Listening to musical tunes is Islamically forbidden. The sound of the tambourine (daf) is a matter of scholarly disagreement, with the preponderant opinion being its permissibility. The sign of loving the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, is to follow him, love his , and read his Ahadith and biography, not merely listening to poems in his praise.
