The Difference Between Singing with Musical Instruments and Singing Without Them

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is there a difference between singing when it is without musical instruments and singing when it is with musical instruments, in terms of its permissibility and prohibition?

Answer:
Singing is forbidden, but if it is accompanied by musical instruments, that is another evil, where two evils come together: the evil of singing and the evil of musical instruments. Yes.
