification Chorus Every one of us has a journey And the hard times is the story When you push through What you been through Come out on the other side brand new I know I make it sound easy But He's always there believe me When you keep going the extra mile Expect God to make it worth your while And turn your frown into a smile And you don't even know how How you made it I wouldn't trade it For anything in the world baby. I know it's scary But everything is temporary So you don't have to worry No you don't have to worry Chorus You kicked down to the ground and you hurt and all hope is gone Never ever give up, No you can't Dust yourself off and Get Up Again Cos when the time comes and you standing before your Lord That's the only time that your truly win Cos you never gave up, never gave in So Get Up Again Trust in God's Plan Get up and try again Get up until you win Get up until the end Copyright Zain Bhikha Studios NPC (South Africa) 2022 #getupagain #islamicvideo #nasheed
