O Muslim, lawful things have good attributes,
Where is the good in singing, dancing and listening to flutes?
Can we compare the words of singers and sounds of Musicians,
To the Glorious Quran, its lessons, wisdoms and admonitions?
How many singers do you know and give admiration,
And how many do you know of the companions and the following generation?
How much do you spend on singers from your dollars?
Compared to how much you know of Islamic Scholars.
Do you see how much is memorized of Music songs?
While you ignore the book to which memorization belongs?
How much do you memorize of these incantations?
And swayed back and forth in intoxication?
Have you not seen those who follow the misguided?
And increase the loudness of the Music, when they should hide it?
And who writes their songs? Thinkers, or men of academia?
Or maybe scholars, like Ahmad, Malik or maybe ibn Taymiyah.
Oh you who listen to music
Don’t you see that all the songs of the world and all the lyrics you’ve seen,
Wouldn’t compare in reward to Alif Laam Meem-Kamal El-Makki
Think about it. Music has become such influence in our lives that literally have we forgot that it's the simple form of distraction that could easily poison our souls. I know it's hard, I know we can't help but to hear it all the time wherever we go. But at least try. I know I have my own many guilty pleasures in the form of music, but I know I must try. Well, the least you can start is by listening to a more religious genre of songs. So be it, in the form of Maher Zain or any Islamic artist. At least you won't be mind-boggled later if Allah SWT ask you why you continue on listening to such imprudent things in Mahsyar. TRY. I know I will. Inshaa Allaah.
