The question: In her second question, she asks: Is it permissible to use and listen to the drum in celebrations if the hand drum is not available?
The answer: No, it is not permissible to use the drum or any other instruments of amusement, such as the oud, the violin, music, and the like. Only the hand drum is permissible, if it is found; otherwise, there is no need for anything else. It is sufficient to talk and speak, and to sing permissible songs among the women. There is nothing wrong with that. As for the drum, it is not suitable. Yes.
