Imam Ali (AS) said, 'The obligation incumbent upon the hearing is that it not be used for acts of disobedience, for Allah, Mighty and Exalted, has said, "Certainly He has sent down to you in the Book that when you hear Allah's signs being disbelieved and derided, do not sit with them until they engage in some other discourse, or else you [too] will be like them" [Quran 4:140].
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): فَفَرَضَ على السَّمعِ أن لا تُصغِيَ بهِ إلى المَعاصِي ، فقالَ عَزَّ وجلَّ: «وَقَدْ نَزَّلَ عَلَيْكُم فِي الكِتابِ أنْ إذا سَمِعْتُم آياتِ اللّهِ يُكْفَرُ بِها وَيُسْتَهزأُ بِها فَلا تَقْعُدُوا مَعَهُم حَتَّى يَخُوضُوا فِي حَدِيثٍ غَيرِهِ إنَّكُم إذا مِثْلُهُم إنَّ اللّهَ جامِعُ المُنافِقِينَ والكافِرِينَ فِي جَهَنَّمَ جَمِيعاً».
