Argument
Mais's singing sparked controversy
among religious people, and it was said that it was not permissible according
to the Sharia, when she grew up and was no longer a child, but Sheikh Yusuf
Al-Qaradawi issued a fatwa that it is permissible to sing it in front of men as
long as it is modest and not subject to speech, and as long as its concern is
to serve the nation's issues.
