Eid Milad-un-Nabi or Al-Mawlid is known as the festival of celebrating the birthday of Prophet Muhammad PBUH. It occurs on the 12th Rabi-ul-Awal. Nowadays, many muslims practise it. Some even go on to call it a duty of a muslim to celebrate this day; But have we ever stopped and considered the validity of this festival?
Most Muslim scholars are of the view that celebrating a fully blown festival is considered a bidaa. They cite that during the times of Prophet Muhammed himself such festivals were never celebrated. Also, In support of this argument i the fact that even during the times of the companions of Muhammed PBUH such celebrations were not common and widespread. Leading to an opinion that Eid Milad-un-Nabi or Al-Mawlid is wrong to celebrate.
Many say the that this celebration is not rightly an ‘Eid’ (Islamic Festival) thus it is downright unlawful to celebrate during these times.
The flip side of this coin are the supporters of these celebrations. One of the most ardent supporters of this festival is Ibn-Kathir (a celebrated muslim scholar) who says:
“Ibn Kathir says in his “Mawlid,” page 30: “The Prophet’s (s) uncle al-’Abbas (r) composed poetry praising the birth of the Prophet (s), in which are found the following lines: `When you were born, the earth was shining, and the firmament barely contained your light, and we can pierce through, thanks to that radiance and light and path of guidance.’ ”
There are also other supporters of this version which seem reasonable enough.
Now lets try to look at this logically, sending praise and good wishes to Prophet Muhammed PBUH is fine by all means but one shouldnt make a mountain out of a mole hill (like huge processions, Praise Poems/Songs on Loud Speakers/Disrupting City Life/Abandoning Salah ), especially if there are not clear cut explanations from Quran.
But these are just my views.. What about yours? Do you celebrate this day? If you do, Why do you think its allowed in Islam? If not, Why do you think its dis-allowed? Share your Thoughts in the comments section.

Wa alaikumussalam. The fact remains that we can not love prophet more than those who saw him and got a first hand information from him. No consensus was reached on the exact date of the birth of Prophet Muhammad, but it is reliably agreed upon that he dies on the 12th day of Muharamm and thus what are we celebrating? is it the day he was borne 12th Muharram (which is not certain) or the day he dies (which was certain). Love to our dear Prophet is centered on 1. obeying him on what he commands, 2. leave what he forbids.3. accept him as the slave and messenger of Allah.4. Follows his action. It was authoritatively reported that Prophet Muhammad use to assume voluntary fasting on every Mondays and Fridays of which he said, Monday is the he was borne and Thursday is the day good deeds are taken to the Lord of mankind. if you love him do as he do fast on those days with sole intention of following his footsteps as the one love most because of his exalted position as the Prophet and Messenger of Allah.
It is also pertinent to know that this celebration started after more than four (4) decade of the demise of our beloved Prophet. To me this celebration doesn't worth it.

Sahaba karam loved Holy Prophet (PBUH) more than anybody else in this world. none of us can love him to that extent like the sahabaz did. even after the death of Holy Prophet (PBUH), Sahabaz never celebrated this day.THEN WHY DO WE DO IT? offering nafals, reciting Quran and darood is the best gift we can give. but no, people make it more difficult by doing dacorations, and making (PAHARIYAAN) and other stuff which have no history in ISLAM.

Yes sister. I'm not sure whether to celebrate or not. But in my opinion its good to celebrate in a way tat we are trying to spread the messages of Prophet Muhammed(pbuh), rather than going for a huge processions and shoutings through microphones as seen in most parts of South Asia. We might celebrate in a manner we give people pamphlets and inform them in the best way what is Islam. But we need to make sure than no kufr and bida'a is incorporated in our celebration. Most of our friends who claim to be Ahlusunna(me also among that) doesnt really follow the path of the Prophet

Say, "In the bounty of Allah and in His mercy – in that let them rejoice; it is better than what they accumulate." (Qur'an 10:58).
'But the bounty of the Lord – rehearse and proclaim!' (Quran 93:11).
And what is the biggest bounty/mercy?
'And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], except as a mercy to the worlds.' (Qur'an 21:107).
'And we have exalted for you your remembrance.' (Qur'an 94:4).
Allah Almighty says: 'And teach them to remember the days of Allah.' (Qur'an 14:5).
What are the Ayaam (Days) of Allah? Imam Baihaqi narrates in his Shuyub ul Iman that Prophet salala hu alayhi wasallam said: 'The Days of Allah are his blessings and signs.' (Tafsir Ruh ul Ma'ani under Qur'an 14:5).
The days when Anbiya are born are days of Salam in the sight of Allah.'So Peace on him the day he was born, the day that he dies, and the day that he will be raised up to life.' (Qur'an 19:15).
Expressing happiness and celebrating the Prophet on his birthday causes even unbelievers, by Allah's favor and mercy, to gain some benefit. In Sahih Bukhari, that every Monday, Abu Lahab in his grave is released from punishment because he freed his handmaid Thuwayba when she brought him the news of the Prophet's birth.
This hadith is mentioned in Bukhari in the book of Nikah, and Ibn Kathir mentions it in his books Sirat al-Nabi Vol.1, p. 124, Mawlid al-Nabi p. 21, and al-Bidaya p. 272-273.
The hafiz Shamsuddin Muhammad ibn Nasiruddin ad-Dimashqi wrote on this the following verses in his book Mawrid as-sadi fi Mawlid al-Hadi: "If this, a kafir who was condemned to hell eternally with "Perish his hands" [surat 111], is said to enjoy a respite every Monday because he rejoiced in Ahmad: what then do you think of the servant who, all his life, was happy with Ahmad, and died saying, "One"?"

Why some people accept and some unaccept the celebration of the prophet ( pbuhh)? What is your opinion?
Praise be to Allaah.
There is nothing in the Qur’aan to say that we should celebrate the Mawlid or birthday of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). The Prophet himself (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) did not do this or command anyone to do it, either during his lifetime or after his death. Indeed, he told them not to exaggerate about him as the Christians had exaggerated about Jesus (upon whom be peace). He said: “Do not exaggerate about me as the Christians exaggerated about the son of Maryam. I am only a slave, so say, ‘The slave of Allaah and His Messenger.’” (Reported by al-Bukhaari). What has been reported is that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) made the day of his birth a day of worship, which is different to celebration. He was asked about fasting on Mondays, and he said: “That is the day on which I was born and the day on which I was entrusted with the Mission or when I was first given Revelation.” (Reported by Muslim, al-Nisaa’i and Abu Dawood).
Moreover, we know that the Sahaabah (may Allaah be pleased with them) were the people who loved the Prophet most. Was it reported that Abu Bakr, who was the closest of people to him and the one who loved him the most, celebrated the birthday of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)? Was it reported that ‘Umar, who ruled for twelve years, or ‘Uthmaan, did this? Was it reported that ‘Ali, his relative and foster son, did this? Was it reported that any of the Sahaabah did this? No, by Allaah! Is it because they were not aware of its importance, or did they not truly love the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)? No one would say such a thing except one who has gone astray and is leading others astray.
Did any of the imaams – Abu Haneefah, Maalik, al-Shaafi’i, Ahmad, al-Hasan al-Basri, Ibn Seereen – do this or command others to do it or say that it was good? By Allaah, no! It was not even mentioned during the first and best three centuries. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said in a saheeh hadeeth: “The best of mankind are my generation (or my century), then those who come after them, then those who come after them. Then there will come a people who will not care if their testimony comes before their oath or vice versa (i.e., they will not take such matter seriously).” (Reported by al-Bukhaari, Muslim and al-Tirmidhi). The celebration of the Prophet’s birthday appeared many centuries later, when many of the features of true religion had vanished and bid’ah had become widespread.
Thus this celebration became a sign of one’s love for the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)? But can it be possible that the Sahaabah, the imaams and the people of the best three centuries were unaware of it, and it was only those who came later who were aware of its importance? What the Qur’aan tells us is that love of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) is demonstrated by following the guidance he brought. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
“Say (O Muhammad): ‘If you (really) love Allaah, then follow me, Allah will love you and forgive you your sins. And Allaah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
Say: ‘Obey Allaah and the Messenger.’ But if they turn away, then Allaah does not like the disbelievers.” [Aal ‘Imraan 3:31-32].
The first aayah explains that love is just a claim, but the proof of sincerity is following what the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) brought. The second aayah reaffirms the importance and necessity of obeying Allaah and His Messenger. Hence Allaah ended the aayah with a very stern warning in which those who refuse to obey are described as kaafirs, and Allah does not love the disbelievers. We ask Allaah to keep us safe from that. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) told us of the danger of not obeying him, and the danger of adding to what he brought. The celebration of Mawlid or his birthday is indeed an addition to what he brought – as all the scholars agree. He said: “The best of speech is the Book of Allaah, and the best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad. The most evil of things are those which are newly-invented (in religion), and every innovation is a going astray.” (Reported by Muslim and al-Nisaa’i).
We ask Allaah to protect us from bid’ah and to bless us by helping us to follow. Allaah knows best. May Allaah bless our Prophet Muhammad.

