I've already seen through Youtube Byzantine chants played with an instrument, sth that seems to be a little bell. One I think was Greek, and another, which follows, is Arabic:

What is that and is it allowed?

I imagined that, but it seemed more a folkloric instrument. But now I perceive that is a censer. lol

Thanks.
