150.

Are there verses where God encourages believers to use music, dance and singing in their worship?

Bible: Yes       Qur'an: No

Deuteronomy 31:19 – write this song for you, and teach it to the children of Israel; put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me.

Psalm 100:1-2 – 1. make a joyful noise unto the LORD… 2. come before his presence with singing...

Ephesians 5:18-19 – 18. be filled with the Spirit, 19. speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord.

Colossians 3:16 – teaching and admonishing one another, in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

Note: In the Bible there are over 450 verses encouraging, music, dance and singing, but there are none like this at all in the Qur’an.
