Is it permissible to listen to songs that contain only the bendir and no other musical instruments at any time?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The prohibition of listening to musical instruments, along with its evidence and the statements of scholars, has been previously clarified. Regarding the "bendir" instrument, if it is a duff (frame drum), there is no objection to listening to it. However, if it is among the prohibited wind instruments (mazameer), then it is not permissible to listen to it.
