From the 1944 film Man Al Jani (Who's the Criminal? ) The dancer is Gamalat Hassan, who used to work for Badia Masabni and was a member of Badia's troupe. She is performing with a Daf, which is a large round middle eastern instrument shaped like a tambourine but a Daf doesn't have any cymbals on it, as opposed to a Riq which is similar though smaller 
‏and it has several sets of brass cymbals all around.
