Zidah (Malayalam Islamic Song) by Anfas Wayanad

Anfas Wayanad has delivered memorable performances before, but Zidah (Malayalam Islamic Song) sits comfortably among the very best. Anfas Wayanad, Noufal Kottappuram built the instrumental foundation carefully here — every element earns its place in the mix.

The performance by Anfas Wayanad is the centrepiece here — controlled where it needs to be, open where it counts. For fans of a talented ensemble cast, Zidah (Malayalam Islamic Song) is one of those songs that immediately conjures specific scenes and emotions.

The song dates from 2020, but nothing about it sounds dated — the emotions it captures are not tied to a moment. It is the kind of track that works at full volume with friends and equally well in a quiet room alone — the mood adjusts without the song changing.

The 5:42 runtime feels perfectly judged — long enough to develop its ideas, short enough to compel a second play. The track stands as evidence that Anfas Wayanad and Anfas Wayanad, Noufal Kottappuram, working together, are capable of something well above the ordinary.
