About the video: The music video for “QAD BADA (Withdrawal into the Perception of the Essence)” is set in Abiquiu, New Mexico, and follows Hakim and his son Kareem’s journey to Dar al-Islam, an adobe mosque in the mountains of Abiquiu. It commemorates Hakim and speaks to the universal message of unconditional love and dedication.

About Hakim: Hakim Archuletta has worked in the healing arts for over three decades, and has helped countless individuals in the global Muslim community and beyond. Hakim has been the sole caretaker of his adult disabled son Kareem, and this music video highlights his love and devotion. Recently, Hakim’s wheelchair accessible van was totaled, and, as Hakim’s close friends, 7STATIONS put together a successful fundraising campaign on LaunchGood, which raised over $25,000. The debut music video by the band is dedicated to the supporters that made that campaign successful.

About 7Stations: Muslim rock band 7STATIONS fuses Arabic Islamic / Sufi spiritual poetry and traditional North-African melodies with modern musical styles. 7STATIONS consists of two founding members, MHMD and Meek. MHMD is an Irish-American Muslim, born and raised. Meek comes from a Jewish background, and converted to Islam in the early 2000s. Together, they are on a musical journey to spread a universal message to the world through their rock renditions of the poetry of the Moroccan Shaykh, Muhammad ibn al-Habib, as well as other traditional Islamic songs.

Lyrics - English Translation:

My Beloved's Face appeared
and shone in the hour before dawn

Its light enveloped my heart
and humbly I prostrated

He said: Arise and ask of Me!
Whatever you desire is yours

I said: You! You are all I need!
I cannot bear to be without You!
