The Messenger of Allah said: "The distinction between the lawful and the unlawful is the Duff and the voice."  

الترمذي:١٠٨٨ – حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَلْجٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَاطِبٍ الْجُمَحِيِّ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَصْلُ مَا بَيْنَ الْحَرَامِ وَالْحَلاَلِ الدُّفُّ وَالصَّوْتُ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ وَجَابِرٍ وَالرُّبَيِّعِ بِنْتِ مُعَوِّذٍ  

قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَاطِبٍ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ وَأَبُو بَلْجٍ اسْمُهُ يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمٍ وَيُقَالُ ابْنُ سُلَيْمٍ أَيْضًا وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاطِبٍ قَدْ رَأَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَهُوَ غُلاَمٌ صَغِيرٌ

“What differentiates between the lawful and the unlawful is (beating) the Daff and raising the voices (in song) at the time of marriage.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1896)  

الكبرى للنسائي:٥٥٣٧ – أَخْبَرَنَا مُجَاهِدُ بْنُ مُوسَى الْبَغْدَادِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ بَشِيرٍ الْوَاسِطِيَّ عَنْ أَبِي بَلْجٍ وَاسْمُهُ يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَاطِبٍ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «فَصْلُ مَا بَيْنَ الْحَلَالِ وَالْحَرَامِ الدُّفُّ وَالصَّوْتُ فِي النِّكَاحِ»
