Ruling on women playing the hand drum before and after marriage

Question:
The questioner says in her final question: Is it permissible to play the hand drum before the day of the wedding or after it?
Knowing that I have heard that it is not played except on the day of the wedding only.

Answer:
The Sunnah is to play it on the wedding night, this is the Sunnah, and likewise for the slave women on the days of the festival there is nothing wrong with it, but as for anything else, leaving it is safer, leaving it is the safer course for women, the Sunnah is to play it to announce the marriage on the wedding night, or if it is on the day of the festival, as some of the slave women did in the presence of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and when Abu Bakr objected to them, he said: This indicates that it is permissible for slave women and women to play the hand drum on the day of the festival, the festival of breaking the fast, the festival of sacrifice, and likewise in marriage to announce the marriage, but as for the drum, no, one does not listen to the drum, but the hand drum with one face, yes.
