[quote]Assalam-uallaikum!
The Qur'an doesn't directly forbid music . The Qur'an also doesn't directly allow music. Don't hide one aspect of the fact. 
Similarly The Qur'an doesn't directly forbid eating lions and the Qur'an doesn't directly allow eating lions. But we don't eat them.
Just for the sake of argument , 
Even if some forms of music were thought to have been heard or not forbidden, doesn't give you a blank cheque to listen to all types of music existing today.

I want to find out whether the Muslims today follow all the teachings of a particular sect or a particular scholar, how tolerant the Muslims are against opposing views , and whether the Muslims are determined to find out the truth or their version of the truth or their teacher's version of the truth, or some sect's version of the truth. How much Ayaat, Hadith, Sunnan do they use in these discussions.

... Say: ‘Allah misguides whoever He wills and guides to Himself all who turn to Him: those who believe and whose hearts find peace in the remembrance of Allah. Only in the remembrance of Allah can the heart find peace.’ (13:27-28)

Do you listen to music for peace or relaxation? then see the above Aayaat.

1. Music by non-Muslims, should Muslims listen to such music ?
2. Music by non-practicing Muslims who don't even follow basic commands, should Muslims listen to such music? 
What kind of Music do you think is allowed in Islam ?
3. If you analyze the lives of Musicians in general, do they give good examples as obedient human beings ?
4. What benefit in the Hereafter will this music bring us?
5. What benefit in this world will this music bring us?
6. Will listening to music not waste our time?
7. Which forms of music existing today do you think are acceptable and which are unacceptable ?
8. Why do you listen to music ?
9. What positive effects does music have on your life?
10. What negative effects does music have on your life?

Note : If I don't reply for a long time , this will not mean I don't have an answer, rather I have decided to give alot lesser time to these discussions .
