Well, most of you already know that music is Haraam in Islam...
Assalamoalaikum wr wb! n welcomehey even i wanna get into dis...!!
8lst i wll syop listening to MUSIC*evil*..!!
music is haraam in islam...Aoa!
That's not true. The word 'haraam' is quite a serious word and you shouldn't just use it whenever you feel like it.
And if it's really haraam, you should clearly state what 'kind' of music.
jazakallah ssoooo very much..!!Assalamoalaikum wr wb! n welcome
jazakAllah
n inshaAllah... may Allah help you all, give you strength in your mission to plz Allah...and make things easy for you all...
my sincere prayers for you all!!
Jazakumullahu khairen!
Please quote the exact quotation. I have never found one.music is haraam in islam...
actually prophet may peace be upon him..has said dat all sounds lyk d one made with a guitar and drum are not allowed in islam (i do not know the exact quotation)
nd therefore nly listening to the duff is allowed..lyk d ones islamic singers USE to use..!!
so we can call music to be haraam...!!
nd yes i thnk the lyrics which singers use r also not appropriate..i mean LOVE KISS nd all..!!
so as far as i noe nd i have evn askd certain my islamic studies sir regarding dis nd dey have said it to be harram,....!!!
actually prophet may peace be upon him..has said dat all sounds lyk d one made with a guitar and drum are not allowed in islam (i do not know the exact quotation)
part on music written by one of my fav writers:
It was narrated that Naafi’ (رَحِمَهُ الله) said: “Ibn ‘Umar heard a woodwind instrument, and he put his fingers in his ears and kept away from that path. He said to me, “O Naafi’, can you hear anything?” I said, “No”. So he took his fingers away from his ears, and said: “I was with the Prophet (صلى الله عليه و سلم) and he heard something like this, and he did the same thing.”"
(Abu Dawud)
Enough said!
However, I must admit that at this point in my life, its not just because of this fundamental reason – of listening to even a flute being impermissible in Islam – that I avoid listening to music. There is a worldly reason for it as well.
That reason is that I have experienced time and again in the past ten years that when I listen to music unintentionally, such as in a public place where it is blaring, my heart starts to almost physically constrict; my soul gets agitated, and I want the “noise” to just go away. This happens whether it is an instrumental melody or a hard rock song; a pop number or a so-called soul-stirring, classical ghazal.
The reason for my aversion towards music – which, I assure you, wasn’t there at all before I studied the Quran in-depth eleven years ago – is that الحَمدُ لله - during these eleven years, I have found something to listen to that is much, much more beautiful, sublime, and powerful in its effect on my heart, mind, body and soul. So much so that any other kind of man-made music or melody sounds no less than absolute crap in comparison. Please excuse the crass-but-emphatic lingo.
I have noticed that when I do end up listening to music, it produces a decidedly detectable negative effect on my heart. The music tries to nestle into the latter and as a result, endeavors to push out the glorious words of the Quran that reside there.
The fact is: music and the Quran cannot reside together in one heart.
Try to understand this with an analogy: if you won’t get rid of the weeds and parasites in a soil, you will not be able to successfully seed, water and nurture a healthy plant in it; the filth in the soil will counter and negate the positive effects of water and sunlight needed to nourish the tender seedling to make it grow.
Or, if you won’t clean a utensil before eating food from it, no matter how fresh and great-tasting the food that you place in it might be, you will not be able to enjoy eating it because of the filth that still contaminates it.
I have heard many people who come towards Deen complain and lament that, no matter how much they try, they just “cannot” give up music. Also, they complain how, when the Quran is recited before them, they do not feel anything; that is, their hearts do not get aflutter, and their eyes are not moved to emotional tears.
The reason for this is that, as long as they do not give up listening to music, the melodies and words that this music comprises of will continue residing firmly in their hearts, and will prevent the glorious verses of the Quran along with its Divine effects to enter the latter.
That is the precise reason why they do not feel anything in their hearts when they hear the Quran being recited or the beautiful adhaan (call to prayer) sounding five times a day.
When they hear a favorite musical song, though, their ears are enticed, their hearts immediately feel inclined towards it, and they start to not just hum it, but also feel their soul attracted to it. The musical songs reside in their hearts, keep replaying in their minds, and are hummed on their tongues as they go about their daily work.
Eventually, they start to believe that the Islamic restriction of not listening to music is too “harsh” and unobservable; that music is the “food for the soul”; and that they “cannot live without music”.
Fact is, the one who has never ‘tasted’ gourmet food will continue to consider unhealthy junk food as the ultimate gastronomical pleasure!
On the other hand, the humbling and soul-stirring effect of listening to the melodious verses of the Quran, on the hearts, skins, and eyes of sincere believers, has been mentioned in the Quran itself:

The Messenger of Allaah sallallahu 'alayhi wasallam said :Ws!
This post nowhere mentions that 'Music is Haraam'. All the things mentioned in your post and the post you quoted are quite plausible. Don't label anything 'Haraam' just because you think it's haraam. It's a sin, just so you know.
Assalamoalaikum wr wb!
Well, most of you already know that music is Haraam in Islam...
This thread is for those interested to leave music...cuz once you're addicted, you might have to struggle if you decide to leave it..
Let's say we'll have points thing...like +10 if you spent the whole day without listening, and -1 for each song you heard
Lets see who gets the most points
It's like competing, may be this'll help you alll in giving up listening to music
..or may be if you got some better idea we'd do here altogether, do share ....
and not to mention, be honest
P.S. Adopted from Narcotic's idea she said something like ban music campaign, and i thought good one
And a good reminder...save yourself:
