Overall Meaning

The song "Habibi" by Leslie and Amar is a tribute to the Prophet Muhammad. The lyrics express the deep love and admiration for the Prophet by commemorating his life and teaching. The opening lines of the song, "Yas'ad fu'adi kullama Dzikral habibi tarannama" mean “My heart leaps every time I remember the mention of the beloved.” This signifies the strong emotional connection the singer holds with the Prophet.

The lyrics go on to describe the Prophet Muhammad as the "Nabbiyyu robbil aalamiin", which translates to "The Prophet of the worlds". The lines “Lil haqi shooro mu'allima” (Teaching the truth) and “KANNURI FII DZUN HIDZH-DZHOLAm” (He illuminated a world covered in darkness) highlight the Prophet's role as a teacher and guide for humanity. The chorus "DZAKAL LADZII ROBBUL 'ULAA SHOLLA 'ALAIHI WASSALAMA" is a statement of praise for the Prophet from God.

The song "Habibi" is not only a tribute to the Prophet, but it is also a call for unity among Muslims. The words, "LI MUHAMMADDIN KHULQUN 'AADZIM WA BI HUBBI MALLA YAHIIM" (for Muhammad, whose character is great, and for the love of Allah) inspire Muslims to uphold the excellent moral character of the Prophet and strive to be like him.
