Question

The ringtones available on my mobile phone contain music, so I am searching for an alternative which is not classed as music. I found this ringtone which simulates the sound of a classical telephone: http://www.zedge.net/ringtone/425057/old-school-ringtone/

Can you please listen to the ringtone on the link I provided and inform me if it is permissable? Does it matter that it is not a recording of a real telephone, but rather a computer simulation?

Answer

It is okay.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
