Is it forbidden to listen to the national anthems of Hezbollah, given that they use various types of musical instruments, or to listen to the anthems of Imad Rami, where the drum is used?

If national anthems and jihadist anthems are accompanied by musical instruments (except for the duff for women), then listening to them is forbidden. This is the view of the majority of jurists, and among their proofs is the saying of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him: "There will be people from my Ummah who will legitimize illegal sexual intercourse, silk, intoxicants, and musical instruments."
