Question:
A questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, do you see fit to point out that the jibiyah and other such items should not be used at celebrations?
Answer:
Yes, it is all a weapon, like a sword. The jibiyah is like a sword; it kills with its edge. Therefore, it must be sheathed, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) indicated: the sword is sheathed, and the jibiyah is sheathed. Yes.

May Allah reward you,