Assalamo alaikum to all of u..
First of all i have a question for those people who celebrate Eid Miladunabi that does they know from where this celebration took place? Where it started & what was the reasons behind this? Does anyone knows about the reality of this event? I think if you know that all then there’s no need to celebrate it..!!
& secondly i agree with the people who said that did our 4 Khalifaiy Rashdeen celebrate it? Then did Sahab Sahabaheen celebrate it? Then did any Taba Taba’een celebrate it? The answer is NO.. Because there’s no proof,evidence written or oral available in our history of Islam. When out Prophet himself have never celebrate his birthday or nor said to celebrate it then how could this event took place..?? have you ever thought on it? I know from where is started but if u don’t then don’t hesitate to contact me.
Over all agr aap itne he Aashiq e Rasool ho or apne ap ko maanty ho or kehte ho to sb se pehle to apne ap ko waisa banao jese wo log they,then apne amal jis mein parhna parhana ata hai os ki kasrat ko barhao na k apna way change kro.
There’s no true behind this event & we can’t say if,but,however etcc if there’s nothing mentioned in Quran & Islam.There’s no so its mean no You can’t say yes then.Think on it..

Assalamo Alaikum.. It is very clear that we have to follow the Qur an and Sunnah to take the straight path. My question now is , Did Prophet Muhammad Sallalahu alaihi wasalam celebrated his Birthday during his time?? If your answer is “No” so we HAVE TO FOLLOW HIS PRACTICE. Does it make sense?? Otherwise it could be considered as innovation or Bid’ah. May Allah Guide us to the right path.

well see use logic guys, celebrating in a way how Sahaba r.a celebrated or celebrate by having dinner make sweet dish have a roza do charity visit families what's Wrong you not inventing any thing new, well see this is not a must to do a jalsah jaloos for celebration but celebrate in a way which others see as celebration lke me in my country when our brother do this jalsa its like some one had done wrong to them they are crying to or demonstration to changes they are facing hard ship , the whole concept should be considerate for non- Muslim, no one stop you to celebrate such a beautiful day we alwayshave our own BD parties, for prophet s.a.w we should celebrate by thanking Allah, and celebrate in a right way, Giving up salah etc is total wrong. NAAT bayans on this day is best let us revive our Love for our Prophet s.a.w.
NO one says its a farz or Sunnah if some one says he she is wrong. as long what I know its just a celebration as long is not bidah and shirk involved I will say celebrate let you kids know about this beautiful day of our Prophet s.a.w. App ne hotye Doniyaa na Hoti, Yes doniya Mere Nabi. S.a.w k liye e banayi gahi hai.
I will say lastly shame on who celebrate his birthday party and don't celebrate this day of Prophet s.a.w But celebrate nice let people know Promote Islam peace and love, SPread the msg of Our Prophet s.a.w tell seerat of Prophet s.a.w make food give to poors, join masjid Majlis, Light your house masjid, put smile on wear new cloths, pray, Dawah others, Roza, buy things to your children becus its Prophet s.a.w birth day. this is what I call celebration.
PLS DOn't DO demonstration make other non muslim feel you are demonstration for being wrongly treated.

I don't agree with people celebrating it, as if you remember the incident of Hazrat Dawood A.S. when informed to Holy Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ و سلم ٰٰ he celebrated by fasting. he didn't disrupted any traffic or teased neighbours by reciting Quran/Naat and khutbaats at 12 oclock at night. If you want to celebrate something, celebrate as been told, there is no Quranic verse or Hadith where we get the support of gathering a huge number and disturbing the peace. Whoever does it for whatever reason is WRONG.

I'm sorry this is long, but I plead with you to read it. I agree with you saying that mentioning the life (seerat) and reciting poems praising of the Prohphet PBUH is a good thing. Everything that is blown out of proportion is undesired. I agree with that too..
But on what basis did you call this Bidaa? + how would you define Bidaa? There are so many Bidaas that, unfortunately, many scholars describe as Sunnah! They even go further to state that not following such "sunnah" is act that results in "ithm".
Lastly, How is it justified the that the so called Islamic world celebrate the birthdays of monarchs, national days, independence day…etc with all sorts of extravagance. Some scholars (or should I say muppets in the hands of rulers) go to say its Wajib to participate in such celebration and then frown upon celebrating the birth of the best creations of all. the birth of Allah's beloved one and the birth that marks the independence of mankind?
To those who say there is no clear cut indication from the Quran that such an act is allowed. You forget that the origin of things and acts in Islam that they are allowed UNLESS there is something that indicates that are forbidden. Not the other way round my dear friends.
Unfortunately, many scholars that issue fatwa frowning upon such celebrations do so because they are controlled by the state. and such states happen to be in ideological and political conflict with the states that happen to celebrate those blessed occasions. I don't thinks its much to do with it being a Bidaa or not as much as being part of a political agenda..
I see no harm in celebrating such an occasion. If this occasion is not worthy of a celebration, then what it? As for it being a bidaa, I think Muslims should think twice before following any tom, dick and harry with a turban and a beard and maybe consider the school of thought that states to know whether or not an act would be haram, bidaa..etc one should look at the act in question in conjunction with the Holy Quran and the confirmed Sunnah. If there is a conflict then that act should be refrained from. If no conflict appears, then why refrain from it?

There is no proof for this celebration in Islam.. In Islam only 2 Eid is allowed & it is Sunnah of Rasool(S.A) as well as Sahaba/ Thabaeen / Tabathabaeen's. The problem is people must know what sunnah means for them, what their ancestor's have done is not Sunnah if their teachings are against our beloved Prophet(s.a)…..

i think any opportunity to educate people on the prophet-his birth, life and message and personality should be accepted any true follower of the prophet irrespective of the name given to it. we do organise conferences and call it names, people never rejected this, a whole lot of things are done today that the prophet never did. the qur-an says what the prophet ask as to do we should take it and do it, but what he forbids us from doing we should abhore it. aside these two if there is something that the prophet did not do but did not say we should not do then it needs a different ruling which is relative to whether the activities involved are islamic or not. people use what happens in their places to generalise, which should not be so. people gather to do mawlid just like any ordinary preaching session, educating people about the prophet. ibn taymiya in maj-mu-atul fatawa vol. 23 page 163 approved it and also in his book necessity of the right path page 2656. his student ibn qayyim also approved it in his book mawlidi aroos ,wherein he wrote a poem to be recoted in praise of the prophet, he also approved it in his book madaariji saalikiin.. imam ibn katheer also approved it in page 19 of his book zikr mawlidi rasuul. imam sayuuti approved it in his book husni maqsid fii mawlidi nabi. imam hajar asqalani said if it does not include unislamic things then there is nothing wrong with it. we all read and agree that ALLAH asks us to love the prophet , the prophet said same, and even made a feast and received praises, and narrated the stories of the previous prophets, HE S A A W did this when HE was 40 and received messengership…this alone is enough. but to me what is important is for us to know that the prophet said we should not do is what makes something not permissible, not the saying the prophet did not do…i always try to find a hadith where HE S A A W have ever gathered people to pray tahajud as a sunna during the last ten days of ramadan. this we do today, we celebrate and mark anniversaries of our associations and other things, we now have rules for arabic grammer-nahw-, we now have rules for tajweed, we compete in qur-anic recitations to get awards, we take certifcates for learning in islam,a whole lot of things, we do without asking if the prophet or HIS companions have done same before. finaly i will suggest we condemn unlawful things that may be found in some celebrations and not just mawlid itself…I HEARD THERE IS A NEW OCASSION MARKED TO COMMEMORATE SAYYIDA AA-ISHA R T A. THE PROPHET’S WIFE, THESE PEOPLE ARE CALLED ABNAA-U A’ISHAT, and they are counteracting shi-a opinions about her…am waiting to see what people will say about this initiative

Lia Ahmed Allah ke azaab se daro. RasulAllah Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam Beshak Zinda hai aur aapka milad kaynaat ke zarre zarre manate hai. Maut to toh jab tumhe aayegi tab tumhari kabr pe to koi fatiha bhi na pade. Tauba karo Aur aise alfaz dubara mat likhna! TU ZINDA HAI WALLAH TU ZINDA HAI!

Assalam alaikum , when you read about Islam please don’t associate yourself to any jamaat my whole family was in bidaa to the extent my aqeeqa was done in darga 1000 miles away from the place where I was born. But when I read hadeeth and Quran with open mind Allah helped us out to come out of mess where every things comes indirectly through graves. Where as Quran says Allah tells us, you remember me and I will remember you ask me and will answer your prayers. Milad is one of the bidaa ( innovation ) which is not there in Islam of mohemmed(saws). To what extent we will keep quite what ever that goes on in Hindu temples goes in Muslim dargas there all pandits are Brahmin where every sajjada in every major darga is Shia. Shias are mushrekeen they ask for help besides allah from 5 mohemmed (saws) ali (RA) Fatima (RA) hasen and hussain (RA) and every grave they come across.

