Zikir (also spelled Dhikr) is a genre of Islamic devotional music and recitation centered on the rhythmic repetition of the names of God (Allah) and supplications. While rooted in religious worship, it has evolved into a distinct musical form characterized by hypnotic vocal chants, often accompanied by minimal percussion or performed a cappella. The genre ranges from traditional Sufi ceremonies, where the recitation induces a trance-like state, to contemporary pop-influenced recordings known as 'Zikir Terapi' (Therapy Zikir) designed for relaxation and spiritual healing.
