Hawzah News Agency –  How do you define ghinā’? Is it just the human voice or does it cover the sound of musical instruments?

Answer: Ghinā’ is the voice of the human being, which is produced in a rise and fall pattern and suitable for the gatherings of lahw and sin. It is ḥarām to engage in this type of singing; as well as to listen to it.