Aur is din ko mnane ka mqsd??? Kya isse Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wasallam khush hote hain ya unhe koi faida pohonchta hai??? Iska jawaab un k 'chahne waale' de zara…
Maut k baad sirf dua kaam askti hai… To durood bhejo unpr betahaasha agar unse itni he mohabbat krne ka dawa krte ho…

Thus from the above discussion it can be seen that Allah Almighty has placed an ehsan, favour on us and in Surah Yunus we are expressly commanded to celebrate and rejoice this favour which is described as rahma and fadl. Other verses in the Holy Qur’an explicitly define this rahma and fadl as referring to the Holy Prophet (saw) thus celebrating his coming is a Divne command. The Holy Qur’an also singles out the birthday as an important event and worthy of mention. In Surah Maryam Allah tala commands us to send salaam on the day Sayyidina Yahya was born ie his birthday.
“And send salaam on him the day he was born, and the day he dies and the day he wil be raised up to life (again)” (19:15)
If the celebration of birthdays is an innovation and prohibited then why would Allah Ta’ala single out the birthday of Hadhrat Yahyah (a.s)? It is to be remembered that these are the words of Allah (swt) and He is the one who is sending salaam on to His messenger and clearly signifying his birthday as a peculiar and significant day.. If Allah Almighty is ordering mankind to convey these salaams on to Sayyidina Yahya (as) how can one say it is prohibited to do the same for the Holy Prophet (saw) on his birthday who is the last and greatest of all Prophets? A birthday is significant in that a day is singled out for collective worship. One type of salaam is salaam ul-aam, a general one and the other type salaam ul qass which is sent together collectively. Although we are encouraged to send salaat and salaam on the Holy Prophet (saw) every day, having one day in particular means a collective act of worship takes place which is always superior. Indeed salaam can also be viewed as a gift from Allah to His Prophets just as we give gifts to each other on our birthdays. The same commandment has also been given in respect of Sayyinia Isa (a.s) in Surah Maryam
“And send salaam on me the day I was born and the day I died and the day I shall be rasied alive” (19:33)
Part two of this article will discuss tafsir works of reliable and authentic leading aima with particular reference to Surah Yunus, (10:58).

I think that to talk abt birth and celebrate and not caring about the purpose for which Prophet (PBUH) came is not fair at all.Islam is not the name of formalities, it is the practical way of life.

Wahan Wahabio ka qabza hai, aur jab Wahabi Arab par qabiz huey to Arab ka nam badal kar Saudi Arab rakha, tama Sahab Kram ke mazarat aur qabro ko mismar kardia aur muhum chali Sunnio k khilaf aur Qabar parast ka nam dia.
Ab ap kahenge k hamein wahan jane se roka q nai jata… to bhai kisi musalman ko, khwah wo kisi b firqe se ho siwaey Qadyanio ke, Bait Ullah jane se koi nai rok sakta. Han ap ye dekhlein k Madina Munawwara me Roza e Mubarak k samne ap Fatiha b nai par sakte Durood-o-Salam b nai parh sakte.
Saudi awam ko Wahabi nam se pukara jata tha, 1991 me Shah fahad k kehne par unko ab Wahabi nai pukara jata, Wahabi k meaings “Gustakh-e-Rasool” k hain.

1. Saudi Arebiya me vahabiyo ki haqumat hai…jo Aarab link k SECOUND WORLD WAR k baad k baad westurn countries k support se bani..
2. history utha kar dekho, unhone vahabiyo k sasan ane k baad kini masjide destroy (sahid) ki.???.kyu sahaba k roze-pak destroy (sahid) kiye gaye ????
3. aaj wo log islam k kanun ke khilaf dunyake bade bade GUNAHGARO ko panah de rahe hai
4. wo kuchh nek logo ko chhod kar, havas/zinakhori & westurn countries k bheje gaye sabab me dube huve hai
5. aap unki baat karte ho…..jo AHLE-BAIT he hi nahi…..
WAHA AHLE-BAIT BHI REHTE HAI….AHMED RAZA(reh.al.) ki HISTORY dekho unhone haram sarif k imam k pichhe namaz kyu nhi padhi ..& saja ke pehle 1 raat me dono hatho se alag-alag masail likh kar do moti-moti kitab elikh dali….

Mere Bhai eik aur mudda uthate hain…. Kehte hain k thik hai agar ap ke references agar sahi b hain to kia Sahaba Kram, Tabaeen, Taba Tabaeen ko is baat ka ilm nai tha, kia wo so rahe the (Na-aozobillah)… unho ne q nai manai….
to mere bhai, apne Nabi SAW k bare me to bharpoor parha hoga bauhat kuch parha hoga, lekin kia apne Sahaba kram aur Aulia Allah k bare me parha, parha to kitna parha… Sab kuch nai parha apne na apko bataya gaya… Sahaba kram ne b Milad-un-Nabi PBUH ki fazeelat bayan ki hai, me research kar raha hoon, talash kar raha hoon aisi tahareer jo sahaba kram se releted hon, jaise hi milengi ap ki khidmat me pesh karonga inshallah…
Lekin eik bat generaly me ap se poochta hoon… Apko kiski sunat par amal karna hai, Nabi SAW ki ya phr sahaba kram ki…. Jab hamare pyare Nabi SAW ne is din ki fazeelat bayan kardi to phr baqi kia bachta hai… Sahaba karam ne b bauhat se aise kam nai kiey jo hamare Nabi SAW ne kiey…. Taif k shehar me Aap SAW ko patharo se mara gaya lekin aap SAW ne un k liey Dua farmai, Konse sahaba ko Mara gaya aur unhone Dua farmai ho… Agar ap k zehan me Hazrat Bilal Habshi RA ka waqya aye to yad rahe k Hazrat Bilal Habshi RA p jab zulm kia gaya to unho ne sirf saha Allah ki raza k liey, Dua unhone b nai farmai…

Ao ab kuch Ajar o Sawab ki baat karein…
Misal dete hain k Eid Milad un Nabi PBUH to Abu Lahab ne manai thi aur woh sab se bara dushamn tha. to Tum b Milad un Nabi PBUH manate ho to tum b mushrik huey…
Abu Lahab ne Khushi manai q k Ap SAW ki nabooat ka use mallom nai tha aur khushi ki wajha ye thi k un ka bhatija is dunia me aya hai… aur apni ungli k ishare se apni bandi ko azad kardia… Ap jante hain use sirf itni si baat ka kia ajar mila… us Dushman-e-Akbar ko Allah tala jahanum ki aag me jala raha hai lekin har peer k din yani Monday ko, uski usi ungli se, jis k ishare se us ne apni bandi azad kia tha, Thanda aur meetha pani Alalh tala ata farmata hai…
Kia ab kisi ko koi shak Eid Milad un Nabi PBUH manane par… Koi aur mudda ho to woh b zahir kijey take us b research ho sake…

I can understand wht ur trying to say… Ap ghaliban un logo ki bat kar rahe hain jinho ne had par kardi hai…
1) Khana-e-Kaba Aur Masjid-e-Nabwi ka model banana aur us ka tawaf karna.
2) Naat Khwani me aise ashar kehna jo shirk ki taraf ishara karein
3) Milad un Nabi PBUH ko farz ka darja de kar is k paband hona aur na manane par apne ap ko gunahgar tasleem karna
4) Shia hazrat ki tarz ke Taziye banana aur nikalna
aur bauhat se points hain jo k sara sar ghalat hain aur shirk hai… to bhai ap point out to karo… aise shakhsyat k wajha se ap sab ko lapetdete ho…
Rahi baat Eid Milad un Nabi PBUH ki to bhai sirf eik example donga me apko… Kitni tarha namazein parhte hain hum…. Farz, Sunnat, Nafil…
Farz = Allah ka hukum aur ada na karne par Gunah.
Sunnat = Nabi kareem PBUH ada kia karte the, Kuch zaroori hain aur kuch nahi
Nafil = Zaroroi nahi, lekin ada karenge to ajar o sawab hai aur na karenge to gunah b nai, koi had muqarar nai
isi tarha se do Eid hum par farz hai, yani Allah tallah ne hukum dia hai k isey manao, aur Friday ka din ‘Choti Eid’ kehlata hai agar apki knowledge me na ho to, aur ye sunnat hai, Melad-un-Nabi ka koi hukum nahi lekin hum isey apni khushi se apni mohobat se manate hain… Ajar-o-sawab ki b koi lalach nai manane walo ko… maqsad sirf Allah aur us k Rasool PBUH ko yad karna us ka zikar karna aur un se mohobat ka izhar karna hai….
Eik aur point hazir hai… Ap jante hain k Friday aur Monday ki kia hesiat hai Islam ki roh se…
Friday:
Allah ne dunya ko takhleeq kia
Allah ne Hazrat Adam AS ko banaya
Allah ne Hazrat Adam AS ki maghfirat farmai
aur bauhat se waqyat ronma hue jo Allah tala se related hain.
Monday:
Aap SAW ki pedaish ka din
Pehli wahi nazil hui
Fateh Makkkah ka din
Aap SAW dunya se parda farma gaye
aur bauhat se waqyat ronma hue jo Aap SAW se related hain
Aap SAW Monday ka roza rakha karte the aur jo k sunnat hai, wajha poochne par Aap SAW ne khusoosi tor par apni Padaish ka din bataya…
Should i have to describe more……

