Question:
Honorable Shaykh, he asks: What is the authenticity of this hadith, and does the sound of a mobile phone fall under this?
Answer:
Yes, the hadith is authenticSunan Ibn Majah 3650Hasan (Darussalam), and angels do not accompany a group in which there is a bell. This is correct.
The bell referred to is the bell taken for entertainment. As for the bell taken for necessity, such as the bell of a mobile phone, the doorbell, or for seeking permission, because people no longer knock now; the one who seeks permission does so only by the bell, because they are in apartments and buildings and the voice does not reach them and they do not hear the knocking on the door, so the bell has become necessary now. It was not taken for entertainment but for necessity. The clock bell to wake you up at the end of the night was not taken for entertainment but for necessity, so there is no harm in that, if Allah wills. Yes. Yes.
