Question
A scholar says that according to Ibn Hazam and Shawkaani music is permissible. Please comment.
Answer
Even if Ibn Hazam and Shawkaani said that music is permissible, our Shariah is not what they say. We follow Muhammad Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam), not Ibn Hazam and Shawkaani. Anyone whose views are in conflict with the Shariah, is rejected. This subject has been explained in detail in the book, SAUTISH SHAITAAN (THE VOICE OF SHAITAN)
