<![CDATA[This study reveals how popular culture, such as the Islamic-genre music of Gambus Alma Esbeye, presents lyrics about the life of the Prophet, which contain stories of orphans and the Prophet. However, this poses a problem, as anything that tells the story of the Prophet requires validity in terms of its truthfulness. Therefore, this study was conducted to identify the consistency of these lyrics with authentic historical accounts that narrate such stories and to analyse the implications of the content by observing user discussions on the social media comments section of the channel. The results show that, in terms of wording, the lyrics are similar to one of the accounts in the book Durratun Nasihin. Furthermore, some lyrics were found to align with accounts in the book al-Tārīkh al-Kabīr by Imam Al Bukhari and Musnad Al Bazzar by Al Bazzar. This study employs qualitative methods and literature review with a reception theory analysis approach. The aim of this research is to serve as a source of information, particularly for audiences seeking validation or truth regarding the stories conveyed by the lyrics, based on the Prophet's traditions.]]>