“Law laaka law laaka maa khalaqtal aflaak” ……..لولاك لولاك ما خلقت الأفلاك
Hadith:al-Hakim in his Mustadrak, Baihaqi in Dalail an-Nubuwah, Tabarani in his Kabeer, Abu Na’eem in his Hilya and ibn Asakir in Tarikh Damishq report from Sayyiduna Ameer al-Mu’mineen ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab Farooq al-A’dham (radiyallahu ta’ala anhu) that:
The Prophet of Allah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) said: “Allah said: When Adam made the mistake, he asked: O Allah! I ask you for the sake of Muhammad to forgive me. Allah said: O Adam! How do you recognise Muhammad when I have not yet created him? Adam said: O Allah! When you created me and blew into me the spirit, I lifted my head and saw written on the ‘Arsh ‘La ilaaha illallah Muhammadur rasoolullah’. So, I got to know that you would only join your name with him who is most beloved to you. Allah said: O Adam! You have spoken the truth. Indeed Muhammad is more beloved to me than anything and when you asked me for his sake, I pardoned you. If Muhammad was not in existence, I would not have created you” (Also from Imam Subki in Shifa as-Siqam and Shihab in Naseem)
So people ,,,,,,, dunya kay sab say pehle insan hazrat Adam(allihisalam) ki toba bhi huzoor(saw) ka naam liye baghair qubool nahi hui to Jo Allah talla ko jo itne pyare hain ham un ka milad q na manaein ??????
RUKHE MUSTAFA KO DEKHA TO DIYON NE JALNA SEEKHA

Our beloved Prophet PBUH said, I islam every thing is in black and white and certain things are in grey areas. He who will avoid these grey areas, he is successful.
Every act of a muslim should be clearly according to Quran and Sahih Hadith. If any act is controversial, then I think we should waste time on it. We should spend our that time in a act that is clearly beneficial for us in our second life.

All who questions about meelad-e-mustafa (saw) must know this that by doing mehfile meelda we sunnis protect our self from shirke khuda.
Note: people these days say we should do siratun nabi (saw) or siraatun nabi (saw).
by sirat means character and siraat refers to sirratal mustakim as in right path. Now come to or walk on a right path and adapt to a good character. we do not celebrate these. but we can celebrate meelad. coming to the point of shirke khuda. by celebrating meelad we are saying that prophet muhammed (saw) was born and allah (swt) is not born. Allah (swt) is eternal in reference to Sura Ikhlas.

Ham log is din I mean jaloos main Allah ka zikr aur huzoor (saw) ki tashreef awari ki khushi manate hain agar yeh apko pathetic or non-Muslim way lagta hai ,,,,, so I can’t help you ,,,,, no doubt by jaloos the roads are blocked but that is only for five minutes or so ,,,,,,agar VIP movements se roz adaey ghante k liye roads block ho sakti hain to aik din huzoor ka milad manane k liye roads ka block hona itna bara issue q ????????? I really apologize to all people Jin ko jaloos ya milad ki waja se problem hoti hai ,,, but can’t u bare it one day ….? Although we try our level best not to disturb people ,,,,,, ,,,,,,,, and alhumdullilah when ever my family or I went in the jaloos we never ever missed a single namaz ,,,, we follow all the faraiz ,,,,,,,,, so how can u say it’s pathetic or in a non-Muslim way ????

Salam,
@Azmat I can understand wht ur trying to say… Ap ghaliban un logo ki bat kar rahe hain jinho ne had par kardi hai…
1) Khana-e-Kaba Aur Masjid-e-Nabwi ka model banana aur us ka tawaf karna.
2) Naat Khwani me aise ashar kehna jo shirk ki taraf ishara karein
3) Milad un Nabi PBUH ko farz ka darja de kar is k paband hona aur na manane par apne ap ko gunahgar tasleem karna
4) Shia hazrat ki tarz ke Taziye banana aur nikalna
aur bauhat se points hain jo k sara sar ghalat hain aur shirk hai… to bhai ap point out to karo… aise shakhsyat k wajha se ap sab ko lapetdete ho…
Rahi baat Eid Milad un Nabi PBUH ki to bhai sirf eik example donga me apko… Kitni tarha namazein parhte hain hum…. Farz, Sunnat, Nafil…
Farz = Allah ka hukum aur ada na karne par Gunah.
Sunnat = Nabi kareem PBUH ada kia karte the, Kuch zaroori hain aur kuch nahi
Nafil = Zaroroi nahi, lekin ada karenge to ajar o sawab hai aur na karenge to gunah b nai, koi had muqarar nai
isi tarha se do Eid hum par farz hai, yani Allah tallah ne hukum dia hai k isey manao, aur Friday ka din ‘Choti Eid’ kehlata hai agar apki knowledge me na ho to, aur ye sunnat hai, Melad-un-Nabi ka koi hukum nahi lekin hum isey apni khushi se apni mohobat se manate hain… Ajar-o-sawab ki b koi lalach nai manane walo ko… maqsad sirf Allah aur us k Rasool PBUH ko yad karna us ka zikar karna aur un se mohobat ka izhar karna hai….
Eik aur point hazir hai… Ap jante hain k Friday aur Monday ki kia hesiat hai Islam ki roh se…
Friday:
Allah ne dunya ko takhleeq kia
Allah ne Hazrat Adam AS ko banaya
Allah ne Hazrat Adam AS ki maghfirat farmai
aur bauhat se waqyat ronma hue jo Allah tala se related hain.
Monday:
Aap SAW ki pedaish ka din
Pehli wahi nazil hui
Fateh Makkkah ka din
Aap SAW dunya se parda farma gaye
aur bauhat se waqyat ronma hue jo Aap SAW se related hain
Aap SAW Monday ka roza rakha karte the aur jo k sunnat hai, wajha poochne par Aap SAW ne khusoosi tor par apni Padaish ka din bataya…
Should i have to describe more……

Asslamu aly kum dear muslim brothers,
As i seen this day, people come on the road in Mumbai, from Asar to late Isha.
no one on the JOOLSE offer the namaz between asar and Isha,
more to that these people Jam the traffic with trucks bikes cars etc…..
and put huge speakers on the full volume of Qawalies and naat (with some shirk words in it)
after watching all this i think we can celebrate next Eid -e- Milad @ our homes. like other two Eid.

All brothers who do not understand aqeedah behind celebrating milad r need to learn basic knowledge about Islam. U need to learn why we Celebrate two Eids in a year… whats its importance n why we offer prayer for the Both Eid’s…. n first of all u have to Learn what is definition of word ‘Eid’… then u can learn why we call the day of Milad un Nabi PBUH a Eid day for us….
If u will ask abt Sahaba didn’t do this then my brothers Sahaba karam RA ne bauhat se aise kam kiey jo na ap ne kiey aur na aap karsakte ho… Ye mudda ap us waqt uthana jab aap kisi b eik Sahaba ki seerat ko puri tarha apnalo…
ashabay nay jung larhe..aap nay larhi? ashaba nay NABI PAK ko dekha… aap nay dekha? ashaba nay NABI PAK k hukum ke tameel ke… aap nay ke? ASHABA nay apnay ap ko QURBAN keya… aap nay keya?…..

I have read all the comments and I strongly agreed on this that there is nothing in Quran and hadeeth which proves that we need to celebrate his milad. Why we are adding something g new in Islam. When it is not done by prophet himself his sahba or taba tabeen.
Some of brother said its all about love than my brothers it’s mean that you love only one day in whole year to prophet (PBUH ). And if it is eid than how many raqat you guys pray and what time.
Last one imp question to all of you if your. Sliced dear born and die on same date ( means same date on which he or she born) than which thing you wil celebrate his/ her death day or birthday?
And there is nothing like birthday in Islam. Never ever any sahba or prophet PBUH celebrate this day. Than why we do?

The Birth of the Prophet was a milestone in the history of Islam. It matters not whether this occasion was celebrated during the life of the Prophet and shortly after or not. If you like to thank Allah SWT for the Blessing He bestowed on us by causing the Prophet to be born on this day, go ahead and celebrate the occasion. If you do not, do not celebrate it. Why are we making an issue out of it? No wonder we spend our time focusing on trivial issues instead of spending that time in true worshiping.

