salaam ma70,ma70 said:Ok, no problem. If you are not satisfied with that interpretation, lets forget even mentioning it. Allah ordered us in the qur'aan to follow Muhammad (pbuh). And the hadiths I provided CLEARLY prohibit music. So, following the orders of the prophet is following the commands of God.
the ahaadith provided by other posters were quite clear too.
I thought i made it quite clear that we have gone past this issue. Please see the other threads on the islam board.. you will find that the issue was discussed and this quick example and others were all given. Its clear that the Sunnah cannot be ignored. And i made it quite clear that we are not going to have this discussed again and especially not on this thread. For the last time, end of story.No one can be Muslim by following the qur'aan ONLY. You need the sunnah and hadith. Why?, ill give one quick example. Muslims MUST pray five times a day, right? now if anyone denies that fact is concidered as a disbeliever since praying is the second pillar of Islam. I bet that you wont find ANYWHERE in the Qur'aan where it tells you how you exactly pray, or how many rak'as you pray for each prayer. Yet, all that is explained in the Sunnah. So, basically to be a Muslim you need to follow the Qur'aan and Sunnah. Without either, you will indeed go astray.
