Someone Sang A Muslim Version Of "Deck The Halls" And People Have Thoughts
Christmas carols but make it Islamic.
Everyone knows the Christmas carol "Deck the Halls". You know, the one that goes: "Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la!"

And everyone knows there's now a tradition of people getting angry about multiculturalism "ruining" Christmas, like Tesco including a Muslim family in its TV advert this year.

So when someone discovered "The Muslim Christmas Song", set to the tune of "Deck the Halls", it started to pop off.
Ok I have now officially seen it all. Whose family is this, own up now
Got the fire going? Check. OK, buckle up, you're in for a ride.

"Deck the Halls", but make it Islamic.

The catchy chorus is replaced with: "la 'ilaha 'illa llah" – an Islamic testimony that there is no god but God.

It's a halal singalong in a Christmas jumper.

It didn't take long for people to have ~many thoughts~.
@MurshHabib 12 seconds in and I'm like...
People were perplexed.
@MurshHabib What is this ????
People have so many questions.
@MurshHabib ????
Like, lots of questions.
@MurshHabib
Some people really weren't feeling it.
@MurshHabib This is pointless. Why do they need to copy a xmas carol. Come up with a new song if you must.
While other people hoped it was to piss racists off.
@MurshHabib @hardcastIe I hope this was done with the sole intention of trolling the racists
Some people found it low-key catchy though.
@MurshHabib I’m mad but still
It's getting people in the festive mood.
@MurshHabib
Some people think it's a tune.
@MurshHabib It slaps looool
Maybe even that it's so bad...it's good?
@aishagani It's so awful - and so catchy! My mind says no but my body says 'I can't stop humming along' ergh. Bette… https://t.co/c72Q9TLuWn
Some people want it to hit the charts already.
@MurshHabib I want this in the top 40 by December.😀
People appreciated the little details.
@MurshHabib The "Hey!" at :56 tho 😂😂😂
@aishagani The guy’s white slacks are my personal highlight
With a little research, we discovered "The Muslim Christmas Song" was actually released last year, by Awakening Records, an Islamic faith-inspired label. The singer is Raef, an American Muslim songwriter from Washington. He's enjoying the renewed interest in his cover of "Deck the Halls".
Mine - family and friends, we had a great time :) https://t.co/0Z7yQTSXxX
