I know its quite emabarrasin as a muslim, but as ramadan is few inches behind d corner, I have 2 confess in order 2 get help, coz I believe we r 2 help each other rite? I luv music, I know its haram!! I listen 2 music 24/7 & finding it difficult 2 stop, its very temptin. I sumtyms get 2 hum in d presence of elders which am not aware of such an act & its bad as well. Its quite bad or should I say very bad & RAMADAN month of piousness :o, Think about it!. Now I would luv 2 give up a passion 4 music in God's sake & give up a vice never return 2 them (I mean I hope so).But ppl how? Nutin seems 2 work :-/ besides I don wan2 end up being those ppl being labelled as jujals & Co.
True!! Indeed u have 2 stop, coz day by day its gettin worse. Heres an idea. B freindz with King of pop MJ ;D. Sorry babes!!Ki koma ga karatun Quran.
Yes! yes! yes! yes!. Finally someone is brave enuf, even though is embarrasin 2 speak up 2 d same problem am facing. A taimaka ya jama'atul musulmeen.
Nuff Respect
Assalamu Alikum,
It's such a brave thing for one to comeout here and say his/her problem and that shows how much he believe in us the forum members. i would like us all to think of possibles ways to hel our sis.
My suggestion is that; I have a feeling that first and foremost, u have to check a few things that u believed muzik do for u, eg. sum people listen 2 muzik when they are down so as to feel better or it's the best way to relax for some. now some of these things will have to be subtituted with other things. It's not going to be easy; "coz habits die hard"!! One of the subtitute to that is when u are down u should perform abolutiona dn pray 2 raka'ats, or read the holy Qur'an or The hadith.
Also, having good thots really matters coz when u think alot about muzik the desire for it increases. So why don't u think more of; Oh, have I read da Qur'an? Or how many hadiths have been able to read and understand? that kinda thing u know.
It will be of great help if u can remeber a few Zikr then try to be recoting it more often. there is great reward to he/she who praises the prophet (S.A.W.) often.
There are also a few 'Hausa bege' that are so very sweet when u get 2 hear them and u will madly fall in love with them, am sure it will help.
May Allah help us Ameen.
Assalaam Alaikum,
Wallahi good question you asked sister Ummita ?:). It's hard to just stop listening to music and all but you can implement it gradually...ok here is a thing...when you feel like listening to music, instead of inserting a musical cassette/CD, put on some islamic lecture or Qur'an...the latter is better as it's more soothing and all *smile*. Or as others here suggested read the Qur'an, hadith or do Zikr and instead of humming the music try reciting some verses from the Qur'an (which I know you have memorized some)... I know it can be hard to do all that as you don't even know when you'll just start humming and all...but insha Allah taking it step at a time sai kiga ma it will come to a point that zai zamar maki jiki to be reciting from the Qur'an instead of singing. Ok...I know I have been blabbing and can't stop so I'll just ?:-X...
Ummita, I pray that Allah will relieve you of that habit Insha Allah. *wink*
Ok...anymore confessions ? ;D (kidding)
um....people?... music is not haram....
Ppl am also in d same gr8t dilemma, Instead of doin things like zikirs as d first day of ramadan I found my self singing 2 dilemma (N&Kelly). Keep pourin out ur advice, those good samaritans wallahi I'll stick 2 them.
but its not haram!!!!!!!
U dis gurl(FYNEDYMEQUEEN) or na (fyne de follow) wetin b ur own, naso u dey carry leg follow me every place I LEAVE d shining star out d best in me (follow follow) Y u getin all d negative vibes. MUsic is haram. Though rulez r meant 2 b broken. I give up 2 music immediately ramadan is over am getin bck 2 that. Ummita leave it 4 d tym being, after ramdan we go carry on. Babanyanmata (U I no get best way 2 describe u sef) u dey go 4 soft music like so!! Ihsan (In a way my star like u small...but make u no push ur luck) So u sabi rowa.. u no fit pay my ticket... Ehen! Na u I dey target wetin b ur own Kameel (naso u dey bck Ummita 4 everything). I go tell wo! U know she b my freind.
