1. Music
This is a long debate, we must have seen that some of scholars are calling it Halal while others are calling it Haram, to counter this, we have added Zakir Naik’s stance about this matter;
Furthermore, we can see the authenticity of prohibition here in Al-Jaamius Sagheer

4. Eating or Earning Interest
Riba (Interest) is never allowed in Islam because it is a system that makes poor the poorest and rich the richest!
5. Men wearing Silk and Gold
Silk and Gold are Haram on Men. Because these two things are attributed to women only, and Islam prohibits Men from being like Women, and Women from being like Men.
6. Masturbation
In today’s world, when the internet is easily accessible anyone and search and watch anything, which is a trigger to this addiction. Masturbation has a negative impact on your health, this is why Islam prohibits it for every Muslim and labels it as Zina! We also talked about the Ways to cure Masturbation Addiction.

10. Forcing your Wife

Literally every Muslim knows these, what world are you living in?
there are still people who doesn’t know this u know
haram
There is no need to be mean not everyone knows these things like teenagers these days
Not every muslim knows these look at the generation we are in these kids have been addicted to doing haram and they dont realise it
I listen to music everydqy and I pray and do all the Muslim things but I listen to music with lyrics and I don’t wanna stop well I can’t it’s addicting
u know u could listen to the lyrics just only good lyrics with out music
that’s what I do
assalamu alaikum, i just saw this comment and it reminded me of what my teacher once told me and i wanted to share it. My teacher once said ” If you want to but the price of this life and sell the price of the second life, do what you want but dont regret it later.” It’s like your selling sheep for one bag of wheat you need to use for a party , yes you can make bread at the party but one everyone has eaten you’ll realise it’s a one time thing. However the sheep you sold could’ve got you wool and cotton and more sheep, it’s a bad deal really. So i hope you make the right decision.
Exactly same with me , besides. Music makes me feel good and feel free.
just make sure it is clean lyrics with no inappropriate actions or words. I listen to music too.
Many people i know are the exact same as you say, but this is wrong. When the sahih hadith of the prophet عليه الصلاة والسلام told of the prohibition, you need to remember in Surah Al Ahzab 33:36
It is not for a believing man or woman—when Allah and His Messenger decree a matter—to have any other choice in that matter.[ Meaning, if Allah makes a ruling in the Quran or the Prophet (ﷺ) makes a ruling, then a Muslim is not allowed to seek judgment from anyone else, nor follow their own desires.
You should not voice your opinion on whether it helps or does not help you, Allah سبحانه وتعالى knows best and we should follow what he has taught us through the quran and the prophet عليه الصلاة والسلام.
I had the same problem as you a few months ago. I had hope and prayed and i prayed. I did a research what happens when you listen to music and the punishment you get from it. Alhamdullilah i finally got over music. If i get the urge to listen to music again i put on one of my favorite nasheeds. You should maybe try looking for some nasheeds you love, that keeps you calm etc.
If you can stand before Allah on the Day of Judgement with an honest and clear heart then continue what you are doing. But know that music and Qur’an can never exist in the same heart without one expelling the other. So you may be praying, only Allah knows, but if you are listening to music everyday, where does the Qur’an come in?
you should stop because even if you pray and do everythig that everymuslim does, your good deeds are not counted. its haram
Thanks for telling me about other haram things
When it comes to riba we only talk about taking interest. We don’t talk about giving, as it will create a lot of problems I know. Because most of us bought our houses and cars and other things on interest but we have the excuse that we don’t take it but we give it. Often times we forget to mention that our beloved prophet said giving and receiving riba is the same crime. May Allah SWT give us the ability to stay away from RIBA.
By the paying of usury (“interest”) one “enables” (a popular psycho-speak term) the sinner. Justifying this by, “he’s going to commit the sin anyway,” is self-deception.
Today it is difficult in first world countries to live without using credit cards. To avoid paying usury, pay the charges off the same day that they post. Charges can be paid typically in two days following the day that the charge was made. Find out what day “snapshots” are made for each credit card; pay charges off the day before each card’s “snapshot” is made. This means that each card should not be used within three or four days of the “snapshot” date. Keep your credit usage below 1%, never pay late, and your credit rating will rise to a high level, 750+. You may not want credit, in harmony with the will of God, but a high credit rating gets you lower insurance premiums, lower rent, and so on.
