But, even in their view, singing and playing ofinstrumental music are included therein.,,,, 'And in another verse of the Qur'an: ;I,L&Y (those who do notwitness falsehood - Al-Furqan, 25:72), the word: ... (az-ziir: falsehood, thefalse) has been explained by Imam Abii Hanifah, MujZhid, MuhammadIbn al-Hanafiyyah and others as 'ghina (singing and playing ofinstrumental music).And AbE DZiwCd and Ibn MZjah in Sunan and Ibn HibbZn in hisSahih have reported from SayyidnE AbE MElik al-Ash'ari & that theHoly Prophet said:Indeed some people from my community will drink wine givingit a name other than the name it already has. Music will beplayed right on their faces with instruments and singingwomen in attendance. Allah Ta'ala will make the earth sinkwith them, while He will make some of them monkeys and pigs.And according to a narration from Sayyidna 'AbdullZh Ibn 'AbbZs&,the Holy Prophet said, "Allah Ta'ZlE has forbidden wine, gambling,drum and sarangi (string instrument like violin) and he said, "Everythingthat intoxicates is haram (forbidden, unlawful) [Reported by Imam Ahmad,Abu Dawiid and Ibn Hibban]It has been reported from SayyidnZ AbE Hurairah & that the HolyProphet $!$ said:When spoils are taken as personal property and trust property
as spoils and ZakZh as penalty, and religious learning isacquired for worldly objectives, and when man starts obeyinghis wife and disobeying his mother, and keeps his friend nearand his father far, and when voices rise in mosques and thechief of a tribe becomes its worst sinner and when the chief of apeople becomes their lowest of the low and when wicked peopleare respected out of fear for them, and when singing girls andmusical instruments appear all over and when wines of all sortsare consumed and when the later of this Ummah start cursingthe former - then, at that time, you wait for a red storm, andearthquake, and the sinking of the earth, and themetamorphosis of figures and faces, and missiles, and the signsof Doomsday following each other, one after the other, like abroken necklace with its beads scattered simultaneously.(Reported by Tirmidhi calling it a Hasan-Gharib Hadith)A Warning Not to Be Ignored!Read the words of this Hadith again and again, and you will startseeing a blueprint of the world of our time spread out before you. Here isan advance warning given by the Holy Prophet $& almost fourteenhundred years ago, against sins prevailing among Muslims, and whichare increasing day by day. He has reminded Muslims that they have toremain vigilant against such conditions and take full precautions to avoidsuch sins both personally and socially. Otherwise, once these sins becomeaccepted common practice, such sinners will be visited by Divinepunishments. Then, the very last signs of Qiyamah will appear squarelybefore them. Since, the singing of women and the playing of musicalinstruments are included under those sins, this narration has been citedin the present context.For that matter, there are many more authentic AhZdith wheresinging and playing of musical instruments have been declared unlawfuland impermissible. Severe warnings have been given against indulgingin these. This humble writer has cited all these narrations in his treatiseentitled: $1 -3 2 d ' which is in Arabic and has been publishedas Part V of AhkZm ul-Qur'an. Only some of those have been given here.Reciting morally beneficial poetry in a good voice withoutmusical instruments is not prohibitedIn contrast to what has been stated above, there are narrations that
