Is Listening To Music Haram Or Maqruh?
Bhai لطیفے بازی mtlb kaise kya jhoot h
aisi latifay bazi jis main gandi baatain hon
Very interesting observation about the bukhari 5590 Hadith that the word used is not “Zina” but “Hir”. However what evidence do we have that the word “Hir” actually means sexual/reproductive organs rather than be another word for “Zina”? Furthermore I think the word “Muazzaif” does not mean musical instruments in Arabic rather the correct translation would be the same as the word in Urdu “aalaat e moseeqia”. the most accurate translation for Muazzif in Urdu would be “koi Bhai bajanay wali cheez” as it comes from the word “azf” which simply means to play/fiddle with in Arabic. Hence anything which is played upon can be Muazzif be it a table, door or any other everyday object for drumming, hands for clapping/ whistling or even playing around with your vocal cords for beat boxing/Acapella. What advice would you have to deal with those people who are inclined towards a particular ideology (will not take the name here) who are adamant that it is 100% Haram and won’t leave you alone until you agree with them? Asking as I unfortunately find myself surrounded by such people.
