What is the ruling on poetic exchanges that take place at parties and weddings?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on the poetic exchanges that take place at parties and weddings? Is it permissible to listen to them and attend?

Answer:
No, these are from idle amusement. These poetic exchanges are from idle amusement because they involve singing voices, and also their meanings do not contain any beneficial meaning. There is only praise, no blame, no satire, and nothing useful in them. They are idle amusement; they are from idle amusement. Yes, and they are from singing, for they contain delight, because they are performed with singing voices. Yes.
