Using verses as a mobile phone ringtone
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: I call my colleague on the mobile phone, and after he answers, I play verses or hadiths, then I wait, and then my colleague answers again.
Answer:
This is a phenomenon where people use verses or hadiths on mobile phones to notify about a call. This is a mistake. Dhikr is an act of worship, and these are either prescribed dhikr or verses from the Qur'an. They are not to be used to identify a call or to alert the mobile phone owner to a call. This is a disgrace to the verses and hadiths. There is something that suffices in place of that, such as a phone bell with a light ring or light beats or something similar. Yes.
