Islamic Stance on Music [đŸ§”]

 ŰšŰłÙ… Ű§Ù„Ù„Ù‡ Ű§Ù„Ű±Ű­Ù…Ù† Ű§Ù„Ű±Ű­ÙŠÙ…

Music has been so normalized that “scholars” have even misguided people on it. May Allah forgive us and guide us, aameen.

This will be a long but informative thread on this topic, in shaa’ Allah
Ibn Masud (rAa) said about this ayah: “It is singing, by the one and only God” he repeated it 3x (Tafsir Tabari 11/61)

Ibn Abbas says the same thing (recorded in Adab Al Mufrad), so do Jabir Ibn Abdillah and Ibn Umar. As well as Ibn Abbas’ father (radhiAllahu ‘anhum)
The scholars of tafsir regarding the voice (of Iblis):

Mujahid: It is singing, flutes, distraction, falsehood (Tafsir Tabari 15/81)

Hasan Al-Basri: It’s the duff and the flute (Tafsir Samani 3/258)
Ibn Abbas said: It is singing. Upon hearing the Quran, they (the mushrikeen of makkah) used to sing and play. (Tafsir Tabari 13/82)

Mujahid also says the same thing in Talbis Iblis by Ibn Jawzi (p. 231)
Ibn Abbas said: The Quraysh would make tawaf around the kabah naked while whistling and clapping.

Mujahid said: They used to oppose the Prophet ï·ș while making tawaf by whistling and clapping, trying to confuse him ï·ș during tawaf and prayer

Ighathat Lahfan (2/274-275)
The word {Ű§Ù„Ù„Ù‡Ùˆ} is again mentioned in these verses. The sahaba said lahwal hadith is talking about music. The same word is used generally in the Quran in these verses. People look to music for amusement/entertainment, that which is forbidden.
Ibn Qasim (rahimahuLLah) said “I asked Malik (Ibn Anas) about singing. He said: Allah the Highest said: *quoted Surah Yunus verse 32*
Then he said “Is it Haqq (truth)?”

Tafsir Al Qurtubi (14/52)
Ibn Hajar completed the chain of this hadith, it was narrated by Abu Malik Al Ashari rAa.
Prophet ï·ș warns us about the bell
Prophet ï·ș warns us about drums
Similar hadith to the one in bukhari
Zina of the ears
Quran and Sunnah are clear about this issue. Now, let’s see if the 4 madhabs follow, starting with the hanafis.

“Abu Hanifa, he used to hate singing and considered it among the sinful acts. Same as Sufyan, Hammad, Ibrahim, Shabi and others.”
This was reported in Talbis Iblis p. 282 and Ighathat Lahfan 1/348

“Abu Hanifah regarding this is from the strictest opinions...
They explicitly mentioned that it’s a sin and the one who engages in it is a fasiq whose testimony is rejected... seeking pleasure is disbelief”
“Abu Yusuf said regarding a house which has music coming from it, Enter upon them without permission for forbidding evil is obligatory.” Ibid

It’s permissible to smash other people’s instruments in the hanafi madhab as Ibn Abidin explains in Hashiyat (5/575)
“The testimony of the one who sings to people is rejected because he gathering people for a major sin”

Al Bidayah by Al-Marghinani (3/137)

Malikis say the same: When Imam malik was asked, he said “only the sinners amongst us do it” (Talbis Iblis p. 229)
The same is brought by Al Sahnun in Al-Mudawwanah Al Kubra (11/421) and by Shaykh Al Islam Abu Tayyib At-Tabari in Ar-Radd ala man yuhibbus-sama (p. 30)

Dusuqi says “Listening to songs is prohibited if they incite ones desire, contain bad words or accompanied by instruments
This can be found in his hashiyat (2/327)

Shafii madhab: Shafii said, “Singing is a hated distraction. It resembles falsehood and idleness. Whoever does it a lot is foolish and their testimony is rejected.” Sunan Al Bayhaqi (10/322)
Abu Ishaq Shirazi says that it’s haram when accompanied by instruments and beating of the duff is allowed on special occasions which is the exception. Al-Baghawi says the same thing.
Ahmad Ibn Hanbal said singing makes hypocrisy grow in the heart. (Al-Amr bilMaruf wanNahi anil Munkar 164)

he also said “the flute, pipe, sorna (woodwind instrument), mandolin, lute, rebec and its likes are haram” Talbis Iblis p. 301
The third type of proof is ijma, which is also found. Al Qurtubi cites ijma in this tafsir under surah 31:6. Ibn Hajar says some scholars have relayed ijma on this issue, in Fath Al Bari - Bab Al Hiram.

