Is it halal to perform music or dance at concerts for a living?

many ways more fits it's it's quite fitting with that whole uh akatan thing of you know of statues having that that even though monotheism was there but there were still certain statues and stuff like this um it's interesting because that's when the Pharaohs would go out they would take a mobile kind of Holy Temple with them not a temple but a holy um a mobile Temple unit which would kind of move around and this is exactly what this holy of the holies and the Ark of

the Covenant becomes uh in Judaism so it's like H you know there's nothing like we can't seem to relate to it because of our understanding of toed and everything it's but I hope that's helped okay but that was a good question mu mm abduli you're doing it abduli you're doing it would it be Halal to perform music or dancing at a concert would it be okay to make a living off it is it the same for men and

women Scandal huh Scandal this one so hidden hater huh hidden hater look dance in and of itself is not Haram but obviously there are sociocultural perspectives and um influences on on giving value to certain things so

certain cultures don't really see dancing as a in fact I suppose now it's a bit different here because certain dancers or singers it's not so much dancers but it's more so the singers or movie stars the celebrity culture has become a very because it's become an incredibly elitist um you know multi-million dollar culture so it's naturally now superimposed on it that Prestige but otherwise in and of itself many people don't see it as like they might see as okay you neutral but they don't

necessarily see as something like prestigious and um yeah so I I would say and I think Muslim cultures more so don't like it and they see it kind of even if they don't deem it haram some of them do and some of them don't but even if they don't they see as like a a lowly profession like something they don't see as a profession which to be fair I you know I can kind of understand uh I'm not saying it's Haram it's not Haram but I don't and then again there are people who are professional choreographers and dancers and it is a

profession but I can see I can see that you know that certain people won't see you know it's like oh he a dancer AA neurosurgeon that's what it is astrophysicist that's uh so it's not it's not really it's always an uphill struggle especially in Muslim cultures so I would say you you must keep that um in in mind and the problem is you see

with women doing it obviously because nowadays a lot of dance especially for women involves a sensuality to it so that will be looked down upon even more uh so you know you do have to I think just keeping you know propriety in in place even if it's not a Haram Halal issue keeping these things in you know knowing that that this is how people will still see H and the problem as well in many societies you have to remember dancing women were often I'm not saying

it is the case now but they were you have to remember for hundreds of years in the Muslim world uh the prostitutes generally were dancers so even the whole NOAB elitist culture in India Muslim India or in uh uh in the Middle East that a lot not I'm not saying every prostitute was always a dancer but the the the general kind of uh the ca kind of um phenomenon was where people would go and a woman would dance and she would be a professional dancer and she would

sing and everything but she would then be also up for other forms of gratification now you have to I'm not saying that's the case today um definitely isn't in case somebody goes up and makes a proposition goes well your honor I'll tell you where this began it began with Monday nights with Muti I sat down to take I was taking notes your honor and I thought let's apply some of this F so no that's not look it's not

um the case however it you one must take into consideration that centuries of a mindset is going to be there in that Muslim Community yeah that so yeah and the rest it's your life do whatever the hell you want but yeah I wonder uh let's see what are some of these comments because I get a heart attack and what's that maybe not
