Since getting older, I have a newfound appreciation for how Islam is practised in Singapore. While a younger me might have been been confused at what was being recited in between tarawih<\/em> prayers at the mosque and read along after it got familiar to my ears, I now actually know what I’m reciting and understand why all those women around me were crying so fervently many moons ago.<\/p>\n

Qasidah “Ya Tawwab Tub Alaina” or “Qad Kafani Ilmu Rabbi”<\/h2>\n

This is widely recited during the break after the 8th rakaat or at the end of tarawih prayers. The qasidah “Ya Tawwab Tub Alaina” is attributed to\u00a0Habib Abdullah bin Alawi al-Haddad, a luminary from the land of Tarim, a place from which many of our Islamic practices here in Singapore are informed by. However, only the chorus is sung and then it’s mashed with another qasidah titled “Qad Kafani Ilmu Rabbi”.<\/p>\n

This is what you probably would have heard these past nights:<\/p>\n