Ibn Taymiyah cites ijma of 4 schools (Majmu 11/576)
Ibn Qudamah: Musical instruments such as the mandolin, flute etc are instruments of sin by consensus (Mughni 9/115)

Ibn Nujaim Al Hanafi: Al-Bazzazi reported in Al Manaqib consensus regarding prohibition of singing with an instrument (Bahr Raiq 7/89)
Other scholars such as Ibn Al Qayyim and Al-Ajurri also cited ijma. Albani rh cites ijma of 4 schools like Ibn Taymiyah.

Al-Qadhi Iyyadh went extreme and said whoever denies its prohibition is disbeliever. (Sharh Al Muntaha 9/358)

SubhanAllah
Alhamdulillah, from the information above it’s quite clear that music is prohibited. Since there is a tantamount of evidence from the Quran, sunnah along with some many citations of ijma, any speech of a mujtahid against this is disregarded, whether it’s Ibn Hazm or otherwise.
With that being said, there are exceptions to the rule. If the singing is not women to men, doesn’t contain bad words and doesn’t include instruments, it’s permissible as long it’s not excessive. And we have narrations on special occasions for women playing duff and singing.
This singing for women is only amongst themselves though. Lullabies for babies are also included in this type of singing. and Allah knows best.

That’s the end of the thread, if I said something wrong, it’s from me and shaytan and Allah SWT and His messenger ï·ș are free from it.
May Allah protect us from sin (especially that of music). May Allah grant us guidance and increase all of us in beneficial knowledge and righteousness. Ameen

[Thread: Wife Beating & Islam]
Opinions of famous classical Muslim scholars.

Imam Al-Desouki:
If the wife claims she has been beaten in transgression and the husband claims otherwise, then the wife is to be believed and the husband is to be reprehended (rebuked, 
) by the judge


Imam Al-Desouki:
And if proof for transgression is shown and the wife wants to remain with him, then the judge is to beat the husband.


Imam Al-Desouki:
If the husband believes that his wife will not stop rebelling except by beating, then he’s not allowed to beat her.

Ibn Hajar Al Haithami:
If a husband knows that beating isn't helpful, then it becomes haram.

Al-Shafi‘i:
Beating is allowed, but avoiding it is better.

Maliki opinion:
Beating is allowed ONLY if it delivers the benefit intended from it. If it doesn't, then it's haram.


Ibn Hazm:
A wife has the right to divorce herself and right to retribution (or retaliation) if her husband beats her violently.

He is not allowed to beat his wife violently even if he knows she won’t stop rebelling by no other means and...

***Thread - The current state of Ummah***
We muslims and the muslims scholars always say - the Quran is the final, complete, universal and incorruptible word of god (which is true), but why is it that our "islamic governments" fail to enforce laws based on the Qur'an...

A few days back, fornication was legalised in the UAE (which is strictly prohibited in the Qur'an)
And with saudi Arabia's suspicious activity with Israeli officials, we as an ummah are bound to ask ourselves few questions

What led to this?
Who is responsible?
What are we doing?
Does the majority of our ummah even want to do something about it?
What can be done?
Who can do it?

Q1 - what led to this?
This question has answers we all know, but we turn a blind eye towards it.
After the fall of the Ottoman Islamic khilafath we can safely say that it's secularism (Ataturk) which responsible for it...

...And that's ironic, as muslims who live in secular states vouch for the secularism mentioned in those states' constitution for the protection of their rights...

About Eid al-Adha:

In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful and Compassionate.

All praise is to Allah, Lord of the Worlds.

And the blessings and peace of Allah be upon His Chosen Messenger, the Prophet Muhammad, his family, companions, and followers.

Islam has two major holidays, Eid al-Fitr (Post-Fasting Festival) and Eid al-Adha.

The word Eid itself is an Arabic word, whose root connotation is ‘that which comes back, time after time, and rejoicing.’ Its particular usage in Islam, for the two major holidays,...

As we know, Rightwing Hindutva is the loudest proponent of the “Caste in Muslims” line.
Gullible Pasmanda activists fall for this charade while willing Quislings perpetuate it.
In this thread I give a rebuttal to each point of fitnāh made by this man.

