Repentance While Listening to Singing and Weakness of Resolve
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. My question is that I am a person who listens to singing and disobeys Allah in private. Every time I want to repent, my resolve weakens. So why do you advise me?
Answer:
Your continued listening to singing, flutes, and musical instruments causes you much harm. So you must stop listening to singing, musical instruments, and flutes, and stay away from them, because they cause you to fall into and drag you into other sins. They are the reason you have fallen into these matters. So avoid them and stay away from them. It is not enough that you seek forgiveness while you remain committed to the sin and do not leave it. Or that you do the things that lead you to sin. This is not enough.
So leave the sin completely and stay away from its causes that lead you to fall, such as listening to singing, looking at what Allah has forbidden, mixing with open sinners, sitting with open sinners, and looking at lowly screens and satellite channels. All of these are causes for falling into sins, so avoid them and stay away from them, along with repenting to Allah for what has happened and what you have done previously. Yes.
