Is it permissible to listen to calm music that plays by chance and positively affects the soul, without the intention of continuing to listen to it or being drawn to commit something unlawful, and am I sinful for enjoying it for a few seconds before turning it off?
What is forbidden is the intent to listen to music. As for merely hearing it without intent, there is no sin in that. However, one must not pay attention to it.
