(Harun Yahya)

God has made singing, being paid for it, money from it and
teaching and listening to it forbidden. (Muhammad al-
Ghazali, Nabawi Sunnah)

Contrary to all these fabricated hadiths, there is no command-
ment whatsoever in the Qur'an that prohibits music, dancing and

entertainment. God has made happiness, pleasure and joy lawful for
Muslims. Dance means rhythm and harmony. God has created the
entire universe with a rhythm; even birds, insects and butterflies
dance. Birds sing lovely songs with a sound and rhythm one can
never get enough of. It is a great delight to listen to them. The sound
of the sea, the pulse of nature, the sighing of the trees, all are rhyth-

mic. God loves rhythm, dance, music and lovely voices. Paradise
was also created with that rhythm. All the trees, plants and animals
in paradise will dance. One hadith that reveals this says:

It is related from Abu Musa al-Ash'ari (ra) that, he said
from the Basra pulpit: "God will send news to the people
of paradise and ask: 'Has God kept His promise to you?' At
that moment, they will look at the ornaments, clothes,
fruits, spotless spouses and rivers bestowed on them and

will not be able to help saying: 'God has kept His promise
to us.' The angel will three times ask, 'Has God kept His
promise to you?' When they see that the promise given
them has been kept down to the finest detail, they will say
'Yes!' The angel will reply, 'There is one thing more.'
Almighty God will manifest Himself to His servants and
lift the veil from their eyes. When they see Him, all rivers
will rejoice, the trees will wave and murmur, the mansions
will give off sparks, the streams will flow fast and bright,

fine scents will pervade the courtyards and mansions, and
the smell of musk and camphor will be smelled on all sides.
