It is not permissible to listen to religious invocations accompanied by music, because music alone is forbidden, and in it there is an imitation of the worship of disbelievers. Many scholars have transmitted the consensus on the impermissibility of listening to music and musical instruments. It is not permissible for a responsible person to undertake an action until he knows Allah's ruling on it, and that includes prophetic praises and chanting with music.
