Not a single person I know even knows that the man existed! The entire album that the song is from is full of protest songs. Unfortunately, protest songs are what ruined this man's musical career, as his audience preferred to hear the old Browne who sung of the poetic complications in relationships one has with friends, family, home, land, lover... you get the point. Anyway, next time I see you, inshallah, I'll be sure to bring this up.

I remember you showing us a video with this song at TIC 2006 and it affected me then as it does now...Goosebumps and anger. The song is amazing and after reviewing the TIC 2006 version of the video, I felt the new video version with this song hits a bit closer to home due to us actually living the images in our daily lives. It's sad that not much has changed throughout the years; we are still using the same song to portray a similar devastating event that is taking place 25 years later. Jakah Allah Khairun, Salaams Yasir…

(Do you recall hearing that hadieth?) I'm like sooooooooo confused when I read this. What does this hadieth mean? does it mean that we should always think 'merciful' and that way we'll be more prone to mercy? Please clarify bests! abdul Salaam Yaser,
