What is the ruling on tambourine songs in electronic wedding invitations?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Playing the duff (a type of drum) is considered mustahabb (recommended) or (permissible) for women at weddings and similar occasions. For men, it is a matter of scholarly disagreement, with the majority opinion favoring its permissibility. As for playing the duff outside of weddings, there is a difference of opinion, and it is more cautious to refrain from it. Video clips designed to invite people to a wedding ceremony do not fall under the ruling of playing the duff. However, it is permissible to use the duff in them for those who consider playing it permissible in general, though it is more cautious to refrain.
