Accepted Answer

Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the World; and may His blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all his Family and Companions.

Music is absolutely forbidden. But, its prohibition becomes more emphatic and the sin becomes greater when music is played along with the Names and Attributes of Allah. This is combining a form of worship (reciting the Names of Allah) with playing music which is the Satan's pipe. This is very far from what the Names and Attributes of Allah deserve from us all.
Allah knows best.
