Is Alam Bardar | Nadeem Sarwar | 2022 | 1444 - Nadeem Sarwar halal according to Sistani?

Halal (5/5). Under Ayatollah Sistani's framework, the core test is whether the tune type is suitable for entertainment and amusement gatherings. 'Alam Bardar' is a Noha (funeral dirge/mourning poetry) whose tune type is exclusively recognized by experts and the public as a medium of grief and lamentation. It is completely distinct from tunes used in entertainment gatherings. Furthermore, the vocal delivery does not constitute 'ghina' (forbidden singing) because it is not expressed in tunes common to entertainers. Sistani explicitly permits religious praise and lamentation sung with a good tune as long as it does not adopt entertainer styles.

Is Alam Bardar | Nadeem Sarwar | 2022 | 1444 - Nadeem Sarwar halal according to Khamenei?

Halal (5/5). Ayatollah Khamenei's framework prohibits music that is lahwī (deviating from Allah and promoting carelessness) and suitable for gatherings of sin. 'Alam Bardar' is a highly spiritual elegy that draws the listener closer to Allah and the virtues of the Ahlul Bayt (a.s.). It does not contain any of the five forbidden categories of entertainment (such as sexual excitement or promoting indifference to religion). Under Khamenei's rulings (Q1137 and Q1138), religious chanting, revolutionary anthems, and mourning elegies using non-lahwī tunes are highly permissible and recommended.