Salam,
Da fatan an sha ruwa lafiya?!! ;D I have been thinking since last night as to what other ways are there to STOP listening to muzik! Sister ummita and farouq, u can use this ramadan period change, u c, ramadan period is more like a skool, for insatnce; we were use to eating throughout the day, during ramadan we rgulate it and we are expected to hold on to what we have learnt during the noble month. It also applies to, so many things we excersized stopping during ramadan when we are out of that ramadan school we should matain!!
IMPORTANT!! Prayers are answered quite FAST during ramadan, u guys can use this opportunity to pray so that Allah will help u STOP listening to too much muzik. I shall help u pray too. may Allah help us. Amin.
Northern star u funny ooo. wtin be ur own?!! eh?!! Man no fit talk 4 dis forum again?!! c me c wahala ooo!! Anywayz, u make me lol.
try Islamic music
my friend told me of a site i just sent him an sms hope he replies soon, download the songs
no drumming no instruments just simple praise singing........... oops no reply but i'll get it for u soon Insha'Allah
hey
RAMADHAN MABROUK !
Assalaam Alaikum,
Ooh I know of some sites that have the islamic anashids with Qur'an recitation as well...try islamicity.com... this site is really good ?:D
one thing i love bout this forum,
we get to discuss things almost forbidden in our culture..
Hmmm...what are those things?
? ?
SALAMU ALAIKUM
RAMADAN MUBARAK PEOPLE!!!
Sista, I love music too...but I will give ya some tips on how I roll the dice....
1. The music u listen to shouldnt be explicit :o
2. Never listen to music when its time to pray
3. Make sure that the u read Al-Quran much MORE than listening
? ?to music..
Especially this is the month of Ramadan...u should be playing the Quran 24/7
Amma May Allah help us all Insha Allah
Ameen Ukhty...Allah yasa :)... Allah ya raba mu da aikata abu mara kyau ko wani iri ne!
Yeah! Music, gr8t ideas from u all.We should try Islamic music..mhmm ehen,ehen that thingy wey fulanicious get, yes! that icon wey we go fit notice u, that one now synogue, abi na hindu temple or na post box? & ur yellow writin just symbolises how bright u r. Imagine this world without music, ppl how u see am?
well u see,
if yur in kano and u wanna discuss this kinda thing.........
u'll think twice b4 .
haba kunya ma zai kashe mutun thinkin of what the answer of the other person would be
malam..........
"kaga a lokacin azimi ina samun masalan nan"
malam="maye?"
answer "kaga a lokacin azimi ina tunawa da wakoki kuma sae in fara yi wa kai na,kaman su r-kelly"
malam="inna'Lillahi"
aikin shaitan kenan
and then they name u "malam r-kelly"
R u givin us a scenario on wat happened when u were so ashamed 2 speak of d same problem most of us were having, so u rather went off 2 consult a malam and that was exactly d conversation u had with him. Wallahi theres nutin shameful about it. One thing I like this Al-Hamza is, he ends up speaking about himself, if u r not a gr8t fan of music y d R.Kelly... as u said u have sinned in d past n have load of skeleton in ur cupboard. Ay mate!!! I get d picture ;D ;D
N.sTAR to be honest wit u. i think that is supposed to be a time gate as indicated where i got the icon from.... but to me it looks faaar from a time gate....
anywayz...Islamic music--- we already have Yusuf Islam around
.. unless u gonna sing for us 8)
Salam
I am of the view that music, used for a constructive purpose- unlike rap music...- , is not haram. Why, because there is nothing wrong in doing what pleases you as long as it conforms to Islamic ideals. Take Bob Marley for instance, his songs are usually satirical and thus not caterogically prohibited.
Secondly, In Allah zai baki wata sha daya ki tajin wakokin da kike so, cant you give Allah just 30 days? its seems fair to me. Although, any action not worthy of being taken in ramadan is by definition also not worthy of doing out of ramadan. That is one of the principles underlying the importance of Azimi.
Kamar yadda hausawa suke cewa, riga kafi ta fi magani, I.E the best way of avoiding music is getting as far away from it.
I must say, rap music and all music used to glorify violence and justify adultery are haram in or out the month of ramadanm
And I wish you the best as always.
Bisslam
A sha ruwa lafiya.
mhmm.. ehen... ehen... Amin I no tlk say I no go fit sacrifice 3oyrs 4 ramadan.. cumin 2 think things over u r worse than I am.. Bob Marley & co.. u even know raps containing violence etc...I say our man here knows it all. Nice one!!
