Is dancing permissible if it is among women and accompanied by lawful singing?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is dancing permissible if it is among women, and if it is accompanied by lawful singing?
The Shaykh : I do not see dancing as permissible for a girl who tempts women with her dancing. We have heard that some reprehensible things have occurred when a young girl stands up, twisting and writhing as she dances, and that some women stand up to embrace her, hold her, and kiss her. This is a trial.
As for the old woman who is not much noticed, I hope there is no blame on her if she stands up and dances.
