"We Mappila Muslims of Malabar are producing Corona songs in our oral tradition of Mappilapattus. These songs offer a general awareness of coronavirus outbreak along with its religious outlook, finding idiosyncratic causes, giving an ideology to counter, and finally seeking the ultimate refuge in God.
"I share here one of them sung by a local Mappilapattu artist Vidal K Moidu."
