NEW Season 2 Intro (audio options) - Your vote counts
Bismillah ar-Rahmaan ar-Raheem,
The intro was made by Iman Studios and was sent to us. The only thing that I did to it was take out the audio and replace it with three different types of Adhan. I have put together four possible intro options (each with a different audio) so please comment on which one you like most.Your vote will decide on which intro will appear at the beginning of the future Reminder videos InshAllah.
CAN'T SEE IT? Try YOUTUBE or GOOGLE VIDEO
**Note: We will not be able to modifications of the intro, since it was given to us. So when you are voting, please do so with the understanding that we will take the clip "as is". Also, I'm not here to promote nor defend Music. The purpose of this post is not to start a "music" debate. That can be done later if a future video ever covers it. I'm just want to put that out before the comment section ends up in a lon debate over music.

assalamualaikum..brothers and sisters in Islam.i would prefer the option 1 for the intro.^_^
may Allah guide us to the right path..
Option 3, if not 2-4 cos the prophet (PBUH) and sahabah always started with the name of Allah not something else
2 and 4 sound the same. But 4 is a notch better. So for me it would be 1 or 4
asalam alaykum ! it would have to be 4 if not 2
asalam alaykum i would like 2 make an important comment about the note you made about music , i feel you need 2 realise the fact that people like you and know you , is enough for you 2 have 2 be careful wether you are doing anything haram , if you do something haram and people follow you on that not only will they get a sin for it so will you , especillay the young and impressionable the type of mentality they have well if 'baba ali did it ' i will 2 . so please brother you have 2 be careful with videos you show and you must check wether its halal at the end of the day its your judgment .i hope you have not taken any offence to this and i hope you think about pls dnt get sucked into fame .
may allah make ur intentions sincere ameen
pss. i just want 2 make sure iv made myself clear, whatever you do , whatever picture you portray of islam and if that thing you did was haram and people did it cs u did it , allah will ask you on the day of judgment about what you did , brother dnt get sucked into fame life is 2 short 2do the wrng things , dnt let shaytan decieve you i think what your trying 2do is great ,just always double check its halal without making excusis for the haram . and once again may allah bless you ameen
1 or 3
Option 1!
I prefer #4.. inshallah.. by the way...you really opened a lot of people eyes in your videos..MashaAllah Keep up the good work..Inshallah, In the 2nd season..
the 1st one.
option 4 then option 2. option 4 has a bit more clarity . I think I heard birds???
Aslm wbr,
I would prefer option 1 as the music, unlike the others( with the athan), would appeal more to the non-muslims counterpart. Apparently my mum, a non-muslim, was astonished and felt weird when she heard the athan playing. To me, introduction and esp intro music is impt in getting the audience(esp non-muslim)to be more curious on knowing the content, and not start getting 'uneasy'and 'uncomfortable'from the start.
Hope this helps=)
assalamualikum
I have to choose option 2 lol I have this for my ringtone also and when option 2 came on I ran to answer the phone.
Number two!!! I liked it more than number four, even though its the same voice...
Number 1!
Option 1 seems better!
Asalaam Ahlykoem to all
I liked option 1, because I think the 'athan' should be used when you are calling the people up for prayer.
After hearing option 1 ,you could say 'Bismillah Irahman Irahim' and then show the video.
And I alsow share the same opinion like Yasmine "introduction and esp intro music is impt in getting the audience(esp non-muslim)to be more curious on knowing the content, and not start getting 'uneasy'and 'uncomfortable'from the start."
Asalaam ahlykoem,
number 3, it matches your style of intro better.
option 1 or 3.
DA 1ST REMINDS ME OF SOMETHING FROM B4U MUSIC SO ILL CHOOSE NO.4.
2/ 4, Both go well with the logos as they appear om display.
#2 is the best. after that #4, then #3. i didnt like the first one.
I think option 1 would be the best!!
Option 4.
Assalamualaikum,
I personally like no. 1 (i've listened to B4U music and in my humble opinion it's really nothing like that). But, I'm not a scolar (at least not yet:) so if you feel after research or from your own knowledge that music is not good, then I choose no. 4
wasalam
P.S. Keep up the awesome work, May Allah reward you tenfold. Ameen.
scholar not scolar. ugh
Option 1! no doubt
The 1st one
I thought option 2 is better because the adhan is a 'call for prayer' and has 'words'. Most intros just have a background tune because. Having words just distracts ppl or looks out of tune.
