- Evidence of prohibition of music and singing in the Quran and Sunnah
Allah says in Surah Luqman (interpretation of the meaning):
“And of mankind is he who purchases idle talks (i.e. music, singing) to mislead (men) from the path of Allah…” [Luqman 31:6]
The scholar of the ummah, Ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: this means singing . Mujahid (may Allah have mercy on him) said: this means playing the drum (tabl). (Tafsir al-Tabari, 21/40)
Al-Hasan al-Basri (may Allah have mercy on him) said: this ayah was revealed concerning singing and musical instruments (lit. woodwind instruments). (Tafsir Ibn Kathir, 3/451)
Al-Sa’di (may Allah have mercy on him) said: this includes all manner of haram speech, all idle talk and falsehood, and all nonsense that encourages kufr and disobedience; the words of those who say things to refute the truth and argue in support of falsehood to defeat the truth; and backbiting, slander, lies, insults and curses; the singing and musical instruments of the Shaytan; and musical instruments which are of no spiritual or worldly benefit. (Tafsir al-Sa’di, 6/150)
Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
“The interpretation of the Sahabah and Tabi'in, that ‘idle talk’ refers to singing, is sufficient. This was reported with sahih isnad from Ibn 'Abbas and Ibn Mas’ud. Abu’l-Sahba said: I asked Ibn Mas’ud about the ayah (interpretation of the meaning), ‘“And of mankind is he who purchases idle talks’ [Luqman 31:6]. He said: By Allah, besides Whom there is no other god, this means singing - and he repeated it three times. It was also reported with a sahih isnad from Ibn ‘Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that this means singing.
There is no contradiction between the interpretation of “idle talk” as meaning singing and the interpretation of it as meaning stories of the Persians and their kings, and the kings of the Romans, and so on, such as al-Nadr ibn al-Harith used to tell to the people of Makkah to distract them from the Quran.
Both of them are idle talk. Hence Ibn 'Abbas said: “Idle talk” is falsehood and singing. Some of the Sahabah said one and some said the other, and some said both. Singing is worse and more harmful than stories of kings, because it leads to zina and makes hypocrisy grow (in the heart); it is the trap of the Shaytan, and it clouds the mind. The way in which it blocks people from the Quran is worse than the way in which other kinds of false talk block them, because people are naturally inclined towards it and tend to want to listen to it.
The ayat condemn replacing the Quran with idle talk in order to mislead (men) from the path of Allah without knowledge and taking it as a joke, because when an ayah of the Quran is recited to such a person, he turns his back as if he heard them not, as if there were deafness in his ear. If he hears anything of it, he makes fun of it. All of this happens only in the case of the people who are most stubbornly kafirs and if some of it happens to singers and those who listen to them, they both have a share of this blame.” (Ighathat al-Lahfan, 1/258-259)
Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
“[Allah said to Iblis:] And befool them gradually those whom you can among them with your voice (i.e. songs, music, and any other call for Allah's disobedience)…” [al-Isra 17:64]
It was narrated that Mujahid (may Allah have mercy on him) said: “And befool them gradually those whom you can among them with your voice” - his voice [the voice of Iblis/Shaytan] is singing and falsehood.
Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) said: “This idafah [possessive or genitive construction, i.e., your voice] serves to make the meaning specific, as with the phrases [translated as] “your cavalry” and “your infantry” [later in the same ayah]. Everyone who speaks in any way that is not obedient to Allah, everyone who blows into a flute or other woodwind instrument, or who plays any haram kind of drum, this is the voice of the Shaytan. Everyone who walks to commit some act of disobedience towards Allah is part of his [the Shaytan’s] infantry, and anyone who rides to commit sin is part of his cavalry. This is the view of the Salaf, as Ibn ‘Abi Hatim narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas: his infantry is everyone who walks to disobey Allah.” (Ighathat al-Lahfan).
The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:
“Among my ummah there will certainly be people who permit zina, silk, alcohol and musical instruments…” (Narrated by al-Bukhari ta’liqan, no. 5590; narrated as mawsul by al-Tabarani and al-Bayhaqi. See al-Silsilah al-Sahihah by al-Albani, 91)

