Under the guidance of Mountain of Light and through the global distribution power of Jamal Records, Zain released Faith in 2001.

The songs on this album deal with a broad spectrum of emotions from hardships to happiness, invoking a constant consciousness of the Almighty. The album also brought about collaborations between Zain and close friend and well-loved Canadian singer and songwriter, Dawud Wharnsby Ali. Their duets, Wonderful World and Glory be to Allah are still amongst the most recognizable of all Zain’s releases.
