In this paper, we investigate an analysis of the stability of a basic flow of streaming magnetic fluids in the presence of an oblique magnetic field is made. We have use the linear analysis of modified Kelvin-Helmholtz instability by the addition of the influence of mass transfer and heat across the interface. Problems equations model is presented where nonlinear terms are neglected in model equations as well as the boundary conditions. In the case of a oblique magnetic field, the dispersion relation is obtained and discussed both analytically and numerically and the stability diagrams are also obtained. It is found that the effect of the field depends strongly on the choice of some physical parameters of the system. Regions of stability and instability are identified. It is found that the mass and heat transfer parameter has a destabilizing influence regardless of the mechanism of the field.