@azin khan your an idiot allah and his rasool sent down guidlines in which to practice the religion you cant do bid’ah and go beyond it remember the hadith about the man who would fast and never break his fast and another who would pray and never end his prayer and the third that would never marry and rassol SAW told them not to go beyond what he does so if you really love the rasool follow his sunnah plus the day you do mawlid is actaully when SAW died :/and if you notice for over 600 years this act was not practices and its mainly practised by the sufi’s

By celebrating we r not violating basic Islamic Principles then how come this could be a biddah…

I think it’s not haram to celebrate this day, as long as we don’t abandon any fardhu (compulsary) things like salah and make the celebration too huge until people were disturbed (loud noises for example) and things were not wasted because of excessive expenditures. I believe we can do it, but do it the right way. Celebrate it moderately and accordingly. Yes, we should always love our prophet and not just show the love on one day, but making things a little special on his birthday (probably one of the greatest day on earth) wouldn’t hurt now would it?

The question is : do you think that you are better the the prophet or his companions ??? If your answer is NO and that what you should say then … What we got from them should be enough and we shouldn’t add anything else …. Actually there are thousands of Sunna acts that you can do daily, why don’t you just learn that and do it instead of adding things to the religion like shea in Iran and Iraq

If you do not want to celebrate it on a big scale, thats fine. every person is allowed to celebrate it according to the means that are available to them. the problem arises when people try to shut the whole thing down. they push for no celebrations at all. how can you act indifferent to a day that marked the end of the era of jihalat. this month deserves to be known as a blessed month. I dont think we should succumb to the opponents wishes to act indifferent during this month and do nothing. If the opponents argue that lighting and decorations are a bit too much and that You can feed people or do another act of worship to express your thanks to Allah, how many of those opponents actually do it? there are a thousands ways through which you can celebrate. how many of those methods are employed by the opponents of this celebration? not even one that I know of. from what I have observed, the goal is to shut down the whole idea and not just the way it is executed.

Dear All, I celebrate this day with full of respect and love. Here some of brothers has commented that sahaba R.A. had not celebrated this day and no orders from Quran or Hadees. Its Absolutely right and i belive above line.I want to ask only few question Please reply with your heart.
1)When our Prophet makes wuju,sahab R.A.rapidly pick up a drops of water which passes from Prophet’s body and not a single drop reached on floor.
2)Most of sahaba R.A. has a pious hair of Our Prophet and saved until her life time.
Brothers…..Is any Quran orders or Hadees to do so ??????? why Sahab R.A. jumping on water its only LOVE.

Assalamu alaykum.
first of all brother/sister, i have never heard of salaah being missed as a result of a procession
in that procession, durood o salaam are recited
the procession has to be a simple moderate type, not full of extravaganza.
no loud music or infidel type of dancing is carried out in this procession
Saudis celebrate “Milaad ul Watan” every september, when their nation was born. Muslims THROUGHOUT THE WORLD celebrate “Milaad un Nabi Sallallahu alayhi wasallam”, in the month when Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu alayhi wasallam was born
no extravaganza is carried out. if extravaganza is present, it is not the fault of milad un nabi Sallallahu alayhi wasallam
i hope the following link clarifies the position of muslims who celebrate milad un nabi Sallallahu alayhi wasallam

To remember the birth-day of ProphetPUBH is our duty. But to celebtare is a custom of your area, not a religion obligation or to say it is in religion. All NABIS AS are our prophets and there is NO Difference in them.We are Special and our NABI PBUH is special for His educations and value.

Allah ta’la conveyed a message to all Ka’enat through Quran or hadis & our Ulmas that this shiny world, ‘hawa’. ‘Pani, mountains, all beuties of nature & we, an ordinary man, allah ke bande.. would not be thete if Allah would have not made LOVELY PROPHET MUHAMMAD SALLALLAHU ALAYHI WASALLAM.
AISE NABI KI AAMAD PE LAKHO SALAM.
JASHNA-E-VILADAT ZARI RAHEGA TILL THE QAYAMAT.
SARKAR KI AAMAD, MARHABA!
But i admit that by celebrating Eid-e-milaadunNabi, we should make sure that city life do not disturb.
And i m sure that we mind it to manage city life!

Assalamualaikum! To all muslims. If you can create such a big page to opose those who have insulted Qu’ran and also our beloved Prophet (sallallahu-alaihi-wasallam) and you want to Express your Love towards them. So why people feel it is wrong if a Muslim shows his Love towards his Prophet (sallallahu-alaihi wasallam). You have created a page on facebook to oppose those disbeleavers as have asked everyone to join it, we dont think this will remove such page from that site and it is fact. But however this even that is birth of our Prophet(sallallahu alaihi wasallam) it right time to show your real love towards Prophet(sallallahu alaihi wasallam) and warn them we are not Gafil for a single moment about our Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam). We love our beloved Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) and also the Qur’an which came to us by means of Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam). And the even when our beloved Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) reached Madina munawwar which became beautiful after his hijrat and the Grand Welcome by people of Madina with girls singing, “TalaAl badruAlaina”one of the enough for a Muslim to celebrate Milad as it happened on 12th of Rabiul Awwal. We love our Prophet and we will celebrate it as it was also celebrated it past at the of our beloved Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam).
Marhaba Ya Mustafa (sallallahu alaihi wasallam).

