The answer

If the website contains forbidden songs, it is not permissible to direct people to it, because "the one who points to evil is like the one who commits it." And whoever calls to misguidance will bear the same burden of sins as those who follow him, in accordance with the Prophet's saying, "Whoever calls to misguidance will bear a burden of sin equivalent to the sins of those who follow him." And Allah, the Exalted, says: "That they may bear their own burdens in full on the Day of Resurrection, and some of the burdens of those whom they misguided without knowledge. Unquestionably, evil is that which they bear." And His saying, the Almighty: "And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression."
