Pergi Tak Kembali

Pergi Tak Kembali is the third studio album by Malaysian nasheed group Rabbani. It was released in December 1999 by Permata Audio and EMI Music Malaysia.

Production

Following two successful albums, Rabbani planned to release an album with a more modern and upbeat sound, moving away from traditional nasheed. Pergi Tak Kembali incorporates contemporary and alternative Nasheed elements to appeal to younger listeners.The album was co-produced by KRU, Zaid Yusof, Yusri Yusoff and B. Nury.

The songs 'Pergi Tak Kembali' and 'Masa' were composed and produced by KRU, with lyrics penned by B. Nury. Both tracks took only five days to complete. Rabbani also recorded a new rendition of 'Insan', a song originally performed by Yantzen, for the albums.

The album features Quranic and Hadith recitations interspersed throughout its 16 tracks.