My dear brothers & systers As-salamualaykum,
u know 5 times how to pray salat is also not mentioned in holy Quran,..but we r praying because prophet told us..
& the matter of celebrating i can show u accoreding to holy Quran pls see this..
Evidence of the Holy Quran
The Qur’anic verses proves that to celebrate Milad is not only a proper deed but it is also a praiseworthy.
1) Allah Almighty says in Quran:
“The peace is on Him the day when he was born and the day when he will die and the day when he will be raised alive.” (Kanzul Iman the translation of Holy Quran, Sura Al-Maryam, Verse 15)
In the above verse Allah Almighty has mentioned the complete Milad of Hazrat Yahya (Alaihis Salam). And before this Allah Almighty has mentioned the events which took place before the birth. It is the same way of celebrating birth day as Ahle Sunnat adopts for the Milad of the last Prophet (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him) of Allah Almighty. In other words the Prophet of Allah Almighty Hazrat Isa (Alaihis Salam) celebrates his own Milad.
2) As Allah Almighty says:
“And the same peace on me the day I was born and the day I will die and the day I would be raised alive.”
(Kanzul Iman the translation of Holy Quran, Sura Al Maryam, Verse 33)
Before this verse Allah Almighty has stated the whole story of Maryam (Allah may pleased with him) that who she got pregnant and gave birth her great son, the Prophet of Allah Isa (Alaihi Salam). Allah Almighty also mentioned the words of Isa (Alaihis Salam) by which Isa (Alaihis Salam) praised himself. This style of narrating story is nothing but celebration of Milad of Isa Alaihis Salam. Ahle Sunnat also narrate the story of Holy Prophet Muhammad (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him) in the same style. We too narrate the events which took place before the birth and after it as Allah Almighty narrated about Yahya and Isa (Alaihimus Salam). Therefore, a person who has eyes of justice will obviously accept that to celebrate Milad is an important deed which Allah Almighty has done. So it proves that the basis of Milad is found in the Holy Quran.
3) Allah Almighty says:
“And remind them of the days of the Allah.”
(Kanzul Iman the translation of Holy Quran, Sura Ibrahim, Verse5)
In this verse Allah Almighty orders his prophet Musa Alaihis Salam to remind his nation the days of Allah Almighty. “The days of Allah” are those days in which great events took place or Allah Almighty bestowed his great rewards to his creature. As the Holy Quran testifies this explanation of the days of Allah Almighty. In the Holy Quran Musa Alaihis Salam says:
“And when Musa said it his people remember Allah’s favor upon you, when he delivered you from Firawn’s people who used to afflict you worstly, and slaughter your sons and let your daughters live and in it there was shown great mercy of your lord.” (Kanzul Iman the translation of Holy Quran, Sura Ibrahim, Verse 6)
According to the Qur’anic verse emancipation of the nation of Musa Alaihis Salam from Firawn is a day of Allah, so the birth day of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him) is, with any doubt, also a day of Allah, because the Prophet Muhammad (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him) emancipated whole world from the darkness of ignorance and brought them to the light of guidance. Therefore, the birthday (Milad) of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him) deserves to be celebrated then the celebration of any other event. In case we would not be grateful to Allah Almighty for his favor, which is Muhammad (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him). He will punish us severely. As Allah Almighty says:
“And remember when your lord proclaimed, if you will be great full then I shall give you more and if you’re thankless then my treatment is severe.”
(Kanzul Iman the translation of Holy Quran, Sura Ibrahim, and Verse 7)
4) Allah Almighty says:
“Then remember the bounties of Allah and wander not in the earth spreading mischief.”
(Kanzul Iman the translation of Holy Quran, Sura Araf, Verse 74)
In the above verse Allah Almighty orders us to remember his bounties and rewards. The last Prophet of Allah Almighty Muhammad (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him) is, undoubtedly, great blessing of Allah Almighty for whole mankind. Allah Almighty himself considers the Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) his great favor for mankind as He says:
“Undoubtedly, Allah did a great favor to the Muslims that in them from among themselves sent a messenger who recites unto them His signs and purifies them and teaches them the book and wisdom and necessarily before that they were certainly apparent error.
(Kanzul Iman the translation of Holy Quran, Sura Ale Imran, Verse 164)
Therefore, according to the Qur’anic commandments we must remember the beloved Prophet of Allah Muhammad (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him) and Milad-un-Nabi is a best way of remembrance of the greatest Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him).
In another words Allah Almighty says:
“And publicize well the favor of your lord”
(Kanzul Iman the translation of Holy Quran, Sura Al Duha, Verse 11)
The companion of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) Hazrat Abdullah Ibne Abbas (Allah is well pleased with Him) explained the word favors. He says here, In this verse favor signifies the prophet hood and Islam.
(Tafseer Ibne Abbas, Sure Al Duha, Page 651).
So in the light of the given explanation by the cousin of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him), we can say that Allah Almighty orders us to remember Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) in our gatherings between the people, in our mosque between the worshiper and in our houses between our families and Milad un Nabi (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him), as I have written is a best way for this Qur’anic purpose.
4) Allah Almighty orders us:
“Say you oly Allah’s grace and his mercy, on it therefore let them rejoice. That is better then all their wealth.”
In this verse Allah Almighty orders us to enjoy on his grace and mercy. If we see around us we find that each favor of Allah Almighty is great mercy for us. Even our existence is also a mercy of Allah Almighty. But the greatest of Allah is the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). As Allah Almighty says:
“And we sent not you but mercy for all worlds.”
(Kanzul Iman the translation of Holy Quran, Sura Al Ambiyaa, Verse 107)
So according the Qur’anic teachings it is necessary for us that ewe must be happy and pleased on the birthday of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). The one who pleases with the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) is really a true follower of the Quran. And it is obvious that, in whole world Muslims celebrates Milad un Nabi (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). Specially for enjoying the mercy of Allah Almighty that is the beloved prophet of Allah Almighty (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him)Therefore the Holy Quran itself confirms the Milad un Nabi (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him)
5) The gathering of Milad un Nabi (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) incite Muslims on saying Durood and Salam ( to pray for prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) of blessing and peace) Allah Almighty says:
“Oh you who I believe send upon Him blessing and salute Him fully well in abundance. (Kanzul Iman the translation of Holy Quran, Sura Al Ahzab, Verse 56)
According to the law of Shariah, a thing which is desired by Shariah, is exactly a like an aim of Shariah. And the benefits of Durood -o- salam are so much in numbers that can not be counted. Durood -o- salam causes for the help of Allah Almighty in this world and here after. So Milad un Nabi (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him) is a source of fulfilling the commandments of Allah Almighty
6) Allah Almighty says:
“And all that we narrate to you of the tidings of the messengers is for the purpose of strengthening your heart therewith.” (Kanzul Iman the translation of Holy Quran, Sura Hood, Verse 121)
This Qur’anic verse reveals that the wisdom of mentioning the stories and events of Prophets (Alaihis salam) was to stand fast the heart of the last prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). And it is obvious that we are, also today, in need of being stand fast. We must know that how; the prophet of Allah (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) faced the problems of his time so that we may face the problems of our times according to the Sunnah. Therefore Milad un Nabi (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) provides us an opportunity to know about the affair of the Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him).
Evidence of Hadith (Narrations of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him)
There are many narrations, which proves the Milad Sharif but I write a few.
1) The Prophet of Allah (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) himself stated his own birth from very beginning He says: “I had been transferred, continuously, from purified offspring to purified wombs. I had been given birth by a lawful marriage not by adultery. When Allah Almighty sent Adam Alaihis Salam on earth so He put me in his spine and then transferred in Nuh Alaihis salam in his boat, and then in Ibrahim Alaihis salam Allah Almighty transferred me continuously from noble offspring to the purified wombs up to that He brought me in my parents who never committed adultery.”
(Tafseer Ruhul Bayan, Vol. 3, Page 54)
As I have written in the beginning that Milad means the time of birth or place of birth. So the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) himself celebrated his own Milad. In the same way Ahle Sunnat following the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him)narrate the events of the birth of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) .This hadith is the clear proof Milad un Nabi (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) and as well as tell us that to celebrate Milad un Nabi (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) is not innovation (bidat) but it is a sunnah (tradition) of Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him).
There are many other narrations which narrate that the Prophet of Allah (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) celebrate his own Milad several times, some of those narrations have been written in Mishkat Sharif.
2) “The one who rejoices on the birth day of the Holy Prophet would not be severely punished and it is hopped that a Muslim who celebrate the Milad un Nabi (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him), will not be punished in hell. Imam Bukhari Rahmatullah Alaih narrates that Abu Lahab would be punished lightly in the hell on Monday. Because he rejoiced and freed his handmaid indicating by his finger, when the Prophet of Allah Almighty (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) took birth. So as a reward of happiness on Milad un Nabi (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) he would be given water by his finger. (Saheehul Bukhari Vol. 2, Page 764)
Imam Shams ud din Naseer Al Damaishqi narrates this hadith in poetry. Here is its translation.
If such kafir was denounced (in the Quran)
And perished are his hands, and in the flame is his eternal abode.
It is narrated every Monday.
His torment is made easy for his joy at the birth of Ahmad. (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him)
What is the expectation then of a servant who spent all his life.
Happy with the arrival of Ahmad (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) and died on the one ness of Allah Almighty. (Haul-ul-Ahtifal Bil Mawlid Al-Nabvi Al Sharif, Page 11)
2) The Holy Prophet Muhammad (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) celebrated his own Milad by having fast. Imam Wali ud din write this narration with reference to the Saheeh Muslim. When the Prophet of Allah (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) was asked about the fast of Monday. He (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) said:
“I took birth and the Quran was revealed upon me in this day.”
(Mishkat Sharif, Page 179)
This narration proves that to celebrate Milad un Nabi is a tradition of the Holy Prophet (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him) on every Monday. Secondly it is lawful to fix a particular day for Milad un Nabi (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him). Thirdly it is an act of sunnah to worship in the pleasure of the Milad un Nabi (Allah’s Grace and Peace be upon him)
Evidence of general consensus of Muslim ummah and scholars (Ulema)
1) Imam Al-Hafiz Al-Suyuti in his famous book “Al-Hawii Lil-Fatawii” allocated a special chapter on that topic and named it “The Excellence of Objective in Celebrating the Mawlid” where he said: The question under consideration is what the verdict of the Shari’ah on celebrating the Holy Birthday of the Noble Prophet (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him) during the month of Rabbi-ul-Awwal. From the point of view of Shari’ah is this a praiseworthy action or a blameworthy one? And do those who arrange such celebration Receive blessings or not? He said:
“The reply to this question is that in my view the Milad Shareef (Celebration of the Birthday of the Noble Prophet Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him) is in fact such an occasion of happiness on which people assemble and recite the Holy Qu’ran to the extent that is easy. Then they relate the prophecies concerning the appearance of the Noble Prophet (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him) that have been transmitted in Ahadith and Author, and the miraculous events and signs that took place on his birth. Then food is set before them and according to their desire they partake thereof to satisfaction. This festival of celebrating the birthday of the Noble Prophet (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him) is a Bid’ah Hasanah (good Innovation) and those arranging it will get blessing, since in such a celebration is found the expression of joy and happiness at the greatness and eminence of the Noble Prophet (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him) and his birth”.
Even Ibn Tay’miah said in his book “Necessity of the Right Path”, p. 266, 5th line from the bottom of that page, published by Dar Al-Hadith, the following:
“As far as what people do during the Milad, either as a rival celebration to that which the Christian do during the time of Christ’s birthday or as an expression of their love and admiration and a sign of praise for the Noble Prophet (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him), Allah Almighty will surely reward them for such Ijtihad”. He then said: “Although Milad was not practiced by (Salaf), they should have done so since there was no objection against it from the Shari’ah point of view”.
And we certainly only celebrate Milad out of love and admiration to the Prophet of all Mankind.
2. Imam Al-Hafiz Al-Qastalani, who gave commentary on Sahih Bukhari, said: “May Allah Almighty shower his Mercy upon a person who takes the days of the month of Rabbi-ul-Awwal, in which the Noble Prophet (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him) was born, as days of feast and celebration for doing so is the best cure for the heart of an ailing person.”
3. Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar was asked, same reference of Imam Suyuti, about Milad Shareef. His reply was:
“Milad Shareef is, in fact, and innovation, which was not transmitted from any pious predecessor in the first three centuries. Nevertheless, both acts of virtue as well as acts of abomination are found in it (i.e. Sometimes acts of virtue are found therein and sometimes acts of abomination). If in the Milad Shareef only acts of virtue are done and acts of abomination are abstained from, then the Milad Shareef is a Bid’ah Hasanah (good innovation), otherwise not.”
He then added ”
“To do any virtuous act and to observe it annually as means of recollection for any special day on which Allah Almighty has bestowed any favor or removed any calamity is a form of showing gratitude to Allah Almighty. Gratitude to Allah Almighty is expressed through different kinds of Ibaadah (worship) -prostration and standing in prayer, charity and recitation of the Holy Qu’ran. And what is a greater favor from Allah Almighty can there be than the appearance of the Prophet of Mercy (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him) on this day (i.e. 12th of Rabbi-ul-Awwal)?” Some people do not limit it and celebrate the Milad Shareef on any day of Rabbi-ul-Awwal. Nay, some people have extended it even more and increased the period to the whole year. According to the latter, the Milad Shareef can be celebrated on any day of the year. The objective here is the same, i.e. to rejoice at and celebrate the Holy Birth of the Noble Prophet (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him).
4. Imam Abu-Bakr Abdullah Al-Dimashqi compiled a number of books on the subject and called them “Collection of Traditions on the Birth of the Chosen Prophet”, “The Pure Expression on the Birthday of the Best of Creations” and “The Spring for the Thirsty One on the Birth of the Rightly Guided”.
5. Imam Al-Hafiz Al-Iraqi wrote a book and called it “The Pure Spring on the Sublime Birth”.
6. Imam Ibn Dahyah wrote a book and called it “Enlightenment on the Birthday of the Bearer of Good News, The Warner”.
7. Imam Mulla Ali Qari wrote a book and called it “The Quenching Spring on the Birthday of the Prophet”. (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him)
8. Imam Shams ul-Din bin Naseer Al-Dimashqi, said in his book: “The Spring for the Thirsty One on the Birth of the Rightly Guided” about the story of Abu Lahab that he will receive a light punishment every Monday for expressing joy at the birth of the Noble Prophet (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon him) on that day. The Imam said the following verse of poetry, the translation is: If such Kafir was denounced in the (Qur’an) and perished are his hands, and in the Flames is his eternal abode It is narrated that every Monday.
His torment is made easy for his Joy at the Birth of Ahmad What is the expectation then of a servant who spent all his life Happy with the Arrival of Ahmad (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him) and died on the Oneness of Allah.
9. Imam Shams Ul-Din Ibn aL-Jazri, the Imam of reciters, wrote a book and named it “The Scent of Notification on the Blessed Birthday”.
10. Imam Al-Hafiz Ibn Al-Jawzi said in the description of Milad: “Peace and Tranquility takes over during that year and a good glad tiding to obtain your wish and inspiration”.
11. Imam Abu-Shamah, The Sheikh of Al Hafiz Al Nawawi, said:
“The best of the innovations of our times is what is carried out on the day of corresponding to the birthday of our Beloved Prophet (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon Him), where people give out donations, practice what is right, express their joy and happiness, in doing so is surely a sign of love and admiration for the Prophet (Allah’s Grace & Peace be upon him)”.

