The Ruling on Listening to and Selling Melodized Anthems

Question:
He says: May Allah reward you. In this time, anthems have emerged that are attributed to Islam, and they are melodized and sung with captivating voices. There are people who repeat these anthems behind the singer, and these anthems imitate the places where licentious singing is performed. What is the ruling on listening to and selling these anthems, especially since they have spread among young men and women?

Answer:
These anthems are forbidden; because they are of the forbidden singing, and of the forbidden amusement. So it is not permissible to sell them, buy them, or circulate them, and it is not permissible to make an exception for them or to listen to them. Because these resemble the anthems of the Sufis who take anthems as obedience and nearness to Allah and worship of Allah. This is of their false innovation. So the one who takes these anthems resembles the Sufis, or he is a Sufi in reality. These anthems did not come to us except from the Sufis, and not from the people of party songs and party slogans. The partisanship that has covered the people today was not known among the Muslims. Yes.
