With the emergence of globalization and its entertainment aspect, and due to the huge influence of modernization on the society especially among the youth, there was, indeed, a need for an alternative entertainment. And, as far as Muslims are concerned, the most effective way in this regard was, to a great extent, Islamic Nasyid. Entertainment itself has been an area of great discussion and dispute among Muslim scholars throughout the ages all over the world. In Malaysia, the issue of allowing or disallowing entertainment specifically songs and music is no longer a big issue. As a matter of fact, entertainment is part of the traditions and culture of the Muslims in this part of the world. Nevertheless, the major concern here is that what kind of songs and music do Nasyid groups present? Could Islamic Nasyid be an alternative to the conventional or non-Islamic songs? Is it possible for Nasyid performance to be viewed as an act of worship? To what extent Nasyid groups are contributing in the Islamization of entertainment and enhancement of Islamic awareness in Malaysian society??