Unlawful.
There just two Eids that are to be ‘actually’ celebrated. And celebrating something or someday that is not mentioned in the Qur’an to be done so is undoubtedly unlawful. Its just the narrow-minded people of these centuries that have taken up and added such nuisance into Islam. I dare say, if you have no idea whether it is wrong or right then it is better to left undone and unperformed. Now, isn’t that what one of the Hadiths state; that if one is in doubt of the action or deed being acceptable (Islamically as per the teachings of Qur’an and Sunnah) or not then better not do it.
Ergo, it’s like a mockery being played upon the real Islam teaching and am sure nobody in their right mind would want to mock our own religion.

I think ther is no need to give logics or arguments.
The thing u have cleared in your article .
that this is good to praise and send wishes to prophet pease be upon Him. But dont make it like a festival ( maila ) that is totally against the teaching Of prophet peace Be upon Him…
Seeratunabi conferences must b held ther and people should praise and talk about HIS PBUH life .

We should not be doing that has not been ordered by Allah and Hazrat Muhammad Sallallho alihe wasallam.
Bidat is just one step away from shirk,so we should be very careful about committing any such act.
PLEASE PONDER OVER THIS SERIOUSLY.

I do not personally appreciate the celebration of birthday of P.Mohummed(pbuh). During 1997 I study about Islam from Suadi, there never I could see anything according to that.Later I could go through much more Islamic Books which also do not support these kind of celebrations…..
But we love Muhammed(pbuh) and respect too……..
The balance only knows Allah, the ALMIGHTY……..aslamalikum rahamathulla va bharhathahu…….

Our prophet (Peace be upon him) said there shall be 71 groups (firqe) in my Ummah and only 1 of them will go to heaven that which exactly follows me. So when we see these people celeberating Eid Milad / Urs etc there is nothing surprise about it since they are one of those 70 groups for which Our prophet (Peace be upon him) forecast-ed. May Allah show them the right path. … Aameeen.

Dear all,
We are the followers of our Prophet PBUH and we do what/how our Prophet PBUH does in their life. no doubt we all love to Prophet PBUH but Prophet PBUH not celebrate this day in his life. so we do not have any right to celebrate Prophet PBUH birthday. There for celebrating the birthday of any person in ISLAM strictly prohibited. this is biddat and alha never excuse those ho does not follow the Prophet PBUH way. only the Prophet PBUH show the way is true and all the other is wrong and ways of Jahannam.

Loving the prophet does not certainly mean blocking the traffic,wasting electricity,causing noise pollution sometimes unbearable for students,infants and elderly,and most important missing namaz.love means respect and spreading the message of Hazrat Mohammed peace be upon him, following his teachings and act according to the teachings of the Holy Quran and sunnah.

Feb 04. 2012
kesser alhamdolilah , the thing about this deen is some people have no knowledge of what they do and also in quran allah says people will be asked why they were in hellfire and they said” they did what their fathers used to do” meaning people just come in and follow and no one tries to learn the deen and sure indeed any innovation leads to hell fire. and even yet there are some things people do culturally , which is fine so long as it is not going against islamic teaching.if everyone just do what they find their people doing will any people ever revert to islam? because we are all born muslim and some raised into other religions, and some of people in to other cultures like celebrating christmas, which the christians say they are showing how they love Jesus and the prphet saws said be different from the non believers.i ask allah to guide us to the right path ameen.

So everybody agrees that we are not told explicitly in the quran or the sunnah to celebrate milad? OK, well the quran does say that “we (ie muslims)make no distinction between them” (ie prophets)! so somebody explain to me why don’t we celebrate the birthdays of the 124000 other prophets sent by ALLAH? ok let me make your task a bit easier, there are 25 other prophets mentioned in the quran by name, why don’t we celebrate their birthdays atleast? still too hard for you??? lets make it a bit more easier, especially for those living in the western world ! most western countries are classed as christian countries, so why don’t we celebrate christmas? with the christians? after all christmas is the milad of hazrat Isa (pbuh), and we muslims are much closer to hazrat Isa than the christians are we not? even the milad celebrating scholars are of the opinion that we cannot say merry christmas or happy christmas to the christians,it is haram, so why is it halal for the muslims to wish each other happy milad, or milad mubarak? isn’t this the same as saying happy christmas? or christmas mubarak? why the injustice to other prophets? what about the waste of wealth in decorating the mosques and houses? wouldn’t that wealth be much better utilised in feeding the poor muslims in third world nations? what do you think the prophet MUHAMMAD (pbuh) would have liked you to do with this wasted wealth? if he were alive on this earth? wealth is also wasted in buying new clothes just for this occasion and then generaly are discarded after the occasion is over, isn’t this waste? what about the extravagant dishes that are prepared? half of which end up in the bin! where is the common sense? and look into the history of milad, it started because of copying the chritians, ie the egyptians saw the christians celebrating christmas and they came up with the idea of milad! and the prophet MUHAMMAD (pbuh) said ” he who copies another nation is of them, and not of us”! PLEASE MY DEAR BROTHERS AND SISTERS WAKE UP AND USE YOUR LOGIC AND DO NOT FOLLOW OTHER NATIONS! WE HAVE A GREAT NATION OF OUR OWN LETS STICK TOGETHER AND LET NOTHING DIVIDE US. and think for a moment all the decorations and lights that you buy for this occasion are made by the jews and christians, and look how much profit you are giving them, would it not be better to give that money as sadaqah to the poor followers of MUHAMMAD (pbuh). asalam alay kum ALLAH HAFIZ.