On the other hand, I thought option 2 was too slow for the graphics. Cant we have something a little more up-beat? Even adding a bit of drum/duff beats would give it a lively/positive/passionate tone which will also go with the content of the videos.
Most definately OPTION 1,, we don't want to overwhelm non- Muslim viewers. Besides, the other options overpower the graphics.
Thanks for giving the non-music options.
If ppl don't like azan, how about using verse [3:104], it has the word "Ummah" and fits your theme of "Reminder" (about 19 sec.)
I like #1, mostly cause 2-4 are from a salat program I use. Plus, i think you want to keep the intro inviting to all.
To be honest, neither one. Can't you find something else? Preferably, not Qur'an or Adhan, but rather, something that suits both the dawah and comedic elements of your videos.
I just read the **note.....*sigh*
Assalamu Alykum
I prefer option 2.
ws
Assalaamoalaikumwarahmutalliwabarakatuhu,
I'd def. hafta go with one.. or three if u want an adhan in the bakground..
^_^
payce
Assalamo Aleikom wa Rahmatollahi wa Barakatuh!
i prefer number 4 the most, or number 2, number 3 is alright.. but i really love number 4. there's something special about it..
defenetly not number 1.. hm..isnt it music in that one..?
i yhink option 2 sounds wonderful as it is thecall for prayer from our holy city makkah.... the others are good too but option 1 is a total no no it sounds too ancient an it's kinda like music....
salaams
def number 1 :)
salaam 'alaykum,
I don't want to get into a debate about music, but I would say stay away from option 1 because of the musical instruments. I like option 3... it almost seemed liked it was "on beat" with the graphic effects.
was salaam
Number 3 sounds beautiful masha allah...feels like you're in Makkah! Definitely don't do no. 1 coz its meant to be a dawah programme and putting music in doesn't set an example. Playin the Adhaan at the beginning is a form of dawah in itself!
Assalamou aleikoum,
Keep up with the good work, Macha Allah, and may Allah reward you for it..
I agree with the last 2 postes, so I should say: Adhan #3..
wa salamou aleikoum
number 3!!!
salaams,
i would go for option 4..
i'd keep away from option 1 as 'music' is being used..
yes i know that in islam it does not directly refer anywhere that music is haram or anything..(though it has been said that 'beware from idle talk')
[if i am wrong with this fact some one plz correct me, jazzakallah]
and brother, i suggest you to do an episode on Music.. coz this is like a common and widespread issue that should be discussed, insha Allah.
I orefer Also 3 Amdoelillah, don't use music you are know on the right pad and i love to see your films, Macha'llah
I agree with the last 1 poste, Elhamdoelillah.
Muslim :: Book 24 : Hadith 5279
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: The bell is the musical instrument of the Satan
Option 3 3 3 3 and again 3 beautifull
salaamualaikum, i think option 1..i agree wit one of the other comments, and from personal experience, yes, altho the adhaan is a beautiful thing within itself..it also wil not b appealing to non-muslims,as to some, it can seem pretty scary sounding, also, for a wider audience, and to attract the attention of the younger muslims...i think option 1! :)
Assalamu alaikum Brothers....we think you should go with Option 3. Or any option other than 1, because of the music, which is haram. I know this is a debatable topic for some! Hey, how about you make a video blog about music in Islam??!
Option 1 or 3, I really like the first option, it sounds a bit Turkish hahaha
I liked the 1st one but the whole thing about music can be a bit "dodgy"...
so the next best one was no.2..
"always start in the name of ALLAH" they say..
so i feel although they rest all sounded the "same" no.2 was the best.
S/a
I think no..4 is best but no. 2 or 3 wud do too..i like no.1 but its best to start with the Almighty's name and insh ur Films will b a success and help pple around the world to bcum beta muslims...keep it up u doing a gud job masha'allah...may God reward u for all ur hard work...tc
salaam wa3alaykoum
i prefer option 1
wasalaam wa3alaykoum
Three Is better than all, no shubahat(doubt)If the Athamn is Haram or Halal and this muathin has a nice voice.
Salaams Bro,
Masha'Allah I love your work.
May Allah SWT reward you for your efforts Insha'Allah
Bismilla
Assalaam alaikum,
I am sure few will say this but three is the most halal choice the adhan is to be recited and not sang like a song. Brothers for the sake of Allah focus on halal and harram.
Allah Says (interpretation of meaning): {O you who believe! Fear Allâh (by doing all that He has ordered and by abstaining from all that He has forbidden) as He should be feared. [Obey Him, be thankful to Him, and remember Him always], and die not except in a state of Islâm (as Muslims) with complete submission to Allâh.} [Quran 3: 102].
