It is not permissible to play music or to listen to it. There is no harm in playing the Qur’an at home, as long as there is no interference between the remembrance of Allah and the Qur’an, and the sounds of musical instruments. This is because such a combination contradicts the veneration of Allah’s verses. Scholars have stipulated the impermissibility of raising one’s voice with the Qur’an in marketplaces, as it entails disrespect for the Qur’an.
