[48] وَ إِذَا لُبِسَ الْحَرِيرُ وَ شُرِبَتِ الْخَمْرُ وَ اتُّخِذَ الْقِيَانُ وَ الْمَعَازِفُ‏ وَ لَعَنَ آخِرُ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ أَوَّلَهَا فَلْيَرْقُبُوا بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثَ خِصَالٍ رِيحاً حَمْرَاءَ وَ مَسْخاً وَ فَسْخاً And when silk will be worn, and the wine will be drunk, and singers and the musical instruments are taken, and the latter ones of this community will curse its former ones, so after that they will be indulging in three characteristics – red wind, and morphing, and disintegration’’.

[49] الغناء نوح إبليس على الجنة إذا أراد أحدكم النوم فليضع يده اليمنى تحت خده الايمن وليقل: (بسم الله، وضعت جنبي لله على ملة إبراهيم ودين محمد (صلى الله عليه وآله) و ولاية من افترض الله طاعته، ما شاء الله كان وما لم يشألم يكن) فمن قال ذلك عند منامه حفظ من اللص والمغير والهدم واستغفرت له الملائكة The singing is a lamentation of Iblees -la upon the Paradise; when one of you wants to sleep, then let him place his right hand under his right cheek, and let him say, ‘In the Name of Allah -azwj !

I place my side for Allah -azwj upon the Religion of Ibrahim -as and Religion of Muhammad -saww and Wilayah of the one the obedience to whom Allah -azwj has Obligated. Whatever Allah -azwj Desires happens, and what He -azwj does not Desire, does not happen’. The one who says that at his sleep would be protected from the thief, and the invader, and the demolition, and the Angels would seek Forgiveness for him.

[50] والملاهي التي تصد عن ذكر الله تبارك وتعالى مكروهة، كالغناء وضرب الاوتار، والاصرار على صغائر الذنوب And the amusement which hinders from the Zikr of Allah -azwj Blessed and Exalted is abhorrent, like the singing and striking the vocal chords, and the persistence upon the smaller sins’. ثم قال (عليه السلام): إن في هذا البلاغا لقوم عابدين Then he -asws said: ‘Surely in this is the manifesto for worshipping people’’.

[51] وسألته عن الرجل يتعمد الغناء يجلس إليه ؟ قال: لا And I asked him -asws about the man who deliberates the singing, can one be seated to him (in his company)?’ He-asws said: ‘No’. [52] وسألته عن الغناء أيصلح في الفطر والاضحى والفرح ؟ قال: لا بأس ما لم يزمر به And I asked him-asws about the singing, is it correct during the (Eids of) Al-Fitr and Al-Azha and the happiness? He-asws said: ‘There is no problem for as long as he does not blows (flute etc.) with it’.
