4020. It was narrated from Abu Mālik Ash'ari that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "People among my nation will drink wine, calling it by another name, and musical instruments will be played for them and singing girls (will sing for them). Allāh will cause the earth to swallow them up, and will turn them into monkeys and pigs." (Hasan)

Commentary
Every intoxicant regardless of its name is forbidden.
Change the name does not change the religious ruling of the matter. For example, usury although it is named interest or markup, it is still considered usury.
Tricks do not make an unlawful matter a lawful one, rather the sin becomes more severe.
Playing musical instruments and listening to them is forbidden.
