which apparently look ordinary or insignificant. Their careful consideration in terms of the rights of people is truly amazing.

It is reported that once Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah Ibn Mubarak رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه was about to set off on a journey. A person gave him a letter to deliver to somebody. Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah Ibn Mubarak رَحْمَةُ اللهِ تَعَالٰی عَلَيْه said, ‘I have hired the camel, so I will have to seek permission from its owner as I have already shown him my entire luggage and this letter is an extra thing.’

Under these conditions, if any Na’at Mahfil is held with high volumes then it clearly hurts the feelings of those who are ill or helpless and in response to the protests of the locals, drawing their attention towards playing movie songs on the occasions of wedding etc., while defending the deafening sound of speaker and then questioning them why not they dislike songs etc., is not appropriate at all, plus making comments that people get angry when Na’at of the Noblest Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم recited, مَـعَـاذَ الـلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ this is a clear false accusation, because no matter how sinful a Muslim is, he can never be disturbed by Na’at Khuwani.
