Is it permissible to play "Toyor Al-Jannah" songs with rhythm at weddings, due to the unavailability of female chanting groups and for the memorization of the songs?

If by "rhythm" the sound of the daff (tambourine) is meant, then there is no harm in listening to anasheed (Islamic chants) accompanied by it at weddings, because Islamic law has permitted playing the daff at them, citing the hadith: "The distinction between lawful and unlawful is the daff and the voice in marriage." However, if "rhythm" refers to other musical instruments, then it is not permissible to listen to them, neither at weddings nor at other times. There are anasheed free of music that suffice for other forms.
