There is a type of drum covered on both sides but with a small opening; is it classified with the hand drum?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Praise be to Allah, and may peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah.
Shaykh, there is a question consisting of two parts; would you allow it?

The Shaykh : Yes?

The questioner : A question consisting of two parts.

The Shaykh : We do not split the question here; the question is one.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good. We have a type of drum that is covered on one side, and the other side is mostly covered except for a small opening. Is this classified with the hand drum or the drum?

The Shaykh : May Allah grant you success. This is classified with the drum, and it may be even more severe, because the small opening allows the sound to come out through it, producing a whistling and a more distinct sound than if it were completely sealed or completely open. Therefore, it is not permissible to use this in the places where the hand drum is used, because the hand drum is undoubtedly milder than this. This produces a resonant sound and is a greater cause of intoxication and enjoyment. Yes.
