๐ In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful
๐ From the Muslims are a special few whom Allah loves
And He guides their hearts to hate songs designed to distract.
Musical instruments and song lyrics they gave up
Because they prefer Allah, as they ditch shaytan's traps.
~•~
Their hearts are so pure that they can't absorb shaytan's tracks,
Addictive music and meaningless words that destruct
Faith and insight to distinguish what's right from what's not.
Music addicts may be prone to crimes and the dark arts.
~•~
Know that most music videos advocate and instruct:
Attachment to dunya, inflated ego, and drugs,
Sexual fluidity, gay and lesbian acts,
Checking others out and bowing down to wretched lusts.
~•~
Souls who seek Allah abstain from what He does not love.
Their hearts incline to the Qur'an, Dhikr and Du'as.
Strive not to mix good with bad, and you'll subdue waswaas.
Music can't sway those whose hearts are free from vice and rust.
~•~
If told "Music is relaxing", tell them "No, it's not."
Music makes you forget your goals, seeking Allah's Love,
And it can intoxicate you, so you breed vile thoughts.
Peace is in loving Allah, not shaytan's toys and knots.

๐ Abu 'Aamir or Abu Malik Al-Ash'ari RadhiAllahu 'anhu narrated that he heard the Prophet Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam saying, "From among my followers there will be some people who will consider illegal sexual intercourse (zina), the wearing of silk (by men), the drinking of alcoholic drinks and the use of musical instruments, as lawful (evidence that they are haraam/forbidden). 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 until the Day of Resurrection."