Ibn Rajab (RA) said: "The complete Taqwa is practicing obligations, avoiding prohibitions and doubts. Doing desirable acts and avoiding undesirable acts is also from Taqwa.
Fi amanala
halimah bint david
3 was the best
Asalamualykum
i woud prefer 4
alsalam 3alaikom
I prefer option 4 :)
I like option three (3). It flows nicely with the intro. The other options I think kind of jump at you. Option 3 is calmer, and more relaxing.
Salaam.
Assallamou Alaikoum,
I prefered the option 1
:)
Salamun Alaikum,
I think option 3 or 4 are the best...they sorta fit in..or something better might be
51: 55. And remind (by preaching the Qur'ân, O Muhammad ) for verily, reminding profits the believers.
Adding a recitation of that verse by Saad Al Ghamdi or Shaykh Shuraim..since the theme is to remind -> "Reminding you just in case you forgot"..
My 2 cents.
Walaikum Assalam
I think option 1 goes best with the way the words come up, ie the rythm of it? Obviously it is best to start with Allah's name but watching it, Option 1 seems more natural rather than just playing a sound over the words?
asalaamu alaykum
I would say none of the options because option 1 is music which we all know is haram, and the others are adhan and adhan is not an intro tune, and if the vidoes are watched by none-muslim which I have seen a none-muslim relative of mine watching and find it to be interesting then the adhan may put them off. So may be find an interesting nasheed, as there are so many nasheeds available today, mashallah, that would suit as an intro tune and Allah knows best
wasalaamu alaykum
option 2
Adhan is one of the most amazing sounds in the world, but I still think for the combination of the visual and audio, option 1 is best.
I don't know, the action in the video is fast and moving and the adhan is slow. The adhan is usually good with a fade-in from black or white sequence, and a relatively progression of the video, to equal the flow of sound of the adhan. For this though, I suggest #1.
i think dat the first 1 is da best!!
Oh and when others say start with the name of Allah swt, I agree, but I don't think in the form of adhan. Maybe just have the screen be black, and put on a bismillahirrahmaanirrahim audio, and then start with the intro. Just a suggestion.
Option 1 and 2
Asalaamu Alaikum Brother Ali,
Please, please, please do NOT use number 1. Despite reaching out to a large non-Muslim base (as many pointed out as to why you should use #1), you are still Muslim, mash'Allah, and should not change ANYTHING to attract viewers. It is better to please Allah than the kufar. Whether music is harram or not, there is enough doubt where I do feel it is best you do NOT use it.
Therefore, I think #3 was BEAUTIFUL! SubhanAllah....but option #4 was a close second for me....
This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
4 fo' sure. lol. Oh and I just wanted to add something about the season premire of the second season. A lot of the stuff that you said, seemed kinda, NOT ORIGINAL. Your known for your unique way of expressing things that no one's ever thought of. You make people realize things they never realized before. So the differences in wearing the hijab part kinda seemed copied from forwards I recieve in emails on a daily basis.
option 1
I like option 4
Assalamu Alaikum dear brother Ali...I've seen other people's votes, and though many think you should start with #1, I disagree. Although not all scholars agree that music is haram, it seems incompatible with the message you are sending through these videos. Alhamdulillah, they've been successful and i hope they contiue to be a success. I was sort of surprised at the new intro in the first video of season 2 because, although people would call it a "professional intro," I think keeping it all Islamic would be better for the theme. Plus, what better intro can you have than the athan of the haram? that's my opinion, ultimately, it's ur decision. sorry for writing so much:/
option 1...adhan wud b 2 serious ...it doesnt go with the 'just in case u forgot' bit ...hope that helped ^^
ok, I have a suggestion. I don't know if it'll always be possible, but maybe you can find an aya from the Quran that matches whatever topic you'll be discussing and play it in the beginning. Just an idea!
1 or 2 brother?
i like 1 coz it goes with the whole 'reminder' thing...but the adhan is also beautiful so 1 or 2???
2 or 4
#1 :)
As-salamu alaikom,
I recommend #4. this is yet another great opportunity to introduce an integral part of our daily lives, esp to non-Muslims, where most of us miss if we live in the West. The adhan also creates sonic branding for the whole project. And last this is the best option i feel fits brother Ali's proceeding upbeat tone. #1 comes quite as a contrast.
Jazakom Allah khair
Asalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatallah. I prefer option #4 because I like the voice of the Adhan. Jazak Allahu Khair.
