Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on the musical tones that come from mobile phones? And what is the ruling on those who disturb the worshippers because of these phones?
Answer:
It is not permissible for them to do this. Musical tones are forbidden, music is forbidden, and music and musical instruments are forbidden by the consensus of the scholars, because they are instruments of amusement, and one should not be lenient with even a small amount of them. Whoever comes to the mosque and to prayer must turn off the mobile phone and not disturb himself or the worshippers.
