Ibn
az-Zubayr told that a woman client of theirs took az-Zubayr's daughter
to Umar ibn al-Khattab wearing bells on her legs. Umar cut them off
and said that he had heard the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him)
say: There is a devil along with each bell [Dawud :: Book 34 : Hadith
4218]
The Messenger of Allah
(sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “Bells are the musical instruments
of the Shaytaan.” [Sahih Muslim:: Book 24 : Hadith 5279]
Hence, he (sal Allahu
alaihi wa sallam) said that the angels “do not accompany any people
with whom there is a dog or a bell.” [Sahih Muslim:: Book 24 : Hadith
5277]
Singing and music are two of the means by which the Shaytaan corrupts people’s hearts and destroys their souls.
Ibn Al-Qayyim said:
“Among the plots and traps of the enemy of Allah, with which he seeks
to ensnare those whose share of knowledge, reasoning and religious
commitment is minimal and trap the ignorant and the followers of
falsehood is listening to whistling and clapping of hands [Quran 8:35],
and singing accompanied by forbidden musical instruments, which closes
people’s hearts to the Quran and makes them devoted to immorality and
sin. This is the “quran” of the Shaytaan, an impenetrable barrier which
blocks them from the Most Merciful. This is the means that leads to
homosexuality and fornication, by means of which the Shaytaan ensnares
the hearts of those who follow falsehood and makes it appear
attractive to them by way of deceit and trickery. He inspires them by
means of specious arguments to regard it as something good, so they
accept this idea and for the sake of singing they forsake the Quran…”
