Have a listen to this reminder from Abu Suhailah 'Umar Quinn (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) regarding something most of us have in our homes. It is like a family member to may of us. We spend a lot of time with it and also spend a lot of money to support it. In the time of the salaf they would talk about singing and would give it many names, having consensus in it being impermissibility.
Here, he (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) labels it as the "stupid box".
