The ruling on listening to the duff that is open on one side and closed on the other

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is listening to the drum that is open on one side and closed on the other, which is called the duff, permissible?

Answer:
No, except on the night of the wedding, when women strike it among themselves to announce the marriage. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Announce this marriage, and beat the sieve for it.أعلنوا هذا النكاح واضربوا عليه بالغربال
Sunan Ibn Majah 1895Da'if (Darussalam)
The sieve is the duff. Yes.
