is music haram?

[amee_patla_na]

from what I know, music is just disapproved, not downright forbidden. just percussion is 100% legal in Islam.

but like Anisa said, as long as it isnt anything explicit, there shouldnt be anythn wrong with it.

Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) mentioned, ‘When singing girls and musical instruments becomes common, wait for red winds, earthquakes, the earth swallowing people, disfiguring and many more punishments.’ (Mishkãt 470)

yeah, now you know why brahmaputra swallows you every year!!

[jonasyh]

As for men, it is not permissible for them to play any kind of musical instrument, whether at weddings or on any other occasion. What Allaah has prescribed for men is training in the use of instruments of war, such as target practice or learning to ride horses and competing in that, using spears, shields, tanks, airplanes and other things such as cannons, machine guns, bombs and anything else that may help jihaad for the sake of Allaah.”
