Is Art Deco - Lana Del Rey halal according to Sistani?
Haram (1/5). Grand Ayatollah Sistani evaluates music through the Expert Recognition Test: 'Is this tune type suitable for entertainment and amusement gatherings (majālis al-lahw wal-la'ib)?' (Book 46, General Rules, pp. 258-260). Sistani's criterion is strictly structural and conventional: an expert evaluator assesses whether the tune type is of the sort commonly utilized in commercial entertainment venues, clubs, or parties.
Is Art Deco - Lana Del Rey halal according to Khamenei?
Likely Haram (2/5). Ayatollah Khamenei applies a 3-component assessment: determining whether the music is (1) lahwī (causing deviation from Allah and moral virtues), (2) mutrib (inducing a state of mental rapture or loss of self-control), and (3) suitable for gatherings of sin and vanity (Official Q&A 1121, 1123, 1131).
