Is it permissible to have nasheed singing in a Musjid?

Question

Is it permissible to have nasheed singing in a Musjid?

Answer

A Musjid is a place of ibaadat. It is not a place for merrymaking. It is not a hall for haraam singing and acting. It is not a venue for singing nasheeds. Singing nasheeds in a Musjid is haraam. Also singing nasheeds to entertain people is haraam even if the venue is not a Musjid. In fact, Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said that among the signs of Qiyaamah is: "The raising of voices in the Musjid". Even conversation in a Musjid is not permissible.
