Did Micheal Jackson Sing 'Give Thanks to Allah'?

I was fooled all this while. But you will be too when you listen to the song. The voice is so similar that you will not think twice and believe that a certain Micheal Jackson (picture left) sings the song. However, it did perplexed me because the pronunciation of the Arabic words was so perfect along with the correct makhraj that it is nearly impossible that a convert can say it very well.

The real singer is Zain Bhikha (picture right) in an album 'Towards the Light'.




The lyrics:

Give thanks to Allah,
for the moon and the stars
praise Him all day for
what is and what was.
Take hold of your imaan
don't give in to shaitan
oh you who believe please give thanks to Allah.
Allahu Ghafur Allahu Rahim Allahu yuhibu al Mohsinin, huwa Khalikhuna huwa Razikhuna wa hua ala kulli shaiin qadir
Allah is Ghafur Allah is Rahim Allah is the one who loves the Muhsinin,
He is our Creator, He is our Sustainer and He is the one who has power over all.

Give thanks to Allah,
for the moon and the stars
praise Him all day for
what is and what was.
take hold of your imaan
don't give in to shaitan
oh you who believe please give thanks to Allah.
Allahu Ghafur Allahu Rahim Allahu yuhibu al Mohsinin, huwa Khalikhuna huwa Razikhuna wa hua ala kulli shaiin qadir

Allah is Ghafur Allah is Rahim Allah is the one who loves the Muhsinin,
He is our Creator, He is our Sustainer and He is the one who has power over all.
