The oscillations and stability of a homogeneous self-gravitating rotating cylinder in a toroidal magnetic field are investigated. It is assumed that the field is proportional to the distance to the axis of the cylinder. We show the existence of four infinite discreta spectra of magnetic (or rotational) modes. Rotation stabilizes the magnetic \(m=1\) instability. The magnetic field decreases the growth rate of rotational instability and reduces the interval of unstable wavenumers. If \(m=1\), instability always occurs with the exception of the equipartition state. If \(m>1\), the instability can be suppressed by a sufficiently large magnetic field. Resistivity decreases the growth rate of magnetic instability, but increases the growth rate of rotational instability. For zero wavenumber perturbations secular instability occurs due to the action of resistivity before a neutral point is attained where a second secular instability initiates due to the action of resistivity.