Salaam
It's definitely a close call between #3 and #4, but I like some of the ideas which have been coming up such as the aayat - or tasmiya.
A nice 'aoodhubillahi minash shaytaanir rajeem, bismillahir rahmaanir raheem' would be so meaningful and correct.
I don't personally think that Arabic would alienate the non-muslim audience because it's such a short clip and also, nowadays people increasingly pride themselves on being culturally attuned and aware.
Jazakumullah khairun
Fee amaanillah
Wassalaam
assalamu alaikum,
i like option 1 best
option 4
I would say between 2...but option 1 sounds more like an intro for a show or something... insha-allah hope this helps
option 1
'"£$%^&*
option 1
salam, Honestly I love option 1!! and if u decide to go with somthing with the Athan, then go with option 3.
MashaAllah site!
I choose for option 4!
OPTION 4!!!
I LOVE HOW THAT LAST "ALLAHU AKBAR" ECHOED/FADED INTO THAT LAST CONTENT IMAGE...IT GAVE ME CHILLS SINCE IT REMINDED ME WHEN I WENT TO HAJJ...
...THATS A GREAT WAY TO START OFF YOUR BLOG VIDEOS, FOR ANY MUSLIM OR NON-MUSLIM...SINCE IT LEAVES YOU WITH THAT "CHILL" FEELING, WHICH THEN ALLOWS YOUR VIEWERS TO HAVE THAT TYPE OF AWARENESS RIGHT WHEN THEY BEGIN WATCHING YOUR BLOG VIDEO...
Option 1
Option 1
Salam, I really like the first one because it fits the best. The athan is a great idea but athan is for prayer time.. and it should stay that way. I donno.. just my opinion. The other thing is i know some people posted their comments telling you not to get sucked into the fame.. i just want to say that i dont think anybody would waste so much time of their life just to make us laugh and be famous. Ali could become famous in a REALLY easier way! So i just want to congratulate you on an amazing series and inshallah this will be something that sets an amazing example for more and more people. P.S..I'm not sure if you try and be funny but seriously.. you are halarious! keep it up! Jazakallah Khair!
I think only option one relates to the backgound and almost lets you know that this is the beginning of the show. The Athans are nice but I dont see how they fit into the equation. Allah knows best.
Abdul says option 3 is the best
Assalamualikum
in my opinion #1 is the best
Assalamu alaikum brother. How are u? I would insha'allah choose option 3. I hope u choose well brother.
NUMBER 1!!!!!
OPTION 1!
Number 4
4
i love number four!
1 or 2
Assalamu alaykum brother
Option 1 is with music. I believe this kind of music is not allowed in islam.
option 2,3 alhamdullillah.
number 2!!!! or you can find a nice nasheed with the daff in the background, or just vocals
i would choose 3 dunno i like the voice of the Muazzin
Salam
Option 1 is great. The others dont fit the style of the intro and probably wouldnt be right for non-muslims to feel included. I think the season 1 videos were great even for non-muslims to learn from.
well...117 comments alredy! woah...anyways ready like 10 then got bored...lol...they all sayin similar stuff!
but i say stick with the thing u dont doubt!
number 3 is the best inshALlah!!
NO. 333333333333333333333333
just to emphasise my view
ma salaama
NO 1 or 4
2-4 might 'scare away' non-Muslims
but would be better for Muslims.
i say 3 or 4....
one is too controversial.
1 or 4! =)
goodluck guys!
Assalam Alaikum,
I liked the 3rd intro and my second preference would be the 1st.
Salam.
salam alikum ahki,
option 4
Assalamu'alykum wa rahmatullah,
Option 1 may go best with the intro scene, the athan will have a greater impact on the audience. Starting with the praising and exaltation of Allah 'azza wa jal can only bring you success, inshaAllah. I prefer option 3, also a suggestion could be to find an ayah that fits your message and theme of "the reminder" that would be great. Ok Akhi keep up the good work, May Allah guide your affairs and grant you Jannah!
Assalam o Alaikum
Number 4....common adhan on net, but good echo effect
Assalam o Alaikum
1 or 4 is fine :D
1 or 3
The adhan idea probably isnt creative to me and we need to appeal to the non muslims in giving dawah before us, i dont think its appropriate cuz adhan is for calling people to prayer not just that but also it sends an unusual pulse to non muslims so u can start with bismillahi ar rahman ar rahim afterwards and I dont know some people say its haram about music but cuz interpretations r not always being correctly studied, I believe in the music that corrupts the ears not the music that gives u a feel of the theme and relaxes ur soul. so option 1 is the best
salams brother ali try yo use native deens ending tone from the music they used Ya Allah Im Prayin Istikhara To U. the last 10 seconds of it is perfect. it even has a goood fade in. azan won't be a good idea cause. at one point your listening to it and it just gets cut off
-Imran K.
