The Meaning of Permissible Singing in the Marginalia of al-Rawd al-Murba'

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, says: The commentator mentioned in the marginalia of al-Rawd al-Murba', in his explanation of the phrase "and he does not spend his wealth in what is forbidden or in what is of no benefit," that one should not spend his wealth in what is of no benefit, even if it is permissible, such as permissible singing. So what is meant by permissible singing here?

Answer:
This is based on the fact that there is some singing that is permissible, such as singing at a wedding, women singing at a wedding, and the chanting of camels while traveling, the chanting of camels while traveling. This is permissible singing; one chants while traveling at night so that the camels walk behind him or so that drowsiness does not overtake the travelers. This is permissible; it is a single voice, not a collective voice. Likewise, there is the nana' (a type of song) on the occasion of marriage and a wedding. This is among the permissible things if this is what is intended. Yes.
