What is your advice regarding some recordings that use certain introductions on the tape, such as songs, wolf sounds, and the like?

The questioner : There is a new, explicit question regarding the matter of calling people to Allah the Mighty and Sublime. There, O Shaykh, unfortunately, and I say this with great bitterness, some Islamic recordings in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia adopt a recording method where they place, for example, a tape about death or about a woman speaking on the phone or otherwise, and they put an introduction on the tape, either some music or some sounds, to the point that I heard on the tapeThe Shaykh : Ali today, perhaps you are askingThe Shaykh : Ali conveys the picture to you. Truly, by Allah, it is sad. It is represented by a woman speaking to a man on the phone, and the man, may Allah keep us safe, goes in the car with the woman. The sound of the car stops, the man and woman get out, and the sound of the sea, the sea took her, may Allah keep us safe and well. Then you hear the man's voice as if he is falling upon his wife, then the woman screams, and then the sound of a wolf comes, because the content or title of the tape is "Human Wolves." Then after that, the hadiths and the Qur'an come. And this exists withThe Shaykh : Ali Hassan, and frankly, what...

The Shaykh : Do you mean the hadiths and the Qur'anic verse are in it?

The questioner : Yes, but after the introduction.

Another questioner : If you allow me, O Shaykh, this style is used in Western films, and it is quoted from the owner of the recordings that every method the West used and succeeded in...

The Shaykh : Do you mean the end justifies the means?

The questioner : Yes, that is correct.

The Shaykh : This is a Jewish rule, and it is not permissible, because this means may be taken by people of desires, and they do not listen to the advice that he claimed he presented in this introduction to direct those advices from the Book and the Sunnah. The causes are many, but death is one. Support us, O professor, with your support. What do you have for this calamity? By Allah, this is the first time I have heard it.

The questioner : Sadness, sadness.
Abu Malik: Of course, and as you know, there is the trend among Muslim youth, especially those who say they are upon the methodology of the Book and the Sunnah. I do not say all of them, but I say the one who deviated from the path sees that...
