The answer

Love songs broadcast in the media are forbidden songs, and it is not permissible to listen to them in Ramadan or at any other time. Listening to them in Ramadan is even more prohibited. Listening to songs does not break a person's fast; rather, it contradicts the wisdom of fasting and its objectives of attaining piety and safeguarding one's limbs. Whoever listens to them during the daytime in Ramadan must repent and seek forgiveness. If semen is discharged due to listening, then that day must be made up. However, the discharge of pre-seminal fluid (madhy) does not break the fast, according to the more preponderant opinion.
