Is it okay to listen to naats which have zikr in the background?

Answer

If there is any resemblance with music or musical tones, then one should avoid listening to such naats.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
