I aint no scholar or alima but i personally think its still not allowed coz of the songs meaning.

If u luk at nasheeds the words concentrate on loving Allah (swt) n the holy prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam (Peace and Blessings be upon him) plus on the other side its dhikr (rememberance) at the same time.

Normally songs r bout luv, life n all sorts..if u r married most songs can b pointed towards ur husband but wat if ur nt married.... :roll:

its sumthin to think bout..insh'Allah i will refer this question 2 sum1 wid betta knowledge then me.

I just sayin wat i fink :roll:

"Duniya toh badalti rehti hai...Ey mere Quaid tuh kabhi Na badal janaa"

I agree with Mujahida, bollywood lyrics have useless meanings however i personally think few songs do have lyrics (only few) which can make you think about Allah (swt) and the Holy Prophet (saw). However most songs like mujahida said are to do with this worldy love and lust which reminds you of this world so one should avoid it.

Now listening to naats/nasheeds etc is most defnitely the best way to lose your self in the thoughts of Allah (swt) and the Holy Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam (Peace and Blessings be upon him) and to gain their love.

thanx u2 i thought the same thing but my aunt who is an alima said its allowed, but her teachers said it isnt, i learnt it isnt when i went to boarding school so i was getting baffled

Actions speak louder than words!

adila apa said its allowed...i dont believe it kuri, u joking right? she was pretty strict, as far as i know singing without music is HARAM..

according to some people everything is HARAM :roll:

and according to some everything is HALAL.

I think generally singing songs like those bollywood ones are rong, but I think I heard from som1 that if it is saying nice things between husband and wife then it is permitted to increase the love between them.

Its like poetry, some of it can be heavy stuff but its permitted to say what we call ''love-talk'' with the wife, infact it is encouraged. We have been told by Nabi salallahu alayhi wa sallam to the effect that be gentle with the women before you fulfill your needs and not to be like the camel. I feel shy to say, but basically before relations and infact even after Holy Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam encouraged tenderness between husband and wife.

In this light saying nice things to YOUR WIFE is rewardworthy. Lol. urdu is full of such couplets

Ya ALLAH Madad.
Haq Chaar Yaar

i cant say whether its right or wrong, nor will i

much depends what that music does to you

if it makes you wanna get wet n sing n dance in a field....clearly not allowed.

if you can listen to it and not effected, which believe me isnt easy, then it MAY be ok........

it depends what they talk about .........today its idolising whats haraam in this world

like angel and mujahidah, i prefer to avoid it as nasheeds and naats are much better and everytime i sing along its praising the beloved Rasul Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam (Peace and Blessings be upon him) and dhikr of Allah (swt)

that urdu poetry/couplets/ghazals/etc is some good stuff.......but pretty deep and u gotta have an understandin 4 it IMO

The Lover is ever drunk with love;
He is free, he is mad,
He dances with ecstasy and delight.

Caught by our own thoughts,
We worry about every little thing,
But once we get drunk on that love,
Whatever will be, will be.

a little song can bring joy and lift the spirits, it can be harmless fun and innocently naughty, i think the Appa is on the right track

i little bit of material fun which is totally innocent can help some people concentrate and take up religious activities and bring enjoyment in them too

there are many people in this world that need cheering up and this is one way to do it, and once cheered up they can do all sorts of good

am i talking rubbish or what?

lil sis the wheels on the bus isnt really a song! its a nursery rhyme and all kids get taught it..and were discussing bollywood songs here not nursery rhymes..i cant remember the last time i sang wheels on the bus or baa baa black sheep!

Actions speak louder than words!

Salam

In Islam there is nothing wrong with listening to music and singing as long as lascivious motvies are absent.

If a musical number does not lead a believer to lechery then God has no problem with it.

Omrow

well said Omrow but i just wasnt brave enough to say its alright with Allah

i see SO singing bollywood songs is orite its allowed, i've known it to be wrong,can anyone PROVE to me..show some evidence its allowed, coz if it is i'd be more than happy to sing along

It depends on the lyrics, if they remind u of wrong things then its not awrite, (which is what majority of the songs promote)

yeah, what angel said

depends on what the music does to you and what they talk about

but you need to prove something ISNT haraam before you can call it haraam, not the other way around

He is free, he is mad,
He dances with ecstasy and delight.

good point

God only tell us what we CANT do

he dont tell us what we CAN do

so i await for the fatwa proving songs TOTALLY haraam at all times

Salam

Well, we can excuse the stupidity of naj.

He likes to place burden of proof on the accused.

hey! i dont think naj is being stupid!
she's just telling you guys what we were taught in jamia!

and this is the reason i started this thread,coz in jamia the rules + regulations + fatwa's were very strict, and a few of them i dont agree with!

well u can see what has been discussed

SOME people classify it as being haraam-yet no evidence has been provided

rest say it depends on lyrics/situation

my opinion is that it is gay-not haraam

Salam

Well, Masti girl, its the people who say that a particular thing is UNLAWFUL, it is those people that need to get off their butt and show that the thing is indeed unlawful.

It is NEVER up to the people who do something to prove that their action are lawful.

This is not Russia. This is Britain. GREAT BRITAIN.

God !!

Women !!

nope i dont see the contradiction

unlike some extremists i dont use the words "haraam" or "halaal" in my post

btw the concenscus is that EVERYTHING is halaal in islam until it is clearly proven as being haraam

but the backwards people-as usual do this backwards

they see everything as being haraam and want people to prove that its halaal :roll:
