This is just one example, but there are dozens of cases of targeting music
concerts only in Saudi Arabia, without providing a single verse from the holy book.
I wonder these critics of Saudi religious scholars are openly support the extremism of the Khawarij, as embodied by groups like the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, al-Qaeda, the Taliban, ISIS, Lashkar-e-Taiba, Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, Al-Shabaab, and many others and whose prime victim is no one else what Muslim population?
I fully support Saudi Arabia's progressive policies, which align with the true spirit of Islam as evidenced in the Holy Quran.
The video in question—depicting a music concert—is being twisted into part of a terrorist narrative, which to end people's personal choices and state should imposed on them in the name of religion by depriving their right to entertainment by falsely declaring dance, music, and concerts are forbidden in Islam. Yet, these critics fail to produce even a single verse from the Quran to support such a prohibition.
The real issue is that extremists exploit mosques—not just as places of worship, but as platforms to peddle their politics of hate and division. They promote ideologies of anarchy, totalitarianism, gender apartheid, and religious bigotry, often using Gaza as a rallying cry. Many of their propaganda videos are AI-generated, designed to mislead and radicalize Muslims, including those in Saudi Arabia.
Does X uphold policies against such hate speech, disinformation, and promotion of extremism?
I speak from personal experience as a victim of these extremists. In September 1994, my human rights conference at Westminster Central Hall in London was targeted. I have endured multiple crimes: held at knifepoint by four assailants in an attempted assassination, repeated break-ins at my home, office, and vehicles (dozens of times), and constant threats to my life. To this day, not a single case has been resolved by the police. Worse, smear campaigns and disinformation have been spread against victims like me, ensuring our stories are dismissed and ignored.

I reproduce my message in Arabic on X in reply to to the extremists along with English translation. I also reserve the right against X either to prove its allegation or I will seek legal advice.
This is an example of abusive language used by these guys
yet X allow them to promote their hate messages.
علماء المملكة العربية السعودية يسيرون على الصراط المستقيم من الوسطية والرحمة والسنة الصحيحة، بعيدين كل البُعد عن درب الخوارج المظلم، أولئك المتطرفون الذين حملوا فكرًا مكيافيليًا قائمًا على العنف بلا رحمة، وورثه عنهم الإخوان المتأخرون والطالبان والقاعدة وداعش وكثير من المتعصبين الذين يلبسون الحقد الديني والعنصرية الجنسية ثوب الدي
والقرآن الكريم يردّ على تحريفاتهم الدموية بأوضح بيان، يقول الله تعالى في سورة المائدة (آية ٣٢):﴿مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَٰلِكَ كَتَبْنَا عَلَىٰ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنَّهُ مَن قَتَلَ نَفْسًا بِغَيْرِ نَفْسٍ أَوْ فَسَادٍ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَكَأَنَّمَا قَتَلَ النَّاسَ جَمِيعًا وَمَنْ أَحْيَاهَا فَكَأَنَّمَا أَحْيَا النَّاسَ جَمِيعًا﴾هذه الآية العظيمة ليست هامشًا، بل هي قلب رسالة القرآن النابض: حرمة النفس البشرية مطلقة، والسلم هو الأمر الأصلي من الله. أما الحرب فإنما تكون آخر الدواء، مقيدة مشروطة، لا مُفَخَّر بها ولا مُتَغنَّى بها. والقرآن يصف نفسه مرة بعد مرة بأنه «شفاء ورحمة» (١٧:٨٢)، و«هدى وبشرى» (١٠:٥٧)، ويأمر النبي وأتباعه: ﴿ادْعُ إِلَىٰ سَبِيلِ رَبِّكَ بِالْحِكْمَةِ وَالْمَوْعِظَةِ الْحَسَنَةِ﴾... إن ربك هو أعلم بمن ضل عن سبيله وهو أعلم بالمهتدين
