"One who has deep eemaan (faith) and knowledge usually remains quiet while in times of difficulty. One who has less eemaan (faith) and knowledge causes loud noise. Just like the ocean. have you ever seen the waves of a high tide, and how they clamor when they arrive at the beach and strike the rocks? Because the ocean near the beach is shallow, even a kid can challenge it, while in the depth of the sea it’s quiet, peaceful and full of majesty. The deeper you get in Iman and knowledge, the more peaceful you become."
- Yaser Birjas

A Drum Which is Covered From Both Sides
By Shaykh al-‘Uthaymeen | 
Somebody asked,
"There is a kind of drum which is covered on one side, and the second side is covered apart from a small opening. Is this similar to the daff?"
The Shaykh replied,
This is more like the tabl (a kind of drum which is covered on both sides) and may be worse, because the sound comes out from this small opening which makes the sound more refined than if it was all sealed or all open. So it is not permissible to use this drum in the same manner as the daff is used, because the daff is not as bad, undoubtedly, whereas this gives a very refined tone and makes it more entertaining and intoxicating.
(Liqaa’aat al-Baab al-Maftooh by Shaykh Muhammad ibn Saalih al-‘Uthaymeen, p. 20.)
