Question:
What is the ruling on the statement of one who says it is necessary to reconsider the ruling on the prohibition of music?
Answer:
We do not change the rulings of the Shari'ah, nor do we reconsider them. We do not change the rulings of the Shari'ah. We do not change what is lawful and what is forbidden because of people's desires and wishes. It is not permissible. That is the work of the Jews and the Christians; they are the ones who distort the rulings of the Torah and the Gospel. They distort them because of their desires and the desires of people. As for the Muslims, they do not change anything of Allah's rulings, whether people are pleased or angry. Yes.
