Listening to the Radio


Question:

Is it permitted in Islam to listen to those programs on the radio that do not consist of or contain messages or sounds that are forbidden?
Answer:

There is no harm is listening to programs that air the recitation of the Quraan, sayings of the Allaahs Messenger, or news. In the same way, there is no harm in listening to audio-cassettes of the Noble Quraan, beneficial Hadiths, and religious advice. I especially advise you to listen to the Quraan radio station Ithaat Al-Quraan and to the program Nur Ala Ad-Darb, which consists of very beneficial content.
