The limits of the phrase “musical instruments” in what is haram?
Question by ωαzgυ∂ :::>★ {ѕнσσтιиg ѕтαя}: The limits of the phrase “musical instruments” in what is haram?
“Among my ummah will be people who will make permissable al-herra, al-hareer, al-khamr, and al-ma’zif – liberalism, silk, alcohol, and musical instruments…”
[Bukhari; see Fath al-Bari, 10/51]
would that mean techno music as well?
but is it really using “musical instruments”?
just computer noises…then electronic based music isn’t haram
and still, anything could pass as a “musical instrument” if used in the right way
where are the limits regarding “musical instruments”?
couldn’t I drop a beat on my desk like a drum and come out w/something sweet?
and what about the Blue Man Group and their innovative sounds?
I’m in no way trying to make something not alright seem like it’l pass
just trying to understand here
🙂
Volume 7, Book 69, Number 494v:
Narrated Abu ‘Amir or Abu Malik Al-Ash’ari:
that he heard the Prophet 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.”
