English narration

Narrated by عبد الله بن مسعود

Salam ibn Miskin, quoting an old man who witnessed Abu Wail in a wedding feast, said: They began to play, amuse and sing. He united the support of his hand round his knees that were drawn up, and said: I heard Abdullah (ibn Masud) say: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Singing produces hypocrisy in the heart.

حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا سَلَّامُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ ، عَنْ شَيْخٍ شَهِدَ أَبَا وَائِلٍ فِي وَلِيمَةٍ فَجَعَلُوا يَلْعَبُونَ يَتَلَعَّبُونَ يُغَنُّونَ ، فَحَلَّ أَبُو وَائِلٍ حَبْوَتَهُ ، وَقَالَ : سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : "

الْغِنَاءُ يُنْبِتُ النِّفَاقَ فِي الْقَلْبِ
