Aug 31, 2015 at 7:32 comment added Medi1Saif You could also harm your ear by listening to bad recordings of speeches of sheikh Kiskh or Quran recitations! By the way Imam Malik (May Allah be merciful to him) wanted to become a singer: this is for me a clear statement which shows that music can't be haram as it was accepted even in the early days of islam
Aug 10, 2012 at 17:41 comment added Muz lol, if you want to damage your hearing, live in Makkah/Medina. The car horns throughout the day are louder than many radios. Does that make it haraam to live in the holy city? I don't think noise is a good reason, and the majority of music doesn't have any bad words or bad influence.
Aug 5, 2012 at 2:03 comment added Mateen Ulhaq @Ozon Thanks. Now if you really want to go damage your hearing, go live in a city. Far more damage than listening to music at safe levels especially with in-ear/noise-isolating earphones. In fact -- I'd argue that putting those isolating earphones on might actually be beneficial for your hearing because of it filtering out that horrid background city noise (especially true for me). Also, unlike most people, the lowest setting possible on my android wasn't good enough so I got an app to tweak it down further. Music's positive effects however: mental, spiritual, and physical (placebo).

Jun 24, 2012 at 6:26 comment added Mateen Ulhaq I don't think you can "harm your body" by hearing music. (Assuming that it isn't blasted into your ears at jet engine volumes.) Also, citations.
