Interesting, I don't think many people who aren't Muslim would start their album thank yous by saying: "I thank the almighty god allah, though i thank you everyday it makes me even prouder to proclaim your name to the world. Thank you for life, thank you for music, thank you for my family, thank you for the good times and the bad times, thank you for being you and as I travel this journey towards perfection I ask that you use me to reflect your light and spread love to all mankind. I dedicate this album back to you because from you it came. Your servant... Rashid."

But then again, I'm sure you'd know better than anyone else (except Common of course) :).