Aslamalaykum brother,
I would go for option no three cause had a real big effect for me... thanks bye
Option # 1, definitely!
salamunalaikum :D, i think #3 is the best. the first Allahuakbar just makes me shiver. i really love it so much!
#1 is good, but after hearing the options with adhan, it seems somehow weak and silent.
I like option #1 the best. Some of the athans are cut off at the beginning, so that's why I chose option 1.
Assalamu 3alikum wah ra7mat Allaho wah Barakatoh.
Option 1 makes a lot more sense from a tonality point of view. YOu need to keep in mind that your episodes may serve as guidance to the right path to non-muslims of (Arabs and English speaking) insha Allah.
Option # 1
People choosed:
option 1: 59 times
option 2: 18 times
option 3: 30 times
option 4: 32 times
hmm what will it be?
assalamu alaikum
Keep your project as halaal as possible...music is haram and at best debatable, so try and avoid even the doubtful matters.
Option 3 is quite different and pleasant on the ear so go with that
Assalamu Alaikum
I will give you the best solution. Neither one of those options you presented are ideal. The first one uses a flute or something and will put some Muslims off. But i hear underlying it a drum beat. Drums are acceptable in Islam. It also had a nice beat that matched when the image would go in and out. So i think that is the best compromise - do some kind of drum beat and you can add some sounds made by voice like some nasheed artists do.
As for the other options - athan does not match at all with the graphic motion nor is ideal since we are not seeing a clip on prayer at a Mosque or some kind of mosque documentary.
option 1
Option 4! Remionds me of being at the great mosques.
3 and 4 are my favorite
i think option 1 is nice bc it just has a nice way of starting off the episode. i really appreciate that u started this show. it really gets u to think in a very nice way. i especially like that it has a fun way of doing it and makes u listen. so jasalahu khairun. asalamu alaikum wa rahmatulalhi wa barakatu.
Asalamu Alaikum
I liked option 4
Option 3 Insha'Allah
By the way, I think the graphic for the intro is absolutely beautiful. I love the layering and everything.
:)
definetley 1
Salaam, I think option 1 was the best..
the adhan does not go with it,,its too serious so that must be no.1
Firs one I like the most.
2
i like the 3rd one
Salam's
i love number one because it is halal instruments being used hopefully, and plus salad athan is for the beginning of salads although you should always start with ALLAH's name Play option #1 and then when you start your videos with Salamu Alaikum
Assalamualaikum!
Option 2 please!
option 3 or 4 the sound of the azan is better than music
option 1
salam alaikum
i like option 1
I love number 3 first and then number 4.
Where can I get the whole azan for number 3.
Jazakkallah .
Your brother
Koorosh
Option 4 of course!!!! TT's the azan from Makkah... Masyallah :>
Assalamo alikom all of you,
I liked the first option the most
JAK
4
4
i prefer the first option alhamdulillah the adthan is beautiful but it just does not match this option one is my vote
i like option 1.
Option 2
the 1st one in my opinion..
assalamu alaykum
i prefer option 4 but if not 2
take care jazak ALLAH khir for everything your doin on this site
I like option 3. Sounds like it "fits". Know what I mean?
Also, just a note: Didn't RasulAllah saws say, "If in doubt, dispell with the doubt"?
Kind of like "Better safe than sorry" on the BIG DAY.
May Allah guide us all, ameen.
Assalamu Alaikum Wa rahmat allahi wa barakatu;
I think you should start with either number three or khutbat alhajah, because that is what Rasulallah saws always started with.
I'd go with number 2 or 4.
Two is my first choice.
The quality of 3 wasn't too great.
Number one sounded Arab and not Islamic. (jmho)
no. 3 is beautiful, but 1 suits it better, i think.
I go for # 1 ..unless you look for a better "moathen"
ncie gob there brothers/sisters
Assalamu'alaikum
I like option 2 or 4.
1. The athaan does go with the intro very well.
2. Not having music in the intro will keep happy the brothers/sisters who believe musical instruments to be haraam.
3. Some non-muslims know that musical instruments are haram as well. It looks wishy-washy if they see the video and they think "Wait, I thought musical instruments were forbidden in Islamic scripture?". It's bad da'wah.
