The Evils of Music – The Devil’s Voice and Recitation Taken from Delivering the Afflicted from the Plots of ash-Shaytan by the Imam Abi ‘Abdillah Muhammad bin Abi Bakr bin Ayyab bin Qayyim al-Jawziyyah (691 AH—751 AH) Translated by Qasim Mutiva

THE EVILS OF MUSIC – THE DEVIL’S VOICE AND RECITATION

The mention of the positions and statements of the scholars regarding singing:

From the plots of the Shaytan (Satan) and his traps which he uses. to influence those who possess only a small share of knowledge, intellect, and religion—and with this, he captures the hearts of the ignorant and the people of falsehood—is listening to whistling (al-muka’), clapping (at-tasdiyyah),

and singing accompanied by instruments, which are forbidden, that’ turns the hearts away from the Qur’an and causes them to become preoccupied with disobedience and transgression.

So it is the Qur’an of the Shaytan and the dense barrier that keeps people from the Most Merciful.

And it is the enticement of homosexuality and illicit sexual promiscuity. Through it, the immoral lover entices his lover to the very limits of their desires.

With it, the Shaytan deceives the astray souls and makes it seem good to them through scheming and delusion.

He inspires within them baseless doubts to justify its “goodness” and his suggestions are accepted; because of this, it causes the Qur’an to become abandoned.

So if you were to see them whenever they indulge in that listening of theirs when their voices become low, their motions cease, their hearts become completely engaged in it, and they are collectively inclined towards it; when this occurs, they begin to sway to it, not like the swaying of the one who is drunk.

Rather, there is a languor to their motions and dancing. Haven’t you witnessed the languor of the effeminate (men) and the women?

And it is only fitting for them since its intoxication has influenced them, and thus it did to them what the worst cups of alcohol would do.

So for other than Allah’s sake—rather, for the Devil’s—the hearts are torn apart, rewards are destroyed, and wealth is spent in other than the obedience of Allah.

Once this drunkenness has had its effect, and the Shaytan has attained his wish and goal for them and has provoked them with his voice and plots and he was able to win them over with all of his cavalry and infantry, then he injects something into their chests and incites them to intensely strike the ground with their feet.
