The Ruling on Backbiting and Publicizing the Names of Singers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, he says: Is it permissible to backbite singers by naming them, and to curse and insult them?
Answer:
It is a warning against them. I answer with a warning against songs and their practitioners. Naming specific individuals is only done if a need calls for it. If no need calls for it, you generalize: you warn against songs and singers, and you explain the bad consequences that result from these matters. Even if the only consequence is the waste of time, and the time of a Muslim is precious. Yes.
