No violins in Islam

The BBC published an article about life in Gaza. One of the interviews was very interesting:

I lead a group of 26 musicians - we play traditional Palestinian music. But for the last two months we haven't been able to work.

This group, Hamas, believe they are the leaders of Islam. The violin, piano, flute, all these instruments are banned. Only the drum is allowed. They say any other instrument is not mentioned in the Koran.

Hamas have already beaten one of my singers for singing for Fatah.

Far be it from me to try to interpret the Koran. But if Hamas says that believing Muslims must stay away from anything not mentioned in the Koran, may I suggest a few other things that would also be haraam:

AK-47s
Bomb belts
"Homemade" rockets
The Internet
Electricity
Gasoline
Jerusalem

Better be careful. Allah knows best.
