Yet to me you were always so close
I wandered lost in the dark
I closed my eyes toward the signs
You put in my way
I walked everyday
further and further away from you
Ooooo Allah, you brought me home
I thank you with every breath I take
ุงูุญู ุฏ ููู ุงูุญู ุฏ ููู
All praises to Allah
I never thought about
All the things you have given to me
I never thanked you once
I was too proud
to see the truth
And prostrate to you
Until I took the first step
And that's when you opened the doors for me
Now Allah, I realized what I was missing
By being far from you

All praises to Allah
Allah, I wanna thank you
I wanna thank you for all the things that you've done
You've done for me through all my years I've been lost
You guided me from all the ways that were wrong
And did you give me hope
O Allah, I wanna thank you
I wanna thank you for all the things that you've done
You've done for me through all my years I've been lost
You guided me from all the ways that were wrong
I wanna thank you for bringing me home

Thank You Allah

The lyrics of Maher Zain's song "Thank You Allah" are a powerful expression of gratitude towards God for His guidance and love. The singer reflects on his journey towards faith, acknowledging that he was once lost and wandering in the darkness. However, even though he was far from God, he always felt that God was close to him, placing signs along his path to guide him.
The singer recognizes that he never fully appreciated all the blessings God had bestowed upon him, and he was too proud to admit his mistakes and seek forgiveness. But then he took the first step towards God, and everything changed. God opened the doors for him and helped him see the truth. The singer now realizes what he was missing by being far from God, and he expresses his heartfelt thanks for bringing him home.
The song's chorus of "Alhamdulillah" (which means "praise be to God") is an expression of gratitude and reverence towards God. The lyrics remind listeners of the importance of acknowledging and appreciating all the ways in which God has blessed our lives. The song is a touching tribute to God's love and mercy, and a reminder to us all to be thankful for the many blessings in our lives.

What is the Muslim code of conduct within society?
โขQuran 5:8 states: โO you who have believed, be persistently standing firm for Allah, witnesses in justice, and do not let the hatred of a people prevent you from being just. Be just; that is nearer to righteousness. And fear Allah; indeed, Allah is Acquainted with what you do.โ
โขQuran 4:86 states: And when you are greeted with a greeting, greet [in return] with one better than it or [at least] return it [in a like manner]. Indeed, Allah is ever, over all things, an Accountant.
โขQuran 5:45 states: (And we have ordained for them therein a life for a life, an eye for an eye, a nose for a nose, an ear for an ear, a tooth for a tooth, and for wounds legal retribution. But whoever GIVES UP HIS RIGHT as charity, it is an expiation for him. And whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed - then it is those who are the wrongdoers."
โขQuran 42:40 states Almighty said: (And the retribution for an evil act is an evil one like it, but whoever pardons and makes reconciliation - his reward is [due] from Allah. Indeed, He does not like wrongdoers).
โขFollowers are required to control anger and ENCOURAGES THEM not to demand retribution. Quran 3:134 states: Almighty said: (Who spend [in the cause of Allah] during ease and hardship and who restrain anger and who pardon the people - and Allah loves the doers of good;).ย ย ย
โขQuran 60:08 states: Allah does not forbid you from dealing justly and kindly with those who do not fight or expel you out of your homes on account of your faith. Verily Allah loves those who deal in equity.
โขQuran 41:34 And not equal are the good deed and the bad. Repel [evil] by that [deed] which is better; and thereupon the one whom between you and him is enmity [will become] as though he was a devoted friend.
โขQuran 5:32 states: Because of that, We decreed upon the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption [done] in the land - it is as if he had slain mankind entirely. And whoever saves one - it is as if he had saved mankind entirely. And our messengers had certainly come to them with clear proofs. Then indeed many of them, [even] after that, throughout the land, were transgressors.
โขQuran 4:36 states: โWorship Allah and associate nothing with Him, and to parents excel in good work, and to relatives, orphans, the needy, the near neighbor, the neighbor farther away, the companion at your side (i.e. co-worker), the traveler, and those whom your right hands (i.e. treating slaves with patience and utmost mercy) possess. Indeed, Allah does not like those who are self-deluding and boastful.โ
Note: all verses in Quran related to killing is actually fighting face to face in the battle-field. Please donโt take them out of context. Quran encourages Muslim Nations to sign peace treaties (UN Treaty). โAnd if they incline to peace, then incline to it [also] and rely upon Allah. Indeed, it is He who is the Hearing, the Knowing.โ Quran 8:61
