Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
"Singing is of two types: permissible and forbidden. Listening to forbidden singing is a sin and a burden that exposes its perpetrator to Allah's wrath and punishment. Whoever commits a forbidden act and does not repent is exposed to torment in the Hereafter. As for this world, sins cause darkness in the heart, blackening of the face, deprivation of sustenance, affliction, and misery."
