Question:

Is music Haram in our religion? If it is so, why do people not care about this in almost every Muslim country?

Answer:

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

Music and the musical instruments are forbidden in Shariah. For more details, please refer to the Fataawa: 81239 and 81545.

Allah Knows best.
