A Muslim's ability to convince others of a Shariah ruling requires him to be knowledgeable of the Shariah proofs pertaining to the issue and to be capable of refuting opponents' arguments. Regarding the proofs for the prohibition of music accompanied by singing, one may refer to Fatwas No. 61775, 69680, 50031, and Sheikh Al-Albani's book "Tahrim Alat al-Tarab" (The Prohibition of Musical Instruments).
