Why is it that people think diffrent about music in islam

[Farhiya]

Aslamu alaykum

First of all i'd like to say hello to all my brothers and sisters in islam, im new on this forum but im already loving it, and i hope i'll learn a lot in here InshaAllah,

i have been looking through the topics and found this section about nasheeds
now i thought i can ask a question that i have been asking myself for a while,

i always thought music is haram, and also everything with instruments, so now i only listening to those nasheeds that dont use intruments in the background.
but a little while ago i was talking to this person i work with and he told me not every kind of music is haram there are intruments that are allowed and those nasheeds with instruments in the background are halaal

Well since we are both not way too sure i would like to know what you people think and i hope ya'll can help me with this.

Are there instruments that are halaal?

And is there a line in the quran sayin that music is haram?

hope you can help me InshaAllah
thank u.. wa salaam

Farhiya:D

[palestine]

I know that drums are allowed.

[ImaanSeeker]

some scholars allow the duff. But other than that, no other instruments are allowed and that includes other types of drums.

any music with instruments is haraam without question.

Music & Singing

What does Islam say about Music and Singing?

Question # q-12513589

In the name of Allah, Most Compassionate, Most Merciful,

The worst-case scenario in the event of being inflicted with a disease is when the one involved refuses to believe that he has been inflicted with that disease. The way this phenomenon is accepted and recognised in diseases and illnesses that affect the physical body, it is also true with regards to spiritual diseases and ailments.

When a person commits a sin (May Allah save us all) believing that a sin is being committed and feels regret and remorse in the heart, then this is far better than committing the sin and believing it to be lawful (halal). In the former situation, only one sin is being committed, and it is very likely that the individual may repent out of the remorse felt in the heart. In the latter case, however, in addition to the sin being committed, there is the greater sin of trying to justify it. Normally, such an individual does not receive the guidance to repent from his sin. (May Allah save us all, Ameen)

Music and Singing

The case with music and unlawful singing is the same. It has been decisively prohibited in Shariah, as the evidences mentioned further along will illustrate. Yet there are individuals who are not ready to believe that it is unlawful (haram).

In the modern era, music has spread to such an extent that nobody is free from it. Individuals are confronted with situations where they are forced to listen to music. It is played nearly in all department stores and supermarkets. If you sit in a taxi, make a phone call or even walk down the street, you will not be saved from this evil. Young Muslims drive around in their cars with the music fully blasted. The increasing popularity of music, which is prevalent in our society, poses a great threat to the Muslims.

Music is a direct ploy of the non-Muslims. One of the main causes for the decline of the Muslims is their involvement in useless entertainment. Today we see that Muslims are involved, and at the forefront perhaps, of many immoralities and evils. The spiritual power which once was the trait of a Muslim is nowhere to be seen. One of the main reasons for this is music and useless entertainment.

Jazakallah Khayr for the beneficial article on that link....it clears up a lot of misconceptions.

The scholars of today encourage anasheed, however they layout conditions, such as no instruments and no imitating any instruments. they also allow the Daff on occasions such as in the battlefield, 'eid and weddings.

asaalamu allaykum wa rahamtullahi ta 3ala barakaatu. al hamdulilah, wa saalatu wa saalamu 3ala rasoolilleh. Sister, or Brother, im not sure of your gender, in any case. In islaam, we have something called daleel ('evidence'), and for whatever reason a person speaks , wheather it be from thier mind or narrating from someone else, this person should bring daleel/proof for what they are saying, evidnece either from qur'aan and or the sunnah. So this person who said that not all instrumental music is haraam, ask him , "Show me a proof either from the qur'an and or the sunnah for what you are saying?" SHOW IT TO ME! If he or she has none, thats that then, dont take it. If she has daleel for it, which is impossible, becuase there is no daleel for it to be quite franq with you: ) , then you would take it ofcourse. Otherwise anything that comes from his or her mind and they thereof provide no proof or evidence for what they say, then you should refuse it. Unless it is a scholary opinon on a matter (a.k.a Ijtihaad). So ask them 'bring the evidence'?! SHOW ME! otherwise no! dont take it! yeah! dont take it! :| I will give you one hadeeth now, which proves that instruments are forbidden in islaam, except for the case for the DUFF which is only allowed for women in wedding celebrations and only on that certain occassion, and thats it, becuase there are reports that the wives of sahabaa radhiallaho 3anhom use to play the duff at such times of marriage. Anyway..Rasoolullah sal allahu 3alayhi wa salam said: "THERE WILL BE A TIME IN MY UMMAH WHERE THEY (the people) WILL ALLOW THE FOLLOWING: SILK (for men), ALCOHOL, ZINA, and INSTRUMENTS for music." This hadith strictly proves that instrumental music is clearly fobidden, no matter what the subject of the song be, notice rasoolullah s.a.w.s mentions together instruments along with one of the major sins, and that is ZINAA (Adultery) and Khamr (Alcohol), SUBHANALLAH wa adhobilleh! la ilaaha illa ALLAHU wahdaho laa shareekala. Hope its of benefit. wal hamdulilah rabbil 3alamin. wa sallamu allaykum wa rahamatullahi wa barakatoo. : ) It is reported that one Sahaabi narrated; "Whatever they give you from thier own selves (meaning not either from the qur'aan nor the sunnah) , then you can urinate upon it."

ALLAHU AKBAR!
