Am i committing a sin?

[Selising]

If u r focusing on doing something, other things will not effect your hearing. I don't know abt others but me, it works well. If I'm watching TV, don't ask me any question, I can't hear, unless I'm not so interested with the programme.

I used to go to supermarket that plays music 24/7, but I don't think I can hear any music excepts loud noises, don't know from where. It must be from the supermarket itself, where else? But my focus is on buying things not listening to anything. May be I'm so used to it or may be I'm just ignorant. I think I'm ignorant kind of person.

So many things that u cannot change in this world, so just ignore it. People have so many reasons and answers to our suggestions, so don't crack our head thinking of it. Pray to Allah that one day our ummah will be strong. Work it out, help those who want to make our ummah strong

I just finished reading some of the last comments...
Allah knows best but from what I've read and heard it is not sinful to listen to music, sing, dance, or play... Of course, you have to be careful what you sing about or what music you listen to but otherwise it is ok. The Prophet (pbuh), allowed this in the masjid even (this is reported by Al-Bukhari if I'm not mistaken).

 

[shanu]

salaam
not all music is haraam
music that talks about sex and cause excitement is haraam
but i have a bad feeling the place u are gg to work has that type of bad music. But dont worry, intention matters
U r not working there with the intention to listen to that music right?
So just concentrate on dhikr and avoid the music

Sis music is haraam! There's quite a few muslims who feel that music is allowed in Islam but it's definately not allowed

A quote from the Prophet Muhammad peace and blessings of Allah be upon him from the Hadith Shahih Al-Bukhari:

"There will be people of my Ummah who will seek to make lawful; fornication, wine-drinking and the use of ma'aazif (musical instruments)."

also evidence from the Quran shareef...

Surah Ahzab (Verse 4)

"Allah has not made for any man, two hearts in his body"

When Ibn Umar (May Allah be pleased with him) comments on this verse, he says that a heart that is full of Qur'an cannot be full of music. Truly, the words of Allah and the voice of Satan cannot co-exist in a single heart. Tis' hyprocritical! Nay, tis' a mockery of the highest order.

Surah Luqman (Verse 6)

But there are, among men, those who purchase idle tales, without knowledge (or meaning), to mislead (men) from the Path of Allah and throw ridicule (on the Path): for such there will be a Humiliating Penalty.

Sayydana Abdullah Ibn Masood was asked about the meaning of the verse to which he replied:

“I swear by Him besides whom there is no other God, that it refers to ghinaa (singing).”

Sis in my opinion, you can start working but in the mean time you must look for another job. Once you find another one, you can leave your current job.

Allah knows best.

[IbnAbdulHakim]

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..

bro you have stated two very different situations!
walking in the street and havin music played by some1 in a car is veeery temporary and extremely easy to ignore! There is noway that will effect us! As for ringtones, my one is the sound of a dart being thrown at a bulls eye! lol... music? LAA!!!! (no in arabic ) so wat im sayin is musik that is in your ears and you cannot avoid (in homes/at work) may influence you badly!!! BELIEVE ME THIS IS NOT BEING PEDANTIC!!!

Allah knows best!

as fos sis ukht do what your heart feels right!! If it feels really wrong to keep working there then explain it to your mum and hope Allah guides you! But if your ok wiv it and u feel u can ignore it then all the best!!

You should look for another job, in the mean time stick with this one, with the advice a wise man once said:
Shaitan is always looking for an opening to get you.
Drive him away with Dhikr.
And Allah (s.w.t.) knows best
