The song "La Illaha Illa Allah" by Hamid El Kasri is a traditional Moroccan Gnawa song that celebrates the Sufi belief in the oneness of God. The repeated statement of "la illaha illa Allah" ("there is no god but God") emphasizes the monotheistic nature of Islam and acknowledges the existence of a higher power beyond human control. The song also pays tribute to important figures in Islam, including the Prophet Muhammad and the Sultans or "Choraafa" who have upheld Islamic values.
Throughout the song, the performer expresses a deep sense of devotion and gratitude towards God, while also acknowledging their own imperfections and limitations as a human being. The struggle to reconcile faith and personal shortcomings is a common theme in Sufi music, and the emotive nature of Kasri's vocals reinforces the sense of heartfelt sincerity in the lyrics. Overall, "La Illaha Illa Allah" is a powerful expression of faith and a celebration of the spiritual unity that exists through the oneness of God.
