As I commented its programming last year for being too young and slapstick, which are conflicting the needs of Muslim listeners, previously I also said that Zayan FM sounded closer to Era which served younger listeners (Gen Y and Z). Now, I read this recently, I like this post ever.
In my opinion, what I want to say is "Best one ever".
The post means that the Facebook users Hana Syed which is also Zayan listener asks Zayan to stop playing those teen pop. She is unsure what the song title is on the radio station, but with the lyrics "God, please help me to love him/her". Then she says that she hears that song again at 11pm after she already listened to this song on Zayan around 9pm, so she states that she cannot listen to this station anymore, forces to listen to other radio station. Next, she asks are other people ok with that crappy song, she feels confused.
What I like the most on her post is her sentence, "lagu budak tak habis sekolah". Hahahhaha! XD
Literally, "Lagu budak tak habis sekolah" means the songs for the boy/girl who never finish the school. Actually, it is teen pop.
"Budak tak habis sekolah" is the people who are still not ending the high school (not including university or college), aka teenagers or childhood. If a person still never finish his/her college/university studies, that one is not called as "budak tak habis sekolah" as he/she has completed school studies.
From my view, it is very shameful when a religion radio station play those crappy teen songs on air, which criticized by listeners.
I'm usually doing FM DXing (distance radio reception), so I also will tune to Zayan for a while to know about its programming. Yeah! I agree with Hana Syed's comment, because I feel that Zayan is playing more crappy songs than real song (lagu ketuhanan, lagu keindahan, Nasyid) where close to religion one. From Aishah (Projector Band's song), Zalikha (Floor 88's song), then those teen pop love songs like Era, most of them are crappy much.
When my friend who works in radio industry (not Astro) asks me how about this radio station, I heavily criticized it for playing crappy songs and slapstick. Hahahaha! XD
Era plays teen pop and new Malay songs, but Zayan plays too. This already creates internal competition between Zayan and Era. Seriously, Era already serves young listeners by playing hot contemporary songs and teen pop, so Zayan shall avoid from playing it.
Rather than playing "lagu budak tak habis sekolah", Zayan shall concentrate on Islamic value music. To become non-ordinary, Zayan needs to play Islamic songs (aka Nasyid) more, not those crappy teen pop. Islamic pop is also welcomed too to serve modern Muslim listeners better.
For Ramadan month, I partially satisfy with its programming as it provides more Islamic value by playing Nasyid, but I still hate Zayan for playing crappy teen song also.

Weekend shows seems "nothing" other than Salam Bros/Zayan Valet repeats, so Zayan can add its Nasyid chart show on weekend. "Carta Nasyid 30 di Zayan" sounds nice.
Besides the music (Nasyid chart show), Zayan can air 2 hours Quran recite commentary (bacaan al-Quran) programs after Zohor prayer actually (weekend programme). So, this can make better competition with IKIM FM.
As an another Muslim targeted radio station in Malaysia after IKIM FM and Salam FM, Zayan shall go for competition. First, this can make commercial driven. Second, this can provide another choice radio station to Muslim listeners.
By the way, why no more Arab Musika segment being aired ?
