A Shi’ite hadith depicts Muhammad saying: “And the person with the [sin of] singing (al-ghina’) will be raised [on the day of resurrection] blind, deaf and dumb. The person with [the sin of] adultery, of wood-wind, and of drum will also be raised in the same way.” And: “Whoever listens to the entertainment (song and music), lead will be melted inside his ear on the day of judgment.” (As-Sayyid al-Khu’l, al-Masa’ilu ‘sh-Shar’iyya, vol. 2, p. 22.) And: “Singing and music are enchantment for adultery.” (As-Sayyid al-Khu’l, al-Masa’ilu ‘sh-Shar’iyya, vol. 2, p. 23.)
“Music events canceled in southwest Iran after cleric blames concerts for drought,” Iran International, January 22, 2025 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
After a cleric attributed the lack of rain to concerts, the Islamic Republic’s local religious-ideological department canceled all music events in southwest Iran.
The Friday Prayer Imam of Abadan, a city known for housing the Middle East’s oldest oil refinery, recently criticized the granting of concert permits, calling them sinful and claiming that music events anger God, leading to a lack of rain.
Following Abdolhossein Ghobishavi’s statement, the provincial ideological department canceled several concert permits for February, according to local media reports.
This move contradicts an order from President Masoud Pezeshkian’s administration, which has instructed all official bodies and ministries not to block music events.
Since the establishment of the Islamic Republic in 1979, most forms of music have been banned from state television and radio….

I’m glad that the Mullahs and Ayatollahs see the connection between music festivals and drought, praised be Allah. It is only through their divine guidance that Iran will eventually come out of their drought-stricken months, since the laymen, including the scientists, are incapable of drawing that connection.

CCS = Tap Turns on the Water 🤔… What a idiotic backward statement, how super thick is Islam 🤣

Ah, division. What will the president say about his orders being canceled?
࿗Infidel࿘ says
Wonder what they’ll say when there still won’t be rainfall in Iran, even after the music stops?
somehistory says
I thought the “day the music died” was way back in the 1950’s. The ghouls of iran are playing catch up.
Westman says
Really childish, like skipping down the sidewalk, chanting, “Step on a crack and break your mother’s back!”
If there was an “Allah”, who, by the way, never came, and instead, sent a space alien to Muhammad, “We” as it refers to itself, would have ended the Iranian regime long ago. It seems to always claim to be merciful yet lends its authority to terrorists, torturers, and murderers.
And now that Islam is inferior in power to the unbelievers, what does it do? Wars among its own. kicking against pricks.
Walter Sieruk says
In that terribly oppressive Islamic tyranny of Iran there is no tolerance for the lighthearted thing in life . As
there is no room for festive activities , music concerts. dancing, happiness fun or humor..
For example, Ayatollah Khomeini had declared “The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There can be no…joy in whatever is serious.” [1]
[1] THE ISLAM IN ISLAMIC TERRORISM by Ibn Warraq page 348.
Walter Sieruk says
History has a tendency to repeat itself , as seen in the following examples.
First, there was that horrendously evil and murderous jihadist bombing at a music concert in the city of Manchester, England on May, 22, 2017 in which 22 people had been murdered and many more severely injured, most of the victims had been young girls and young women.
Then on October, there was those horrific murders by the jihadists of Hamas at a music festival in the State of Israel on October 7, 2023 in which 260 young people had been viciously murdered by those jihadists, who also committed many other many other Islamic atrocities.
Now just this year on March 22,th. on the outskirts of Moscow at another music concert there were more jihadists shootings and mass murders in which 137 people had killed by Muslim terrorists of ISIS in their jihad and at least 145 more people had been harmed.
Islam, which its jihadists hates music dancing and it also, hates people. It hates them to death.
Ernie says
So Israel is not to blame this time ? Isrsel did not steal the rain ? I’m shocked !
Troybeam says
Islam making sure there is no joy and happiness in life. No music, no art, no dance, no laughing, no gatherings zip zap zero nothing but the obedience of sharia law and the Imam’s constant rulings to destroy the basic human nature to sing, dance, enjoy art and gather together.
James Lincoln says
So, the Islamic Republic of Iran is not blaming this on the Jews?
Troybeam says
That comes next, always the excuse.
