Zain Bhikha (born August 9, 1974, Pretoria, South Africa) is a nasheed artist. He has written many religious albums concerning Islam. He was born to parents Rashid and Mariam Bhikha. The only son, with three sisters; Zubida, Aysha and Nasima, Zain showed a keen interest from a young age in entertaining his friends and family with his beautiful singing.Zain was not aware of his full potential until 1994 when he won a singing competition on Radio 702, a local radio station. A simple song which he recorded on his home karaoke system brought him out tops among mostly professional participants. After this great accomplishment, he seriously considered recording an album. This consideration was put into action after he was approached by a local school who asked him to write and record their school anthem. Zain took it a step further and composed a full album, entitled A Way of Life. This was a compilation of basic Acapella Islamic songs, mostly in English covering the various tenets of Faith.
