E: 31/12/2007 Win An Ipod Nano

For your chance to win an iPod nano packed with all the latest nasheeds, simply enter your details bellow. The winner will be chosen at random on the 1st January 2008.

Nasheeds (Arabic: أناشيد; also spelt Nasyid in Malaysia) are Islamic-oriented songs. Traditionally, they are sung a cappella, accompanied only by a daff. This musical style is used because many Muslim scholars interpret Islam as prohibiting the use of musical instruments except for some basic percussion. Many people admire the purity and simplicity of the music.

    Seeing as it's an Islamic website, don't you think the majority of people on there (until now, possibly!) that will have visited, entered & won will have Muslim names?

    Yes, I also personally dont believe that an islamic website would believe that somebody called Ryan has been visiting their website to buy Nasheeds. Im not making the suggestion that they would discriminate on the basis of my religion but it would be more than apparent that I am not a customer or potential customer of their product, and had only visited in order to win an ipod. When they notice the hundreds of people with non islamic names visiting their website after 24/11 at 10:45pm for the first time, it is likely that they will know what is going on and ensure that a likely customer is awarded the item.
