Assalamualaikum, Hello, I'm Daud Kim
Nowadays, so many people ask me about this question in my Instagram
So I'm gonna talk about this today. The question is this. Can Muslims become K-pop idol
At first, short answer. Yes. I think it's possible. Since K-pop is really global right now
So I think K-pop Muslim member can be helpful for like marketing something
But you should know it. It's really difficult. And actually, I don't recommend you to be on K-pop idol
I will tell you why. Because Islam is not just a religion
You know, like Islam is lifestyle we have to follow. But I think K-pop is a little bit far from Islamic lifestyle
Then let's go deep inside. Why do I think like this? First, K-pop is music
Of course, different imams and different schools have different opinions in this topic
Like whether music is haram or not. But in my opinion, K-pop is not very halalious. Halalious
Is there a word like that? Because it's too addictive and powerful
So I think it makes you far away from Allah. And second is diet
You know like idols' extreme diet is already very famous. Unfortunately, Korean beauty stand wants you to lose your weight constantly
So many trainees are losing their weight with extreme diet style. I've heard that they eat one meal in one day
One meal in one day? It's worse than Ramadan fasting. If I do that, I'm gonna die
It's really dangerous. And as you know, harm your health is strictly forbidden in Islam
Am I right? Third, the concept of K-pop. You know, K-pop idols always show various types of concepts, performance every time
And this process, you should take a strong makeup. And sometimes you should wear sexy clothes
And of course, men should do it. And this is not very close to Islam, right
And the last is really important. It's about prayer. Maybe you can think, what's the problem
But you should understand Korean culture. Korea has strong rules for group life
So there are big penalties for individual actions. And I think the prayer is very personal for their eyes
So I think it will be not easy. You should understand Muslims in Korea always face prejudice and bias
Kind of. For Muslims, the purpose of life is serving Allah. And this is more important than being an idol yourself
If you want to be an idol, you can do it. But keeping your identity as a Muslim will be not easy
You should know it. Of course, I know many people love K-pop and want to be an idol
But I want you to think more carefully. So the last thing I want to say is that if you sacrifice something for Allah
Allah will always replace it something better in this life and afterlife
So don't forget that only Allah can send you to heaven. Inshallah, I hope it was helpful
