Samri (Arabic: سامري) is a folkloric music and dance native to Najd and common as a musical style in Arabian Gulf countries . It involves singing poetry while the daff drum is being played often while two rows of men, seated on the knees, sway and clap to the rhythm. Saudi Arabian dress follows strictly the principles of hijab (the Islamic principle of modesty, especially in dress). ... For rare chilly days, Saudi men wear a camel-hair cloak (bisht) over the top. Women's clothes are decorated with tribal motifs, coins, sequins, metallic thread, and appliques.
