Q: I know that listening to music is forbidden in Islam. I reside in a hostel with 3 room-mates. Sometimes, they play songs, videos on loudspeaker and other students from different rooms also join them. In this case, what should I do? Since we live in secular country, I can't tell them to stop as everyone is free to do anything one desires
A: If you can find a hostel that is deeni friendly then live there. Otherwise, try your best not to listen to the music and plug your ears with ear plugs.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
