The ruling on disturbing neighbors with songs in a rented house
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: I rented a new house at a reasonable price, but I have neighbors who disturb me with songs and music. Should I move out of this house, and is this considered a defect?
Answer:
This is wrong. You should ask the Commission to remove it—the Commission for Promoting Virtue and Prohibiting Vice. Those who raise the volume of musical instruments and flutes must be prevented from doing so. They disturb the neighbors and make them sin. This is not permissible. Yes.
