Reciting Welcoming Poems at Weddings

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Among some tribes, some young men recite certain welcoming poems at weddings, without any drum, flute, or any instrument of amusement. What is the ruling on this action?

Answer:
If there are no songs or music, and it is merely a welcoming gesture, then there is no harm, if Allah wills. Yes.
