In summer 1996 Kamal boarded an Islamic school in Bolton called Al Jamia-Al Islamiyya. He studied a course to memorise the whole Noble Qur'an. During the month of Ramadan in November 2000 halfway through his course, sadly his father Haji Malkas Ali passed away. By the grace of Allah at the end of 2001 Kamal finished his course and became a qualified Hafiz. Immediately after, The Hyde Jamia Mosque offered him to lead the next Ramadan prayers. At the time Kamal was only 17 years old. Having been successful he was offered to teach children at the Islamic Centre based in the Mosque and also to lead and call people to prayers. In September 2002 Kamal boarded Jamia Al-Karam in Retford to study Arabic grammar. After a year he returned back to Hyde Jamia Mosque to carry on his duties there.
Knowing at an early age his talent in reciting the Qur’an and singing Nasheeds, he opened a Nasheed class where young children can enjoy learning about Islam by singing Nasheeds and also a separate Hafiz class so he can teach others to memorise the Noble Qur’an like himself.
During January 2005, Kamal took his mother to Saudi Arabia, to perform the largest Islamic pilgrimage - Hajj. Having been inspired from his Hajj experience, Kamal started to compose his own lyrics for his first album. This was launched in August 2005 and became a huge success gaining Kamal his recognition as a Nasheed Artist after performing at the 1st Global Peace and Unity Event organised by the Islam Channel.
In May 2006, due to heavy demand from his listeners all over the world, Kamal released his second Album ‘Illallah’. This Album immediately became a bigger success selling in all leading Islamic stores. Shortly after in August, Kamal took a big step in his life and got married.
Kamal has taken part in many performances throughout the U.K and has impressed the internationally known propagator of Islam, Dr Zakir Naik, whilst performing during his talks. He has also had the honour to perform alongside other Nasheed artists such as Yahya Hawa, Ahmed Bukhatir, Zain Bhikha and many more. He is now working closely with IQRA Promotions, Sheffield on many new projects including his third Album along with a Nasheed Video.
An Imam, a Hafiz, a Haji and a Nasheed artist. A remarkable talented dear brother: Kamal Uddin.

Sallallahu ala sayyidina sallallahu ala Rasoolillah
Sallallahu ala sayyidina sallallahu ala Imaamul ambiya
Laa ilaaha, laa ilaaha, laa ilaaha illallah x2
Most merciful are you King of all the kings
Indeed I am your slave created from the dust
a traveller in this world I shouldn't feel such lust
You blessed me with Islam to me this is a gift
I�ll store deep in my heart or it may leave me by drift
This world is not my home about this I must learn
it�s from you that I came and to you I shall return
At times when I'm in pain at times when I can't cope
when calling out your name my heart is filled with hope
When life for me is dark you sprinkle me with light
as long as I shall live always I will recite
Sallallahu ala sayyidina sallallahu ala Rasoolillah
Sallallahu ala sayyidina sallallahu ala Imaamul ambiya
Illallah, illallah, illallah, illallah x2
The song "Illallah" by Kamal Uddin is a beautiful expression of faith and gratitude towards Allah. The repeated phrase "Illallah" means "There is no God but Allah" and is one of the most fundamental beliefs in Islam. The first verse praises Allah and his prophets, specifically the Prophet Muhammad and the first prophet, Adam. The singer declares himself to be a humble servant of Allah and acknowledges his temporary existence in this world.
The second verse emphasizes the gift of Islam and the importance of holding onto it firmly. The singer recognizes the impermanence of this world and the need to focus on the afterlife. The chorus repeats the phrase "Illallah" again, emphasizing the central tenant of Islamic faith.
