Brilio.net - Salman Al Jugjawy's name is back to grace the Indonesian music world with his latest single, Hey Dunia. However, it's not just an ordinary song, this work is special because it received direct blessing from Sheila on 7 and presents Duta as the vocalist.
Salman, formerly known as Saktia Ari Seno, had left the music world to focus on deepening his religious knowledge. However, he realized that music could be a powerful medium to spread the message of goodness.
"There was a time when I really wanted to stop making music. I felt the need to learn more about religion. But I finally realized that creating works can also be a part of preaching," he said.

Sheila on 7 Ambassador revealed the reason why she and her friends are so supportive of this project. According to her, Sheila on 7 and Salman are always on the same frequency in spreading positive things.
"The three of us have not been able to preach in a profound way like Salman. So when he has good intentions through music, of course we support him," said Duta.
Not only did he get permission from Eross Candra to use Sephia's melody, Adam Subarkah also immediately gave his full support. In fact, this song was released under the label 507 Records, which is managed by Adam himself.
According to Duta, Hey Dunia has a universal meaning and is relevant to everyone.
"All religions teach that this world is only temporary. Life in the world is a journey to collect provisions for charity for the next life," he added.
Now, Salman has not only released Hey Dunia, but has also started preparing other songs with a similar missionary mission.
"If our intentions are good, God willing, there will always be a way," he concluded.
The single Hey Dunia can be heard on various digital platforms since February 17, 2025, complete with a video clip released on the Salman Al Jugjawy TV YouTube channel.
