Brother, adhering to the teachings of the Quran and Rasulullah (pbuh) is Taqwa not fanaticism. Allah says, "And obey Allah and the Messenger, that ye may obtain mercy." [Qur'ân 3:132] If you are referring to the music thread being closed and our stance on music itself then ask yourself where Allah or His Rasul (PBUH) commanded is to listen to music? They didn't. So you can't accuse others of being fanatics for not doing something that isn't taught in Islam. As mentioned before, since the Asahaba, and the men of knowledge who came after them agreed upon music being haram, the least we should do if we believe otherwise is accept that there is a possibility that we are wrong. Imam Shaf'i once said something like, "I know I am right, but there is a chance that I maybe wrong."
Insulting and accusing our brothers in Islam is a very serious sin and we should avoid it.

As for replying to your post on the other thread, I didn't get the opportunity as it was wisely closed while I was busy compiling a list of Sufi and Bollywood music including that which you said praises Allah to show you that it contains shirk, falsehood and lies against Allah and invites listeners to sin and immorality. Insha Allah, I will post it on a separate thread as soon as it is finished. And as your sister in Islam, I request you to not promote music as being halal, because no one should gather witnesses against them in calling others to what is evil, contains shirk and leads to immorality and disobedience to Allah subhana wa ta'ala. Insha Allah I will give you evidence that music does do this.
:
look, Tyrion doesn't believe that Music is haram so he wanted to ask questions in the other thread why do people think that Music is haram but still listen to nasheed(with no music) is halal. According to the scholarly consensus that was posted by brother Muhammad it is halal to listen to Nasheed without Music(guitar, piano and etc2 except duff with some circumstances). I am a still learning Muslim and I can't pass what is halal or haram on this forum because I follow Madhab as-syafiee and I follow the Islamic hukm that are being enforced here(my region). With that said, it would only be logical for brother Muhammad to lock the thread as Tyrion or some other member have asked the same question many times and as far as I am concerned all those thread were either deleted or locked. If you look at brother Muhammad's post properly, he took his time and effort to post the links only to be ignored or made as an annoyance. So please, stop and think before commenting on the mods of this board, they are very helpful people and have almost no time on the forums(Brother Muhammad doesn't post a lot, you should feel a bit privilege for him to post in your thread). The mods are very careful when discussing Islamic matters because during the day of Judgement they(mods) will be questioned about how they dealt with us(forumers) when we discussed an issue and how we're handled. As a last note, you should stay around more often to see how they run things here not judge them directly based upon a thread that has been similarly created multiple of times and please don't diss the mods or the members as we are Muslims and how can we expect to move forward if we're not united? Allah Knows Best! No hard feelings guys!
