The Ruling on Declaring a Disbeliever One Who Considers Singing Permissible
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The Honorable Shaykh, he says: Is the one who considers singing permissible a disbeliever, and why?
Answer:
No, he is not a disbeliever, because it is a matter of scholarly disagreement. One does not declare a disbeliever the one who considers permissible what is disputed, even if the stronger, correct, and accurate position is that it is forbidden. However, regarding rhymed poetry and the wife of reason, the one who considers them permissible is not a disbeliever.
