The Obligation to Forbid Women Who Sing with Amplifiers at Weddings
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Your Eminence! In some wedding halls, the women’s hall is next to the men’s hall. Is it obligatory to forbid this if one hears the voice of a woman singing from a loudspeaker, or without one?
As for singing with a loudspeaker, it must be prevented. It is obligatory for the authorities to prevent it, and it is obligatory for the owners of the halls to prevent it, and it is obligatory for the families of the groom and bride to prevent it; because of the harm, fitnah (trial, discord or temptation), and annoyance to the neighbors that is in it.
As for the voice coming without a loudspeaker, it is looked into. If fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) is feared, then it is obligatory to keep the women away from the men. The common case is that fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) is not safe from, especially on this night, which is the wedding night, for the souls are prepared for fitnah (trial, discord or temptation). So we see that the women should be separated from the men in a distant place so that they do not hear their voices.
