The answer

One who hears music while disliking it is not sinful, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "When a sin is committed on earth, he who witnesses it and dislikes it is like one who was absent from it." A Muslim should enjoin good and forbid evil to the best of their ability, such as advising their brother kindly or gifting him a tape by a scholar discussing the harms of this disobedience.
