“What you see instead is that some of the most corrupt elements of society are found among the musicians. The drugs, the deviations and homosexuality, these type of things and all the corruption that’s there, people committing suicide,” he says. “The reality is that it in fact does carry an evil, dark side which produces that type of corruption amongst themselves and, in the end, ends up corrupting elements of the society.”

Actually has a point here.

Music is a gift from God and like all his gifts, can be corrupted by sin. It is the corruption of the gift that is bad and not the gift itself. I don't let my children listen to certain types of music because I believe it is "corrupted". But that doesn't apply to all music. It takes discernment.

The only “point” is on his head.

I don’t think druggies get high on Bleu Grass, Country and Western and Classical.

Muslims hate:

Pork

Pretty Women

Free Speech

Secular Government

Dancing

Singing

Images of people or animals

Dogs

Alcohol

People who leave Islam

People who try to talk Muslims into leaving Islam

They are maniacs!! Puritans on Steroids.

What better way to kill a person’s soul then to ban music. Islam is joyless, it is a form of tortuous bondage that the isane want to inflict upon the sane.
