Is listening to Beethoven’s music haram or discouraged under any circumstances?

grassfell asked:


When the Ayatolla Khomeini was asked if he’d ever listened to Beethoven, he said he never had and never will. I then read Sistani’s sight which says music is haram if it’s not religious. On Al Jazeera a sunni someone said a cleric and religious people wouldn’t be respected if they listen to music at home.

(I know in Buddhism the monks can’t listen to music twice a month because music leads to ‘distraction’, however they can listen to it at other times).

Please read my story and comment?

Sarah-Jade asked:


I started this story the other day and would appreciate any feedback from you. Thanks.

The music blasted in my ears.It sizzled through my veins making my body sway in time with the thumping beat.I danced with the crowd and sometimes by myself.i had came with a friend.Stacey was her name, we came to the club together but she spotted some guy she’d been crushing on for the past month and left me to dance by myself. Which was very nice of her.”i won’t be long.Just an hour at the most. I promise.”She pleaded.

i sighed remembering and carried on dancing to the awesome beat.I waved my hands in the air and shaked my hips to the music.The shimmer powder i was wearing on my arms and legs glistened silver and gold in the flashing lights above me. I was wearing my favourite short and a white backless top.I also had on some little silver shoes and a matching bag that goes over your shoulder.My hair was left down and wavy and my makeup was light. I felt great as i shimmied over to the bar.

The guy at the bar finished serving some girl and then turned to me.I read the name badge on his tight black t-shirt..His name was Jack. Jack was gorgous.He had short brown hair that was neatly gelled in little spikes.He was tanned with emerald green eyes and a cheeky grin.

“Hi, what can i get you?” He said in a deep husky voice that nearly melted me on the spot. “Just a bottle of water please.” i recovered cooly and smiled. “Sure, thats £1.50 the please.”. Then he held out his hand for the fiver i was holding. I handed it him and our fingers brushed against each others.His skin was cool and soft again mine.I glance shyly up at his face and blushed when i met his gaze. “Thanks” He said and turned quickly to the till and then back to me with my change and smiled. I returned the smile as he handed me my water.” Thank you” I started to turn around when he did’nt say any thing further.

“Wait! Er, i mean wait please.” Jack shouted almost desperately from behind me.I smiled to my self and turned back to him.” Yes?”.He cleared his throat twice and smiled a little embarrasshed. I waited patiently for him to speak. “Uh, i get off work in a – few minutes.Do you want to dance?” he said nervously in a rush. I felt like saying “i’d lve too” but instead i just sed sure calmly. “That’s great!.Er, i mean okay-sure.I’l see you in a minute then?” H e said cooly but i could see him picking at his nails nervously.”Yes.I’l be right here.”I promised.

He nodded and was about to say something when another costomer arrived.Whilst j Jack poured the man a drink i scanned the crowd for Stacey.
it was there in the corner of the room that caught sight of her flame red hair.Her face was hidden behind some ones head.

It was Alex Griffin.I recognised him by his red shirt that i saw him arrive in.that was’nt the boy Stacey had pleaded to go off with.Suddenly the pair were kissing like there was no tommorrow. I was furious. I felt the red hot anger flood through me making my skin burn. She had left me all this time for a stupid boy! I had never felt so betrated by her.She was supposed to be my best friend, she’s supposed to care about me.

The anger that had been burning through me through me now turned to deep hurt.It was a horrible aching in my chest. I sat there with tears in my eyes realising our friendship had been all a lie.I remembered now all the times she had cancled our plans to go somewhere else with someone else.Or how she could be really mean and hurtful one minute and really nice the next.So long as she got what she wanted. All this time i thought that that was just her, the way she was.But now i saw past all that and it hurt.It hurt like hell.

I sniffeled and yelped when i felt someones coo hand on my shoulder.I spun round and tensed my self in case it was some loony trying to chat me up.”Hey,i did’nt mean to scare you” I relaxed.It was just jack.I was still crying when i whispered “Hey”. I was sure i looked a mess but i did’nt care.I was still hurting. “What happened?”he asked softly and took a seat next to me.So i explained why i was so unhappy.All the time i spoke he listened intently and asked questions.I sighed.”I’m ruining your night are’nt I?” I said embarrashed.I could’nt beleive that i had just explained all that to a stranger but i needed to talk to someone.Poor Jack i thought.

“No, not at all.I promise.”He said solemly.I smiled weakly and straightened my self out and smoothed my clothes down.”I’m just going to the toilets.Then when i come back we can dance.If you still want to ?”I added unsure.He probably thought i was an insecure nutter by now.”Of course.I’ll wait here for you.”I nodded and walked as quickly as i could throught the crowd to the toilets.I shoved open the heavy door and sighed with relief.It was empty and did’nt smell either! I went straight over to the huge mirror above the sinks. “Ungh!” I groaned.I was a complete mess. I bet Jack ran a mile after i left. Mascara coverd half my face and my hair
