Is The Light - Juice WRLD halal according to Sistani?
Haram (1/5). Applying Sistani's Expert Recognition Test, the musical tune type of 'The Light' is a highly polished, upbeat, and rhythmic pop-rap melody. An expert in these matters would easily distinguish this tune type as being suitable for, or similar to, the tunes used in entertainment and amusement gatherings (such as commercial clubs, parties, and secular radio). Under Sistani's framework, the psychological effects of the music (e.g., whether it relaxes the listener or arouses lust) and the positive nature of the lyrics ('God on my side', rejecting drug binges) are completely irrelevant to the ruling.
Is The Light - Juice WRLD halal according to Khamenei?
Likely Haram (2/5). Applying Khamenei's Lahwī Assessment, the song is evaluated holistically. Musically, the track features an upbeat, highly rhythmic, and danceable pop-rap production that is characteristic of secular entertainment. This musical character leans toward a lahwī nature (suitable for gatherings of amusement and vanity). Lyrically, the song contains positive elements, such as the explicit rejection of drug binges ('Some people get hurt and give the drugs a binge') and casual sex ('No love in one-night stands'), alongside a spiritual acknowledgment ('I got God on my side').
