If you are at a wedding and they bring in a male or female singer, what is obligatory to do?

The questioner : I mean, if there is no man among them who stands up and teaches or the like, and the male or female singer comes. Well done.

The Shaykh : If they bring in a male and female singer, then it is permissible for me to stand up.

The questioner : No, before that, for example, the people of the gathering plan to bring the Shaykh so that he speaks. If they do not bring the Shaykh, they bring a female singer.

The Shaykh : That is not correct, that is not correct.

The questioner : It happens, O Shaykh.

The Shaykh : It may happen; I do not say it definitely happens, but if we know that the matter is between this Shaykh speaking or this singer speaking, of course, we tell the Shaykh to take advantage of the situation.

The questioner : The nasheeds, I mean, have started to spread; I mean, the youth are spreading nasheeds with enthusiasm and without any beating around the bush or anything. Good.

The Shaykh : This is coming to us now, listen, listen.
