What is the ruling on creating a website that discusses the types of popular songs (their content) without providing links to these songs?
If folk songs are free from禁忌 (haram) like musical instruments and indecent lyrics, then there is no harm in creating a website to introduce them. However, if they contain any objectionable elements, it is not permissible to create a website to introduce them, even without links, because that would be an indication of them and an encouragement to listen to them.
