Listening to Iranian songs

Question

I would like to know if listening to Iranian songs like Ya Mahdi and salaam farmonde are allowed in shariah?

Answer

For a person who is not around, the word 'Yaa' should not be used. When you talk about Iranians it is possible that it is mixed with shiasm. So don't ever cross lines with this, as your beliefs can be eroded and corrupted.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
