"The Prophet said that Allah commanded him to destroy all the musical instruments, idols, crosses and all the trappings of ignorance."
Muhammad also said:
(1) “Allah Mighty and Majestic sent me as a guidance and mercy to believers and commanded me to do away with musical instruments, flutes, strings, crucifixes, and the affair of the pre-Islamic period of ignorance.”
(2) “On the Day of Resurrection, Allah will pour molten lead into the ears of whoever sits listening to a songstress.”
(3) “Song makes hypocrisy grow in the heart as water does herbage.”
(4) “This community will experience the swallowing up of some people by the earth, metamorphosis of some into animals, and being rained upon with stones.” Someone asked, “When will this be, O Messenger of Allah?” and he said, “When songstresses and musical instruments appear and wine is held to be lawful.”
(5) “There will be peoples of my Community who will hold fornication, silk, wine, and musical instruments to be lawful ….” -- 'Umdat al-Salik r40.0
I especially like the "Fatwa?" issued by the former head Mad-Mullah of Iran, the Ayatollah, Rouhollah Mousavi Khomeini:
"“Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious. ...
Let's see: No booze under Islam. No eating Pork under Islam. No music under Islam. No "fun" under Islam.
Gee, I can't imagine why anyone would NOT voulutarily want to convert?
In the spirit of knowing mine enemy, I make a point of reading books about Muhammad and Islamic history published before 2001 - not the scribblings of Westerners, but English translations.
The story goes that Muhammad’s last campaign against jealous rivals in the Mecca area resulted in his victory and later the formal execution of 6 or 8 unrepentant foes, two of them females. One of these had been singing songs that mocked Prophet (piss be upon him).
Apparently Allah is sensitive about his shortcomings.
I think liberal application of the Barney the dinosaur song would suffice, along with It’s a Small World, to exact willing confession of anything.
