Answer 7

Saudi Channels are owned by Government and they are not strict Salafis anyway. Salafi's have their own Channels like Al-Majd, Al-Huda etc which are with zero music and with zero woman either in sound or picture. Scholars have ruled the Music to be Haram according to many Hadeeth. But we can see people driving louded musics in their cars or mobile phones in Saudi Arabia. I got sad to see even in Madina Munawwara. This is because the efforts of Imaan are little in Saudi Arabia in general. The common people get rare chances of a company of a good scholar or a sincere good speech from the heart which get their Imaan increase that makes them obey Allah (s.w.t) and His Rasool (s.a.w)

Answer 8

hypocrites...they're hypocrites

Answer 9

The position of the Salafee scholars is that Music is Haraam.

Shaykh Muhammad bin Ibraaheem Aal ash-Shaykh rahimahullaah said that this action undertaken is not Kufr, but it's a sin.

Many people in Saudi Arabia will disagree with the Ulemaa due to their desires and lack of knowledge.

There is a conscious that many people know that it's Haraam but they still enter into it. This is not hypocrisy and all the answerers who keep describing this as Nifaaq need to seriously fear Allaah because accusing a person of Nifaaq is a major sin. When a person sins knowing it's a sin then it's not Nifaaq, it's fisq.  

Answer 10

hypocrites

its simple as that

Answer 11

Saudi Arabia doesn't have much to do with Islam...

=/

That once holy place has been corrupted.
