    Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

    (Fatwa: 1892/1485=H)

     

    (1) In countless traditions and verses, music has been declared haram and prohibited.

     

    (2) It is not right to analogize the TV to mobile and internet. These two things have not been made for entertainment. This is the reason that many people utilize them in fair and allowed ways, except TV that is nearly impossible to use it without a sin. However, if a person uses mobile in unlawful ways like TV then it will be equally sinful.

     

    As far as the action of some scholars is concerned, you should ask this question to them.
