Following are excerpts from an interview with Lebanese Shiite cleric Sheik Hassan Ghandour, which aired on Al-Jadid/New TV, on November 13, 2011:

Interviewer: Singing is forbidden?!

Hassan Ghandour: Yes. The kind of singing prevalent in our Arab region and even in Europe…

Interviewer: Even among men?

Hassan Ghandour: Yes, even among men. Singing is categorically prohibited.

Interviewer: Any Muslim who sings is violating a prohibition?

Hassan Ghandour: Yes, undoubtedly. All the kinds of singing that we encounter on the streets are specifically prohibited.

You can set off a car bomb in a crowded marketplace, but we better not catch you singing!

Oh sure it’s prohibited unless it’s the videos streamed over Al Jazeera of jihadis chanting the praises of snipers killing our boys in Iraq.

That’s ok.

One day it will all come to a swift and terrible conclusion. No quarter asked, none given.

This guy is a total nutcase. Singing is a gift from God. This guy and his running dog lackeys are acolytes of the Anti-christ.

Muslim roommates from Iran in the early 70’s told me that singing about god was forbidden, but secular music was OK. I would find that my Christian 8 tracks had been listen to, while I was out of the house. Meaning rearranged and a different 8 track in the player when I would returned.