وأما الموسيقى والغناء وإيقاع الفرح، فهي منسوجة في نسيج الفطرة التي فطر الله الناس عليها. قبل أن يسمع الجنين صوت العود أو الدف، يرقص في رحم أمه على دقات قلبها المستقرة (وهي أول موسيقى)، ويهتزّ مع حركتها اللطيفة (وهي أول رقص). ثم إذا أردنا إننامته بعد الولادة غنّينا له وهززناه ليعود إلى ذلك الجو الرحيم الذي خُلق فيه فيسكن وينام. وفي عصر النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم كان الصحابة يرتّلون الأناشيد في الأسفار، واستقبلته فتيات الأنصار بالدف والغناء وهن يقلن: «طلع البدر علينا»، ورأى النبي الحبشة يلعبون بالحراب في مسجده فرحين، فتبسم وقال: «تريخوا يا بني أرفدة» مشجعًا على فرحتهم. لم تكن هذه استثناءات، بل كانت سنة حية من الفرح والتوازن والشكر للذي جعل الجمال والإيقاع آيات من رحمته. فلا يجترئ متطرف على تحويل الإسلام إلى دين حرب دائمة وكراهية وكآبة. إنما جاء القرآن ليرفع الأثقال، وينشر السلام، ويحفظ الأنفس، ويملأ القلوب نورًا وموسيقى. من اختار درب الخوارج فقد اختار معاداة القرآن نفسه، أما طريق النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم وعلماء الأمة السائرين على المنهج الوسطي قديمًا وحديثًا فهي طريق الرحمة للعالمين، والعدل بلا قسوة، والفرح بلا إسراف
ذلكم هو إسلام محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم
ذلكم هو إسلام القرآن
وذلكم هو الإسلام الذي سينتصر بإذن الله على كل تحريف مظلم
Translation into English
Scholars of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia walk on the straight path of moderation, mercy, and the correct Sunnah, far removed from the dark path of the Kharijites—those extremists who carried a Machiavellian mindset based on merciless violence. This was inherited by the later Ikhwan (Muslim Brotherhood), the Taliban, Al-Qaeda, ISIS, and many fanatics who cloak religious hatred and gender-based racism in the garb of religion.
The Holy Quran refutes their bloody distortions with the clearest statement. Allah Almighty says in Surah Al-Ma'idah (verse 32): "Because of that, We decreed upon the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul unless for a soul or for corruption [done] in the land—it is as if he had slain mankind entirely. And whoever saves one—it is as if he had saved mankind entirely." This great verse is not marginal; rather, it is the beating heart of the Quran's message: the sanctity of human life is absolute, and peace is the original command from God. As for war, it is only the last resort, restricted and conditional, not to be glorified or sung about. The Quran describes itself time and again as "a healing and a mercy" (17:82), and "guidance and good tidings" (10:57), and commands the Prophet and his followers: "Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good instruction..." Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who has strayed from His way, and He is most knowing of who is [rightly] guided.
As for music, singing, and the rhythms of joy, they are woven into the fabric of the innate disposition (fitrah) upon which Allah created people. Before the fetus hears the sound of the lute or the tambourine, it dances in its mother's womb to her steady heartbeat (which is the first music), and sways with her gentle movements (which is the first dance). Then, to lull it to sleep after birth, we sing to it and rock it to return it to that merciful environment in which it was created, so it calms and sleeps. In the era of the Prophet, peace be upon him, the Companions would chant anthems during travels, and the girls of the Ansar welcomed him with tambourines and singing, saying: "The full moon has risen upon us." He saw the Abyssinians playing with spears in his mosque in joy, so he smiled and said: "Carry on, O sons of Arfida," encouraging their happiness. These were not exceptions, but a living Sunnah of joy, balance, and gratitude to the One who made beauty and rhythm signs of His mercy. No extremist dares to turn Islam into a religion of perpetual war, hatred, and gloom. Rather, the Quran came to lift burdens, spread peace, preserve lives, and fill hearts with light and music. Whoever chooses the path of the Kharijites has chosen to oppose the Quran itself. As for the path of the Prophet, peace be upon him, and the scholars of the Ummah who follow the moderate methodology, ancient and modern, it is the path of mercy to the worlds, justice without cruelty, and joy without excess.
That is the Islam of Muhammad, peace be upon him.
That is the Islam of the Quran.
And that is the Islam that will triumph, by Allah's permission, over every dark distortion.
