Evils of Music & the Music Industry - Hasan as-Somali

Here is a khutbah that was delivered at Germantown Masjid over 6 years ago, on the 9th of October 2015 by Hasan as-Somali (hafidhahullah Ta'ala).

It was posted on their official SoundCloud account about 2 years ago.

Listening to songs is prohibited (harām) due to the saying of Allah:

وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَن يَشْتَرِي لَهْوَ الْحَدِيثِ لِيُضِلَّ عَن سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ وَيَتَّخِذَهَا هُزُوًا ۚ أُولَٰئِكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مُّهِينٌ – 31:6

“And of the people is he who buys the amusement of speech to mislead others from the way of Allah without knowledge and who takes it in ridicule. Those will have a humiliating punishment.” (Luqmān: 6) The “amusement of speech’ is singing as was explained by a group of the Sahābah such as Ibn Mas’ūd (radiyallāhu ‘anhu).

There is a hadeeth reported in Saheeh Al-Bukhāri (no. 5590) that the Prophet (salallāhu ‘alaihi wasallam) said: “There will be a people at the end of time who will make permissible fornication, silk (for men), wine and musical instruments ―Allah will cause the earth to swallow them up.” The Prophet (salallāhu ‘alaihi wasallam) put musical instruments alongside fornication, wearing of silk for men and the drinking of wine (alcohol) ―all of these things are harām. So this proves that music is harām ―that includes musical instruments and singing. (See Al-Jāmi’ fī Fiqhil-‘Allāmah Ibn Bāz, p. 1203)

Allah stated: “And of the people is he who buys the amusement of speech to mislead others from the way of Allah without knowledge and who takes it in ridicule. Those will have a humiliating punishment.” (Luqmān: 6) Ibn ‘Abbās said: “It refers to singing.” (Tafsīr At-Tabari) Hasan Al-Basrī: said: “The verse was revealed concerning flutes and singing.” (Tafsīr Ibn Kathīr) Ibn Mas’ūd said: “By Allah besides whom there is none worthy of worship, it refers to singing.” And he repeated it three times. And the same was reported from Ibn ‘Umar. (See Ighāthatul-Luhfān of Ibn Al-Qayyim)

Shaikh Al-Albānī explained that the hadeeths forbidding musical instruments are clearcut without ambiguity, except for the simple drum that is played by women at weddings or on ‘Eid. The Four Imāms: Abu Hanīfah, Mālik, Shāfi’i and Ahmad are in agreement upon this forbiddance. (See As-Saheehah 1/145) [www.abukhadeejah.com]

It has been digitally edited to clean up its quality and increase its overall volume, walhamdulillah.

With that introduction, go and listen to this extremely beneficial audio, barak Allahu feekum!

Khomeini & Some of the Filth of the Shi'a - Abu Uwais Abdullah Ali

Here is a brief, yet beneficial benefit from a lecture by Abu Uwais Abdullah Ali (rahimahullah Ta'ala) titled: JIHAD - The Misconceptions Cleared.

Before listening to the following audio, read the following Ahadeeth:

In this clip, he (rahimahullah Ta'ala) highlights some issues related to the filthy beliefs held by the Shi'a in general and Khomeini, specifically. Highlighting the fact that the greatest enemies of the people of Sunnah, throughout history, have been the Shi'a. These people have constantly aided the Kuffar against Muslims.

Your Parents Desire You to be Better! - Mustafa George

On the 4th of September 2026 a khutbah was delivered by Mustafa George (hafidhahullah Ta'ala), titled: Advice for Back to School.
 
How often do we think that our parents don't care about us?  We often claim that they are oppressing us and stopping us from achieving our goals and ambitions!  The reality is, in many cases, that couldn't be further from the truth!

The Search for Truth - Abul-Hasan Malik

This is a lecture that I found on the Ahlus Sunnah Fort Wayne official YouTube channel.

In it, Abul-Hasan Malik (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) presents this detailed study into the religion of Islam, drawing upon not only religious scripture, but also the statements of well-respected scientists like Albert Einstein amongst others. He also draws heavily upon research studies on issues such as adultery in the United States, all of which point to the validity and justification of Islam in western society.

It has been digitally edited to remove a lot of the excessive background noise, walhamdulillah!

Refutation of the Qur'aniyoon - Raha Batts

In this audio Raha Batts (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) gives a beneficial reminder and lesson on the Qur'aniyoon and their falsehood. Showing that from the Qur'an they claim to follow, it refutes them! He also goes on to show how much we need the Sunnah as well to understand the Qur'an, and apply the legislation such as salaah, sawm, wudhu and the like. A very beneficial lesson indeed.

It has been taken from the Mixlr account of Markaz Anas and digitally edited before being posted below, walhamdulillah.

Waseelah - Shaykh Badee Uddin Shah

Shaykh al-Albaanee (rahimullah Ta'ala) said:

The people are in great confusion about the matter of Tawassul and its rulings in the religion, and they greatly differ concerning it, some declaring it lawful and others prohibiting it, some going to extremes and others being over-lenient. Also, a large number of the Muslims have for centuries been used to saying in their supplications such things as: 'O Allah by the right of your Prophet...,' or 'by the right of the Sacred House... forgive me.' and '0 Allah by the right of the Awliyaa and the pious, and so and so, etc.' or 'O Allaah by the honour of the men of Allah to You, and by the honour of those in whose presence we are, and under whose assistance we exist?, relieve us and the distressed from all distress.' Also: 'O Allah we humbly beseech You with outstretched hands, seeking a means of waseelah to You through the one deserving of waseelah and intercession, that you aid Islam and the Muslims. ' etc. They call this 'waseelah' and they claim that it is permissible and something prescribed in the Sharee'ah and that it is affirmed and prescribed in a number of Aayat and ahaadeeth, indeed that these texts order and encourage it. Some people even go so far beyond bounds that they even allow tawassul to Allah, the Most High, through some inanimate objects from the creation that do not even reach the level of the aforementioned, such as graves of the Awliyaa, metal structures built upon their tombs, and earth, stones and trees found nearby.

They claim that whatever is near to those who are honoured itself becomes honoured, and that the honour which Allah bestows upon the occupant of a grave passes on to the grave itself, so that it becomes a means of Waseelah to draw nearer to Allah thereby. Indeed some of the later people allow directly seeking aid from others besides Allah! So, what is Tawassul" What are its types? What is the meaning of the Aayat and the ahaadeeth which mention it? And what is the correct ruling for it in Islam? [End quote]

Here is lecture that deals with this subject matter, by Shaykh Badee Uddin Shah (rahimahullah Ta'ala) that deals with this subject matter. It is a lecture that is at the least over 30 years old.
