Hi, Mohid!

What do you mean by the word "haram", please? Do you really mean the word "harm"?

Thanks!

Perhaps this should be moved to the Islam board.

This post brought to mind a few radio interviews I've heard on NPR from Muslim musicians who talk about their music and their faith.

Here are a couple of related stories on NPR. Make sure to search within their site; I know there are several stories that could help you to answer this question for yourself.
