Is Let You Love Me - Josh Vietti halal according to Sistani?
Haram (1/5). Ayatollah Sistani's primary criterion is the 'Expert Recognition Test,' which asks if the tune type is suitable for entertainment and amusement gatherings. Although this track is an instrumental violin cover, the backing track consists of a prominent, upbeat hip-hop/R&B rhythm. An expert or common listener familiar with music would distinguish this rhythmic tune type as being suitable for, or highly similar to, the tunes played at modern entertainment and party gatherings.
Is Let You Love Me - Josh Vietti halal according to Khamenei?
Caution (3/5). Ayatollah Khamenei's framework evaluates whether the music is 'lahwī' (making people forget God and deviating them from His path) and suitable for gatherings of sin. This instrumental track lacks vocals, eliminating any concerns regarding forbidden singing (ghina) or corrupting lyrics. It does not promote sin, cause sexual excitement, or lead to dancing in its standard listening context. Because it is an instrumental crossover piece, it falls into the 'grey area' (shubhah).
