✔ Ruling:
It is impermissible to possess instruments of entertainment, such as musical instruments and drums,
or to collect audio recordings containing melodious songs.
Additionally:
✘ Buying and selling these items is also not permissible,
✘ Their possession amounts to cooperation in sin and transgression,
✘ Earning money through their sale is unlawful, because when Allah forbids something, its price is also forbidden.
These items should be:
❌ Destroyed or disposed of,
❌ Not used in events like weddings, as such usage promotes public display of evil.
