Does what was narrated from Amir ibn Sa'd, may Allah be pleased with him, regarding hearing the singing of slave girls at a wedding, and the saying of the two Companions: "If you wish, listen with us; and if you wish, go, for we have been permitted amusement at weddings," indicate the permissibility of listening to women's voices at weddings, or is it restricted to slave girls?
