Bismillah, meaning 'In the Name of God' in Arabic, is an expression frequently used by Muslims. Often you’ll find a person declaring it before the commencement of a task or at the start of written documents, such as personal letters and books. To state 'Bismillah Ar-Rahman Ar-Rahim' (In the Name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful) is to say, in effect, 'I begin with Almighty Allah in mind'. At its core, it is remembrance of one's Creator - in Arabic, dhikr Allah - which is itself considered worship. The Nasheed in this song seek to praise the Almighty, first and foremost, trying to inspire children to reflect upon the majesty of their Creator - that all that surrounds us, including ourselves, is the direct result of God's creation; indeed nothing happens in our world without His express knowledge and say-so. The song urge us to remember Allah more frequently; to be grateful for all His Blessings; to seek His Guidance and Forgiveness. In other words, worship Him.
