1302 - حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ، عَنْ عَامِرٍ، قَالَ: شَهِدَ عِيَاضٌ الْأَشْعَرِيُّ عِيدًا بِالْأَنْبَارِ، فَقَالَ: «مَا لِي لَا أَرَاكُمْ تُقَلِّسُونَ كَمَا كَانَ يُقَلَّسُ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ»

Commentary
Taqlis means to indulge in celebrations on a festive occasion through playing national sports or the singing of nationalistic songs by the girls inside their houses. This sort of celebration on festive occasions has been permitted by the Prophet ﷺ. But it is one thing for the girls to beat the Daff (tambourin) and celebrate the heroic deeds of their ancestors in their songs on a happy occasion, and quite another to organize public shows of scanty-clad, half-naked professional women singers, and dancers of enchanting beauty, and indulging in dancing and singing overtly erotic and immoral songs, to the accompaniment of the most fashionable musical instruments of the day. The two things are millions of miles apart, and cannot be compared with each other.
