The answer

Listening to songs does not invalidate prayer, but it is forbidden and requires repentance. Singing does not increase activity; rather, it weakens it. It is the incantation of Satan and the messenger of fornication. It cannot coexist with the love of the Quran in the heart. Addiction to it is among the actions of the immoral and the heedless, and it cultivates hypocrisy in the heart.
