Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks: Is the singing in the era of the Salaf the same as the songs known today? What is its ruling? And what is the difference between songs with the hand drum and singing?

Answer:
Singing is well known in the past. In the hadith, singing is defined as delight, delight through poetry, and melodious recitation through poetry. This is singing, whether you call it songs or not. All delight is a type of singing, whether it is called songs or called something else. Yes.