Jazaak Allah Khayr
Assalamu'Alaykum
Salaam
I really liked the 2nd azan and the 3rd pick. I hope u choose that one for the shows. Thanks!
Salaam
Asalamu alaikum,
I would prefer option 1 as a intoduction or option 3 because it starts with the name of Allah.
Assalam u Alaikum
#4. Period.
Why not #1? Because even though we wish to bend the rules at times to attract those who are weak at heart or non-muslim, Allah is the one whom controls peoples hearts.
And the grace of Allah in the beginning is a much more clearer sign and differentiates from all the different videos of other religions that have music and what not ... but a simple call to prayer... praising Allah swt.
May Allah guide us all.
aicha, if you combing all three adhans the number is greater than option 1, which means that adhan (non-music) is 80 over music which is 59.
Salam Alaikum
Salamu alaykum,
OPTION 4.
Waslaam,
Ghareebah.
Assalamu Alaikum all
I like options 1 and 3
Assalamu Alaikum all
I like options 1 or 3!
3
option 1!
I like 1 and 4
salam
we have to remember that girls have to cover their heads when the azan comes on so it would be easier on us if we didnt have to run for one every time we watch so number one is my favorite
aslamulakum.
i think the 1st one is the best but if you looking for the
halal-ist ithink the 2nd one
i like the 3rd and the 4th one the best!
like no 1 but then if you want adhan then no3. although wen i first watched it no 4 semmed good as well but the voice for 3rd is nyc..
i would go with 3
asalam alaykum! i would go with 3
Hmm. None of them, to be quite honest.
1 - music
2-4 - adhan, not really appropiate.
assalamoalaikum
first one please
As-salamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh, The Adhan is composed of specific words and phrases to be recited for the time schedule for the prayers. With this in mind I feel the adhan would not be approiate for the intro and I prefer option 1. Jazakallahu khairan. Your sister in Islam.
option no. 1! definitely. keep up the good work.
jazakallah khair
i like option 1
Definitely Option 4, may Allah's name ring with the beginning of each Islamic Show!
I like option 1.
When the other options played my little ones ran to get the prayer rugs out. Mind you my little ones are 2 and 3. So if the association with the call to prayer is already that ingrained in there minds, then please don't confuse the "REMINDER" with a prayer call.
About the music thing. I don't get what the hoopla is about instrumental stuff. #1 is great and I don't know a muslim who doesn't listen to music, almost every commercial in the US has a jingle.
i prefer no. 1
azan not a good idea. the last option and option 2 are practically the same. just that option two is better quality. and i believe option 4 is the ending of option 2
Imran k.
option 1
Asalaamu alaikum...I liked number 3 annnnnd i know you said that you couldn't get any other background sound to it but i think you should try and get it edited and put nasheed or daf (the halal kind of drum) in the background because the adhaan is supposed to be a call to prayer, and im not sure if its appropriate to use it in the beginning of a show or blog. Allah (subhana wata 'ala) knows best. Ma asalaama
salaam
i like option 1
allah-hafiz
option 4 or option 3 (in that order). option 4 goes better with the movement, but option 3 is a sound-clip I've never heard before.
i dont think the ezan should be used in the intro.. the ezan was given to us for prayer and i think we should only use it for that reason not for other types of introductions. ppl even use it for ringtones!! that seems so out of place!
so i prefer the option of no ezan.
prefered the 1st intro. I guess if a non muslim looks at it he may look upon it in a non biased manner if that makes sense.
I like number 1 and number 4, the other two, the audio and video don't seem to match too well
Option 1 definitely.. it's more appealing to non-muslims and that's what da3wa is all about.. and there's nothing wrong with musical instruments as the daff (a muscial instrument) was used to welcome the prophet pbuh into medina after the hijrah.
salam.
Definitly option 3!
Assalamalaikum,
sorry :(.. but none of them..
I agree with 'Z', I don't think it's right to use the azan..
It also doesn't fit with the intro..but if there's no other option i would go for option 1..
Allahafiz..
Y not the one u used b4?..i liked tht one...otherwise option 1!
Assalamu Alaikum. I think option 4 is the best choice.I have that as the azan downloaded into my computer and in my opinion, it is very sweet.

Salamo alaikom bros & sisters.. Jazakum Allah alf khairan for doing these clips, and educating people, including myself, some more. I would definately go with option number 1... Nothing against the Adan at all (God forbid); I just find the music kind of matches with the visual... that's just my 2 cents anyway :)
