Nasheeds originate from the controversiality surrounding music in Islam. As several Muslim scholars prohibited the use of musical instruments, a new form of Islamic songs arose, either sung a capella or accompanied by simple percussion instruments. Ironically, some newer nasheeds have begun to incorporate other musical instruments as well. Nasheeds are popular throughout the Muslim world, as both an alternative to music and as an extended form of poetry.
