    Am i committing a sin?

    Report bad ads?

    warhmatulahi wabarakathu my brothers and sisters!

    I just need your advice and help insha Allah, i've recently found a job (yipeee) but it's not all good because where i am going to be working (insha Allah) they listen to music 24/7 and im scared it might effect my imaan. It's a part time job so music shouldnt be pumping in my ears all day long but still there is always a possibility when the shataans around. :rant:

    Am i committing a sin whilst working in such an environment? And how can i make sure my imaan stays strong insha Allah?

    I always have music playing while I'm working on a computer. Always have, always will. Classical or instrumental music is especially good to work to.

    I used to work in a place where they played music all day and it was annoying more than anything else. I think you'll just get sick of hearing the same songs again and again, and having an Islamic aversion to music I don't expect you'll be tempted to listen to more.

    But hey, that's just me guessing.

    Peace

    Jazhka Allah khair Akhee, do you think it would be okay for me to do zhikar whilst the music is on? I'll try my best not to pay any attention to it but would i be allowed to recite the kalimah and stuff?

    musik is an intoxicant which once gone inside your head is veeery difficult to get out. Let me ask you, do you suddenly start a tune in your head out of nowhere? that is one of the causes of this "intoxicant".

    Hello Czgibson!

    Aha! cool, i guess it's okay for you to listen to music but im sure you know a muslim doesn't listen to music, so that's why im a bit worried! Yeah i agree with you about music being annoying lol.

    Peace!

    If you mean when I compose music, yes, that's pretty much how it works.

    If I've heard a tune recently or someone mentions some lyrics from a song then it might start going around my head for a bit. It's quite unusual for a tune to start playing in my head out of nowhere, although I can consciously will a tune to start playing in my head and then I'll have it as background music to whatever I'm doing.

    I can play three instruments and I studied music up to A-level at school, so I guess you could say it's a pretty big part of my life.

    It would be better to find another job. But if the situation is dire and you cannot find another job, even after having tried, then it is no sin on you to work there, as it is not through your own choice you are listening to it. But if your situation allows then it is better to find employment elsewhere.

    hmm, next time a musical tune comes into your mind or even just the lyrics to a song you really like, just as a test, try your very best to sincerely get it out of your mind! Let me know how difficult you find it. It is my personal belief that a faaar more important thot is being blocked by those lyrics/music... a thot which could benefit you so greatly

    PEACE BRO!!!

    why are people being pedantic?

    If she shouldnt go for the job than perhaps she shouldnt walk out on to the street what with cars driving by with music on, or have a ringtone on her mobile phone..

    ,

    I agree. I don't know where you live but the songs played in the grocery store here in the US isn't the real party stuff that is played on the radio. It's usually stuff called "easy listening". Real sappy stuff. Annoying! You won't get hooked trust me . If you do find yourself tempted look for another job.