This is basic stuff that most people know
“most” is not everyone.
this is amazing
we need to learn islam deeply without islam we are empty.
im sorry but i dont agree with the music point, ofcourse you should listen to music with clean lyrics, but music in general are not haram, music or melodies are the roots of the quoran, tajwid is a great example of beautiful melodies and singing, islam is a religion of moderacion, so things shouldent be black or white, there is haram music ( that includs vulgar words and dances), but there is a lot of halal music, witch is even healthy for you.
Yeah, a lot of the arguments against music are that it distracts from worship at best and leads to haram things at worst. Yet, many of the same people who argue this seem to have no problem with TV dramas or social media, which tend to be far more distracting.
The Thing is that musical instruments are haram, but vocal only is allowed.
Yes! Only duff is allowed
Asalamualaikum. ..well said..Sukran
You can’t understand why music is haram please watch sahil adeem (pakistani scholar)videos i hope will understand. Even science prove that how music create negative impact on your personality.
depends on the type of music.It could very well be that listing to music like cardi b where she is on about some next haram thing could b haram.
The music which lead away from remembrance of allah and his rasool is haram, the music which will increase concentration towards to allah and his rasool is halal. in of the hadith- few children read tala badru alayna with duff so this is also music instrument so from this hadith ulama derived to use instrument in nasheeds and qawaalis and it is halal. otherthan if you listen music of lady gaga or any songs which will take you away from teaching of islam it is haram.
some time few songs like for independence of the country or some songs in the respect of mother or father or children etc these are allowed
Ofc, music is strictly haram. If you see music halal for yourselves, than you should also see yourself thrown into the hell fire as well.
Music, is like everything, can be positive and negative. Depends of kind of music. Everything in the world must to be with moderation. The extreme is no good in nothing. Remember that everything in the world have some kind of música, the sea, the wind, the birds, etc. the son of some praying have music, only you must to see the things in that radical poin of view. We have inteligente to used, and thinking.
It leads to “excessive involvement with entertainment”. Playing musical instruments and singing is haram. The evidence is the quaran, if Allah says that it’s haram then it is period. No excuses.
Read Quran with Urdu translation then you will know !!
You must know the occasion about flute, when Prophet PBUM listened to someone playing flute. That describes well if music is halal or haram. Do research by yourself rather than going on blind traditional things.
music is haram my friend, theres no way of you trying t prove the prophets words wrong. please rewatch islamic vids and read sahih al bukhari
Ment Musim sorry*
That is correct music is not haram, it is haram when it contains bad words.
According to you
Only Duff Music is allowed. No any other music instruments.
but let’s not take the risk of listening to music, better safe than sorry!
Listening to music is like eating a snake. Don’t spread this lies, don’t make anyone sin.
I shall keep this in mind forever. 🙂
im happy i learned these things
Alhamdulillah
May Almighty Allah keep guiding us to the right path and let us have a successful ending ameeen
But so many fellow Muslim in my country speculate on property, buying many investment properties making houses too expensive for poor people! And also they invest in stockmarket. They seem to be obsessed with money. Many of stockmarket “gurus” on the internet I see encouraging others to invest and earn interest on shares and houses are muslims! Is this not riba, is this not haram?
ty 4 sharing this its very useful
Most welcome 🙂
Hello thank you for having a nice page from reyaan
All religions are man made control systems islam is no different
not really you need to educate yourself SMH
About hitting isn’t hitting someone out of self defense permitted in Islam? After all and with all due respect I feel it’s double standard or hypocrisy that someone can hit you for nothing and you can’t hit back even if you use reasonable force against him or her.
Haniya Hassan has done a good job by focussing Halal and Haram Things based on Glorious Quran
I’m a new Muslim, is it still haram if I listen to songs with positive affirmations?? By the way I’m 12
I agree that Tatoos are Haram. Even nail polish is Haram due to that you cannot wulhoo if you wear nail polish.
🙁
Serious
Pau solder del afar is wrong music is haram
Thanks for being able to help others to not performing haram
Really an eye opening…. then there should be no banks in Islamic countries. They should not be listening to any music, then why there are beautiful ladies dancing in islamic countries? I do not get it.
if you commit suicide you will be in hell forever even though you are muslim
i love islam