His old videos were very clearly against it all....may Allah swt guide him iam a great fan of his videos they are very relatable.. but the video in question was quite disturbing for me as well....jazakAllah sheikh Uthman for addressing
Please tell me who, why and on what rulings do we base from our core knowledge; why on earth do we choose to live in non Muslim societies. Who ever is born in a Muslim country, why flock to those countries.
There are only 2 to 3 core categories.
Ones from non Muslim countries and have to live as Muslims there is totally different categories.
who's 'we' bro
but generally speaking I think it goes back to lack of morals and as you know we Muslims get our morality from Allah alone combine that lack of morals with the lack of blessings there are in our lands whether it be due to corrupt rulers or what not people just reach the conclusion: "I will immigrate to provide better/the best living conditions for my family" and I may remind the Muslims it was never about that, it was never about living a lavish life nor provide such living condition to your family because we are promised better in paradise.
"The disbelievers will never be satisfied with us unless we follow in their footsteps" keep that in mind whenever leaving for a non Muslim land
My conclusion from this is that music is still not haram, but many forms of it are - arguably the most popular forms.
Music has the power to psychologically help people with dementia, it has the power to convey great messages to people and empower them. Music has many benefits.
You can say “well Quran could do all those things and do so better”. This maybe so, but that shouldn’t make this meaningful music i just described, haram.
What is haram is VAIN talk. What is haram is IDOLIZATION of anything other than God I.e. fans idolizing Taylor Swift.
But this doesn’t make the concept of music itself haram.
And the fact that there is a strong debate on this is proof. The Quran is clear on what it forbids us.
Narrated Abu 'Amir or Abu Malik Al-Ash'ari:
that he heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, "From among my followers there will be some people who will consider illegal sexual intercourse, the wearing of silk, the drinking of alcoholic drinks and the use of musical instruments, as lawful. And there will be some people who will stay near the side of a mountain and in the evening their shepherd will come to them with their sheep and ask them for something, but they will say to him, 'Return to us tomorrow.' Allah will destroy them during the night and will let the mountain fall on them, and He will transform the rest of them into monkeys and pigs and they will remain so till the Day of Resurrection."
@@jasonthemuslim652it depends if you take it in the context of the entire teachings of Islam and Quran, or out of context. He was referring to specific culture. What about these hadith.
Bukhari 949
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) (p.b.u.h) came to my house while two girls were singing beside me the songs of Buath (a story about the war between the two tribes of the Ansar, the Khazraj and the Aus, before Islam). The Prophet (p.b.u.h) lay down and turned his face to the other side. Then Abu Bakr came and spoke to me harshly saying, "Musical instruments of Satan near the Prophet (p.b.u.h) ?" Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) (p.b.u.h) turned his face towards him and said, "Leave them." When Abu Bakr became inattentive, I signaled to those girls to go out and they left. It was the day of `Id, and the Black people were playing with shields and spears; so either I requested the Prophet (p.b.u.h) or he asked me whether I would like to see the display. I replied in the affirmative. Then the Prophet (p.b.u.h) made me stand behind him and my cheek was touching his cheek and he was saying, "Carry on! O Bani Arfida," till I got tired. The Prophet (p.b.u.h) asked me, "Are you satisfied (Is that sufficient for you)?" I replied in the affirmative and he told me to leave.
Bukhari 952
Abu Bakr came to my house while two small Ansari girls were singing beside me the stories of the Ansar concerning the Day of Buath. And they were not singers. Abu Bakr said protestingly, "Musical instruments of Satan in the house of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) !" It happened on the `Id day and Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "O Abu Bakr! There is an `Id for every nation and this is our `Id."
@@Orcaboy Bro can you differentiate between singing and music ? If yes , then you can justify the claim?
The exception to music is during medical conditions and other things when needed ,in this matter it is not disputed ,as you said ,it is a disease and music helps to cure them then its good but listening to it in general is haram.
But how can something haram EVER be good? Is this the case with anything else in Islam?
One could say if you drink anti-freeze, the cure is to immediately drink ethanol I.e. alcohol.
But alcohol is explicitly mentioned in the Quran as with benefits, but the problems outweigh the benefits, so avoid because humans are weak minded and will be slaves to it. As it evident with society.
But for music no such distinction is made whereby it is forbidden. Rather, the context of it’s use alongside haram activities is.
Eg. Go to a night club; people drink, fornicate etc - and do so to certain kinds of music.
Bob Dylan writing songs about liberation of slaves and the poor etc, inspiring generations to do better for their fellow human.
There is a distinction here.
Useless amusements- at best is a vague term - the Quran is never vague about halal/ haram. No one goes to Hadith for halal/ haram. You know that - say it

Simple music Haram in Islam
Dr Zakir naik ki video dekh ly
Please prove from the Quran that music is Haram. You are going on about halal !
We don't use the Quran only, there's Hadith too (in case you didn't know)
Did you actually listen with ears or did u listen with opinion
@@quinnodwyer594 I listen carefully to all sides of a discussion. I base my opinion on reason not on the person . Those whose reasoning is faulty use sentences criticising personally
Do you know my beloved brother in Islam every thing that takes away you from your creator is haram. So I don't think so music takes you close to your creator.☺️ Do some research my boy. 😊
@@abdullahmanj8878 May I remind you my dear brother that the gift given to Dawood( A. S) was of music which used to bring joy to the mountains and the birds. May I remind you that the joy of listening to Qirath , the recitation of our Quran is music . Does this take you away from Allah’s remembrance ? Of course those aspects of music which fall under fahashi are forbidden because of the vulgarity - not because of the music itself

Why don't you just migrate to Afghanistan? It'll give you way more Islamic life, no distractions. Isn't it shameful to prioritise dollars over Islam?
