Committing a sin where there is a Quraan or during azaan

Q:

1. If I do a sin, such as watching tv, listen to music, disrespect parents, etc. in a room/place where there is a Quran, names of Allah, a picture of a Quran aayat, or any other Islamic thing, is it kufr?

2. Is it kufr to do a sin while athan is happening?

A:

1. It is not kufr, but it is a serious crime. Make a lot of istighfaar and taubah and promise Allah Ta`ala that you will never do it again.

2. As above.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
