Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Is it permissible to beat the hand drum on the three days of the festival, 'Id al-Fitr and 'Id al-Adha?
The Shaykh:
Hmm?
The questioner:
Is it permissible to beat the hand drum on the three days of the festival, 'Id al-Fitr?
The Shaykh:
No. Beating the hand drum for women is appropriate in marriage, only to announce the marriage. As for the days of the festival, there is no hand drumming in them, nor eating and drinking, nor the remembrance of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), nor visiting among the Muslims. There are no hand drums in them, nor processions, nor… Yes.
