JAKARTA - After successfully breaking the record for most CD sales in 6 months at a chicken restaurant outlet, Sabyan did not stand idle by. Now, with Hanin Dhiya, he has produced a work entitled Fatimah Az Zahra.

The power of lyrics and arrangements that are characteristic of Sabyan in his hit songs such as Ya Maulana, Aisah, Al Waba, and Ramadhan, once dominated the trending topic with 3 works at once on the YouTube platform. Now, Ayus, the songwriter and keyboardist, Sabyan, is very concerned about the song Fatimah Az Zahra.

All proven abilities in composing lyrics and creating song notations have made Ayus more confident. Until finally Hanin Dhiya was chosen as a collaborator.

"This is because I believe Hanin's vocal character can complement Fatimah's song," said Ayus in his official statement.

Hanin is not a newcomer to the Indonesian music industry. Great by bringing cover songs, Hanin has now turned into a teenage singer with all her strengths.

It was not an easy thing when Hanin participated in the project, because Hanin's habit of covering songs could not be a reference in bringing the song Fatimah Az Zahra.

"I was really nervous when this offer came in. I'm afraid the result will not match the expectations of Sabyan's brothers," said Hanin during the vocal take process.

To get a taste in the song and deepen the song lyrics material, Ayus and the team directed Hanin during the vocal recording process, this is one of Ayus's treatments so that Hanin can sing the song according to the taste and results imagined by Ayus when he created this song.

The song Fatimah Az Zahra is part of the story of the daughter of the Prophet Muhammad SAW. The lyrics in this song are a depiction of a Fatimah Az Zahra where at that time she was the beloved child of the apostle, this was because of Fatimah's attitude and character which was extraordinarily perfect in the eyes of the apostle.

Various commands and directions of the apostle were carried out sincerely and happily for the sake of his love for his father.

The depiction of a saidatinah Fatimah in the lyrics is a beautiful allusion created by Ayus, who really admired Fatimah with all the stories that Ayus got while studying religion. The depiction in the holy book Al Quran and haditz as well as the story of the journey of the apostle which we know is indeed a Fatimah Az Zahra who was a perfect woman at that time.
