Does the presence of music at a wedding affect the validity of the adhkar and ruqyah recited for protection?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
It is impermissible to hold a wedding that includes forbidden acts such as singing, music, and intermingling. You are not obliged to obey your brothers or anyone else in this matter, for there is no obedience to a creature in disobedience to the Creator. What happened without your knowledge incurs no blame upon you. Reciting adhkar (remembrances of God) to repel devils and protect oneself from their cunning is permissible, and its validity is not nullified by the presence of singing and forbidden acts.
