          Your answer is 50 percent as you have mentioned the film
 Arab Ka Sitara but not the song ' Roshan sa ek sitara islam hai
hamara '

         The qawwali is also from the same movie 
' Vasl ki shab hai na khaali jayegi ' by Amir bai and party , it was
quite popular in my childhood .

       The MD is S.Qureshi and have no idea if Alla Rakha ever
composed
 by that name
