Abstract
The
implementation of Islamic law, art, and entertainment has gained a various
highlight. However, art in Islam have shown its glorious identities and
progress. Islam, through its preaching of the main source, Al-Quran, really

is created beautifully and harmoniously. In Aceh, the Council of Indonesian
Ulama (MUI) of Aceh Province formed a team or a special committee consisting of
21 experts to arrange a treatise, especially those relating to the art of
music, dance and singing. As the result, they had resulted a book published by

in the later
period.
