Salam brothers and sisters, what is the ruling for people that listen to a song that has swearing, and sang along the lyrics. For example, before this I listen to a song, the lyrics is something like this :

'My death swear is only for you' (to a girl)

What is the ruling on this ? 1. I know that this is wrong because as I know swearing is only made in the names of Allah. 2. What if I utter the words along with the lyrics, does that mean I am swearing and have to pay kafarah although I have no intention to swear?

Thank you, anyone could answer my question.

  • Isn't listening to Music by itself considered as haram by a majority of scholars? What's the use of asking for any type of Music/Song texts a special question. If the ruling applies to the main act than specifying is unnecessary.

You only have to pay Kaffarah for an oath on Allah.

But, what you have done is very sinful:

He who swears by anyone or anything other than Allah, has indeed committed an act of Kufr or Shirk' (Tirmidhi)

You should sincerely repent, and avoid the situation again.
