Beating the hand drum and the drum at weddings
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I seek Allah’s forgiveness. In some weddings, there is what is called al-sayr, which is before the men, and it is said that some scholars—I am saying this to clarify.
Answer:
It is clearly established from the Sunnah that it is permitted for women, specifically, to beat the hand drum, specifically the duff, which is the sieve. The sieve is what is closed on one side and open on the other. As for what is closed on both sides, that is called the drum. This is not permissible; it is one of the instruments of amusement. This is restricted to women on the occasion of a wedding, among themselves, where the men do not hear them, and with the duff specifically, not the drum or instruments of amusement. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah have mercy on him
