Question
An Alim said that once Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) attended a wedding where the women were singing and a musical instrument (a calabash) was also used. According to this Alim, some kind of music on a wedding occasion is permissible.
Answer
The person whom you call an 'aalim', is actually a JAAHIL. That is why he digs out narrations to mislead people and to cast them into the fitnah of shaitaaniyat. This so-called 'aalim' is an agent of Iblees. Do not listen to the talks of jaahils who take people far from Allah Ta'ala, and direct them to Jahannam under deeni guise. The question of the total prohibition of all kinds of music has been explained in detail in our book, Sautush Shaitaan (The Voice of the Devil).
