Imam al-Bukari narrated in his Sahih, in the chapter concerning The Two Eids , from ‘A’isha رضي الله عنها who said:
روى الإمام البخاري في صحيحه في كتاب العيدين, باب الحِراب والدَرَق يوم العيد, حديث رقم 949, عن عائشة قالت: دخل علىّ رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وعندي جاريتان تغنّيان بغناء بُعاث فاضطجع على الفراش وحوّل وجهه, ودخل أبو بكر فانتهرني, وقال: مِزمار الشيطان عند النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم, فأقبل عليه رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم, فقال: دعْهما,فلما غفل غمزتهما,فخرجتا
The Messenger of Allah (صلى الله عليه وسلم)came into my room when there where with me two girls who were singing/chanting [تغنّيان ] the songs [or poems] or Bi‘àth [the day of a great battle between the two Arab tribes of Medina before the advent of Islam]. He laid down on his mat and turned away his face and Abu Bakr came in and scolded me and said, “[What is this?] The sound of Satan in the presence of the Prophet( صلى الله عليه وسلم)!” He said [The Messenger of Allah"], “Leave them alone.” When he was not paying attention, I signaled to them and they went out.
