To me it sounds like a Dravidian language spoken in an Islamic environment, as God is referred to as Allah.
So, I go for Brahui spoken in Pakistan.
I think it’s a regional variety of Indonesian/Malay, but I’m not sure which one.
From the Indian Sub Continent I would guess one of the many minor Languages of Pakistan.
I’m going with an Indonesian language too. No chance of guessing which one.
At first, I was thinking this was an Austroasiatic language of India, but given a few more listens, I’m leaning towards an Austronesian language of insular Southeast Asia.
I’m going to say a language from India, but I’m certainly not sure.
The answer is Nyadu’/Bampape (Benyadu’), a member of the Dayak branch of the Malayo-Polynesian spoken in Kalimantan in Borneo in Indonesia.
