Ok through my search in this board I have notice allot of people mention giving up music... I realize you guys might think I am putting allot of stuff on my plate as a new convert... but these kind of things I can handle easily. What is this referring to? all music in General? just secular music? or is it that we should really only listen to Islamic Music because all other music could distract us from Allah?

Any music with a constant beat. When i think of music i remember a rare episode of samurai jack where he is surrounded by techno music and the music had trapped everybeing into trance and he fights it. Perfect example explaining the evilness of music

Really? Music is viewed as evil? so is their any music that is not "evil"? Is their a verse anywhere in the noble Qur'an that states why it is evil?

Well its idle talk isnt it? Its a waste of time isnt it? I mean the time your giving to music, you could read Quran in that time. The thing with music is it weakens your Imaan and strength of that purification that you should have within your heart towards your real Creator

I listen to only one type of music though. Was into rap and hip hop but thats long gone now. Now even if i try to listen i just find myself switching off the radio or player. I thank Allah for that. He can put whatever He wants in your heart and it happens. Amazing isnt it?

I used to be a metalhead, lol.

I consider Music pointless anyway. Listen to Allah ke Bande by Kailash Kher sometimes though, when I'm in a bad mood, always lifts my mood and makes me feel at peace. :)

This one has me in tears every time I watch it. Watch it and tell me if it made you cry too. The words are so touching.

:sl: Despite music being prohibited, most religious occasions I've attended place just as much emphasis on the human voice as any other culture does. Christians have hymns, Muslims have naats.

And whats wrong with being desi? I listen to naat too and its not considered as melody unless you have the guitar piano and violen in the back then it wouldnt even be a naat.

I have just realized the evil of music with a beat!! it just made go "whoa!" I used to listen to some pretty heavy "satanic" heavy metal and today suddenly the beat (a catchy one at that) from one of the songs suddenly just started going off in my head the next thing I knew I was singing those (or humming) those terrible lyrics it took a small while to realize what i was doing!! I was absolutely astonished!

Not all music with a beat is evil and satanic!

My mum used to work for a school for children with severe learning disabilities and they used music for therapy.

In fact, music therapy was highly effective in encouraging self-expression in those children who found it difficult to communicate in conventional ways. It was also a way for them to grow in confidence. Some rarely responded to anything other than music. Little smiley faces and lots of fun.

Is this so wrong?

Also, what is the stance on anti-war songs. Surely these are not considered wrong also?

Brother, that used to happen to me as well. I too used to listen to Satanic black metal. Except in my case, Immortal/Burzum/Mayhem/etc music would play in my head... It's Shaytan trying to control your thoughts. Fight it.

Danny Filth is a cartoon, lol.