#Thread #PasmandaPolitics


Lie!
This is not an assertion of superiority but a genealogical frame merely tracing descent.
Nor is it comparable to Caste as institutionalised and practised by Vedic Brahminism.

NB: The Prophet (S.A.W.) in fact first took up arms against his own tribe, the Quraish.


The Quran is clear:
“He has ordained for you of religion what He enjoined upon Noah and that which We have revealed to you, [O Muhammad], and what We enjoined upon Abraham and Moses and Jesus - to establish the religion and not be divided therein...”

Surah Ash-Shƫrå Quran 42:13

The fact is, the Quran and The Prophet (S.A.W) lay great stress on the characteristics of superiority being righteousness and piety.
Tribal (again, not comparable to the caste system) membership did not denote superiority in religion.
This is a basic difference from Casteism.


What amateurs!
A fatwa is a non-binding legal opinion.

She said that her feet should be on his head. Shiva accepted her prayers. It is because of this Thumba flower is placed in the head of Shiva Linga.

Sri Mridanga Saileswari Temple Muzhakkunnu, Kannur KERALA

The temple is established by Parasurama and it is one among 108 Durga temples.
Devi will answer all the prayers of her devotees who pray to her with utmost devotion lighting the ghee deepam.


It is the family diety of Kerala Varma Pazhassi Raja.
Devi is present in three forms Kali, Saraswati and Lakshmi.

Legend...👇
Once a Mridungam ( musical instrument) shaped rock fell from heaven here.
@SriramKannan77


Devi originated in the form of Mridangam and Parasurama captivated the essence of Devi into a Vigraham. Vigraham is made of Panchaloham.
Kathakali, an art form of Kerala originated here.


Temple Vigraham was stolen 3-4 times, but because of power of Devi all the attempts were failure. Police records says that Whenever the thieves try to steal, they lose their senses, and they will be in a confused state. So they will abandon the idol.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND YAJNA

Fire is, of course, one of the greatest discovery of mankind. Our control over the fire dramatically changed the entire human habits; earlier it was used to cook food, protection from animals and to stay warm.


Among the many applications of fire, one is Yajna (à€Żà€œà„à€ž, yajña); also called as Havana (à€čà€”à€š) or Agnihotra (à€…à€—à„à€šà€żà€čà„‹à€€à„à€°).
Yajna is elaborately described in Yajurveda. In Yajurveda, Yajna is the greatest among all works (Karman). One can purify his /her soul by performing Yajna.

In Vedic culture, it is thought that the holy fire is the mediator between Gods and us; when the offerings are made to Yajna with chanting mantras, it directly reaches the Gods, who bless the people with rains, food, health, and good luck.

According to Apastamba Sutra, the definition of Yajna is Vedic sacrifice; an act by which we surrender something for gods e.g. grains (Anna), pulse, milk and milk product (ghee, butter, curd) fruits, plant juice (soma), etc.

As we said; Yajna is the contact medium for gods and

to seek their blessings.

There are many types of Yajna performed by Hindus for e.g.,

1. Rajsuya Yajna
2. Ashwamedha Yajna
3. Chaaturmasya Yajna
4. Vaajpey Yajna
5. Purushmedha Yajna
6. Sarvamedha Yajna

Rani Chennamma of Kittur was one of the first women rulers of India who fought against the might of the British Empire in 1824. Rani Chennamma was born in 1778 in a small village of Kakati in Belgaon distt of the State of Karnataka.


She was born into the Lingayat Community to a man named Dhulappa Desai. From a very young age she was trained in horse riding,sword fighting, archery and diplomacy. At a very young age of 15 yrs, she was married to the King of Kittur and became the Queen of Kittur.


It is said that King of Kittur Mallasarja was once moving around in the neighbouring kingdoms to find support to fight Tipu Sultan. It is then, when he came across Chennamma and he immediately got attracted to her sheer confidence and bravery.

Rani Chennamma and King Mallasarja had a son together who died very soon after the death of King Mallasarja in 1816. As the Queen of Kittur, Rani Chennamma immediately adopted Shivalingappa as her son and declared him the heir to the throne of Kittur.

This did not go well with the British East India Company who was enforcing the Doctrine of Lapse those days, according to which the adopted children of the Indian rulers were not allowed to become their heirs and if the native rulers did not have children of their own, their...
