What is the ruling on praising the Prophet with musical instruments for a fee for a married person who is unemployed?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Singing accompanied by musical instruments is forbidden, even if it is praise of Allah or eulogy of the Prophet. The one who engages in it must stop and repent. The money earned from it is unlawful and must not be used; rather, it must be disposed of by giving it to the poor and needy.
