Is listening to songs that contain music and non-obscene lyrics forbidden, or is it not forbidden if they do not distract from acts of worship? And what is the ruling on music prevalent in applications, advertisements, and TV series?

Music (musical instruments) is forbidden according to most scholars. The widespread nature and pervasive affliction of it affect the ruling when one cannot avoid it, such as in streets, commercial stores, and beneficial programs for which no alternative free of musical instruments is available. In such cases, a distinction is made between unintentional hearing and intentional listening.
