Dear uploader,

I subscribed to your channel a while ago under the impression it was a Muslim channel and would therefore uphold Islamic values. Of course we all believe and agree with saving and preserving the environment but Music, which is haram (forbidden) is present. Please consider in future uploads.

Salam.

Earth Hour is only good if it were done for the sake and pleasure of Allah, and Allah alone. It is for the sake of Allah that we care for and nurture what He has blessed s with, the earth. The idea of saving the planet should not be the main point here as whether you like it or not, one day this earth and all that is in it will return to dust. It will not last forever but our intentions for Allah will. Please spread this message to all Muslims celebrating and supporting Earth Hour.
