[quote]If what you are saying is true, then why did the prophet (s.a.w.) allow hazrat Aisha (r.t.a.) to enjoy the African dancers and their musical instruments?

It shows either you are a liar or the shaih bukhari hadith is a lie. Which one is it?

And lagh and fahshai may be haram, but music is of many kinds. Certainly most of the music today is associated with lagh and fahshai, but music that glorifies Allah, how dare you call that music that glorifies Allah and brings you closer to Allah's remmembrance, how dare you call it haram?

You said >>> Music cannot relieve the worries etc, YOU ARE WELL WRONG. Only the remembrance of Allah makes you happy. <<<

That is a big lie that music cannot relieve worries.

Armies, even Muslim armies, used the drum-beat music and singing to instil valor, to moralize the army and to demoralize the enemy, to get the worry of enemy off their minds.

Upon the prophet's arriving in Medina after the migration from Mecca, the people rejoiced and sang and danced in the streets. The singing and dancing was an expression of joy, an outlet for them.

If it were up to mullahs and fundamentalists, the human race would be living a dull and boring life under an iron curtain of fear. They try to take out the little bit of happiness from this life that the poor and oppressed people have. What you people end up doing then is creating a hatred for Islam.

Don't you see what the fundamentalists did in Afghanistan, and are doing in Iran. The young people there begin to hate Islam. But the reverse is true for Muslim societies where there is more freedom. People actually start loving Islam because it is so lenient. Islam asks us to follow the middle way. So why are you so harsh and hard headed?