For some time, the Islamophobes have been trying to create a negative image of Islam. They badmouth about our Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) and the holy Qur’an. They have been trying their best to misguide people. They fabricate lies and attack on our beloved Muhammad (peace be upon him). Therefore, it is critical for Muslims to unite and give a united response to the hate-mongers. However, unfortunately, the reality is that the current Muslims are deeply divided even on those practices and beliefs that no one in the entire Muslim world has ever disputed for more than 13 centuries. Instead of focusing on the real issues of the Muslim Ummah we are wasting time and resources in countering each other on the issues which had never been issues. Every year in the month of Rabi Al Awwal, one of the most useless and misguiding campaign is carried out against the celebration of Eid Milad un Nabi (Peace be upon him) also called Mawlid– the birthday of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). As Rabi-Al-Awwal approaches, the annual campaign of Fatawa and speeches against celebrating the Birth of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) starts. What a waste!
Bid’a (innovation)
The people who oppose celebrating the birthday of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) argue that it should not be celebrated because the Prophet himself and his companions after him did not celebrate his birthday. According to these opponents, celebrating the Prophet’s birthday is an innovation in Islam, and the Prophet (peace upon him) has forbidden creating innovations in Islam. An innovation in Islam is called Bid’a. In their opinion, the Prophet’s birthday was not celebrated by the Prophet and neither by his companions; therefore, it is an innovation (Bid’a) and must be avoided. For them it’s a sin.
Nature of Fatawa Against Eid Milad un Nabi (Peace upon him) or Mawlid
There is not a single verse in the Qur’an OR a Hadith of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) forbidding the celebration of Prophet’s birthday. However, those who oppose the birthday celebration of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) quote many verses from the holy Qur’an and Hadith giving an impression to the less knowledgeable Muslims that it is forbidden. They twist the meanings and insert their own biased opinions in Qur’an and Hadith. A few weeks ago, a brother gave me a fatwa handout against celebrating the birthday of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him). He said, “there are several references from Qur’an and Hadith in the handout against Eid-Milad-un-Nabi”.
When you read those fatawa and handouts, you will never find a single verse from Qur’an or a single Hadith in which Allah OR His Messenger (peace be upon him) forbade to celebrate the birth of the Prophet (peace be upon him). It is always a twisted interpretation of those verses from Qur’an and Hadith which are not even related to the topic. This is the deception, which ordinary Muslims do not understand. They just see the NUMBER of references made from Qur’an and Hadith not knowing that these references have nothing to do with Eid-Milad-un-Nabi (Birthday of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him). The opponents of Eid-Milad-un-Nabi purposely misquote and misinterpret Qur’anic verses and the Hadith of Prophet (Peace be upon him) in order to misguide Muslims just like Qadyanis who twist the meanings and the interpretation of the verses of the holy Qur’an and the Hadith of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) to justify the legitimacy of their false Prophet.
What is Eid-Milad-un-Nabi / Mawlid?
Eid-Milad-un-Nabi means birthday of Prophet (peace be upon him). The Muslim celebration of the birthday of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is quite different from the Christian Celebration of Christmas, the birthday of Jesus Christ (peace be upon him). What do Muslims do on the day of Eid Milad un Nabi (peace be upon him)? They organize gatherings in which Muslims discuss the birth, the life and the message of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him). They feed the poor and the guests. They read the Qur’an and learn Qur’an from scholars. They praise Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and sing Naat / Nasheed (poems / rhymes). They reach out to non-Muslims and inform them about Islam. The day is celebrated with purely religious and spiritual aspects of an Islamic life. At this occasion Muslims remind themselves to love and follow Allah’s last Messenger (Peace be upon him) in daily life. Eid Milad un Nabi (peace be upon him) is just like any other religious get-together of Muslims for the remembrance of Allah and His beloved Messenger (Peace be upon him).
If a gathering that discusses the birth, the life (SEERAH) and the message of Prophet of Islam is a Bid’a (distortion in Islam) because the Prophet himself and his companions (Peace be upon them) did not organize or ask people to organize such gatherings then we should not be doing any thing in the name of Islam that was not done by the Prophet (peace be him) OR his companions (May Allah be pleased with them). Why Muslims organize and practice the following? The following practices and celebrations were never organized by Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him), neither by his noble companions and nor by any scholar in the history of Islam except until recently. However, Eid-Milad-un-Nabi (Sallallaho Alaihe Wasallam) has been in practice for the last thirteen centuries and has never been disputed by any scholar of Islam until the Zionists and the Crusaders occupied Muslim countries and made them colonies in 1800s/1900s. Eid Milad un Nabi has been made controversial during the last century. It had never been a controversial issue. Those who call Eid Milad un Nabi (Sallallaho Alaihe Wasallam) Bid’a let me share with you their BID’As. Why their actions and practices are not called Bid’a?
The Bid’a (distortion) Committed by the opponents of Eid Milad un Nabi (peace be upon him)
Bid’a Number 1: The only worldwide gathering of Muslims commanded by Allah and practiced by Prophet Muhammad and his companions (Peace be upon them) is Hajj. There is NO other international (worldwide) gathering of Muslims in Islam.
Where do you find a verse in Qur’an or a Hadith to organize worldwide gatherings of Muslims in the name of TABLEEGH? In Pakistan and Bangladesh the annual TBALIGHEE IJTIMA’ attracts more Muslims than Hajj. Isn’t this a Bid’a? When did the Prophet (Peace be upon him) OR his companions OR Muslim scholars organize the worldwide gatherings of Muslims in the name of Tableegh? Worldwide Tableeghi Ijtima was started few decades ago by the founder of the Tableeghi Jama’t in India, Maulana Ilyas Gujrati. But Eid Milad un Nabi has 13 hundred years of history. Just like Eid Milad un Nabi (peace be upon him), the Tableeghi Ijtima’ has a fixed annual date. People participate, pray and learn Islam in both gatherings. Why Tableeghi Ijtima is not a Bid’a but Eid Milad un Nabi is Bid’a?
Bid’a Number 2: In Pakistan (1970s) former Prime Minister Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto invited the Imam of Ka’ba to visit Pakistan. When Imam Ka’ba, a fierce opponent of Eid-Milad-un-Nabi, came Pakistan Muslims abandoned mosques and prayed Friday prayers in large stadiums behind him. Was there any precedence in Islam for such gatherings? Prophet (peace upon him) and his companions (Peace be upon them) never did such a thing. Never happened before in the history of Muslims that Muslims emptied mosques and prayed behind an Imam because he came from Saudi Arabia? That was definitely a new thing. It was a big Bid’a? Why no Fatwa was issued against the Imam of Ka’ba and all those who prayed behind him.
Bid’a Number 3: The scholars, Ulema and students of Dar-ul-Aloom Deoband (one of the oldest Islamic universities in India) celebrated the 100th anniversaries of the Dar Al Aloom Deoband. The 100th birthday of Dar-ul Aloom Deoband was celebrated under the leadership of a Hindu Prime Minister of India, Indira Gandhi. Did Prophet or his companions ever celebrate the anniversary of Masjid Al Quba, Masjid Al Nabawi, etc.? Talk about inviting a “Mushrikah” (pagan) to preside over the gathering of Ulema-e-Islam. Wasn’t that a Bid’a? It is obvious that the haters of Eid Milad un Nabi have more love and respect for their Dar Al Aloom and pagans than the birthday of Prophet of Islam (Peace be upon him).
Bid’a Number 4: Few years ago in UK, the Ahl-e-Hadith party held TOWHEED-O-SUNNAT conference and invited Imam Ka’ba and many other scholars. They do this every year. Did Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) or his noble companions (Peace be upon them) ever organized a program called TOWHEED-O-SUNNAT Conference and traveled to speak at a conference? Why Towheed-o-Sunnat conference can not be declared Bid’a? The Salafis (self appointed Ahle Hadith) commit more Bid’a and deny more Hadith than any other sect within Islam.
Bid’a Number 5: Whenever Muslims get upset on an issue or conflict, they take out processions and rallies to protest.
Muslim leaders and scholars of Islam address those rallies. Among the organizers and the leaders of those rallies are those who consider Eid-Milad-un-Nabi Bid’a. I ask them a very simple question. Did Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), his companions OR the noble scholars of Islam ever took out rallies and banners protesting against an aggression or a conflict or an issue? Were there any rallies organized by Muslims when Al Quds was captured by Crusaders? Where is the basis of these rallies in Qur’an, Hadith and in the history of Islam? Aren’t these rallies Bid’a? The haters of Eid Milad un Nabi invite Muslims to attend their rallies. They say,” taking part in these rallies is Jihad and participants will be rewarded by Allah”. But if a rally to create awareness about our beloved Prophet (peace be upon him) is organized, it becomes Bid’a. What a shame!
Bid’a Number 6: During 1970 elections in Pakistan Jamat Islami took out major
processions in the name of Youm-e-Shawkat-e-Islam. This name itself undermines the religion of Islam. Everyday is Youm-e-Shawkat-e-Islam not when Jamat Islami contests elections. When did the Prophet and his companions organize Youm-e-Shawkat-e-Islam? Wasn’t that Bid’a? Did anybody issue Fatwa against those large processions? They were all done in the name of Islam. People were expected to get rewards from Allah for their contribution and participation. But participation in the procession of Eid Milad un Nabi (Peace be upon him) is called Bid’a? No wonder the followers of Abdullah Ibn Obai do exist in our times too.
Bid’a Number 7: Saudi Arabia does celebrate Youm-ul-Watani (National Day of Saudi Arabia). Television stations telecast special programs and newspapers print special editions and private companies give their employees a day off. I have never seen any Saudi scholar’s fatwa against the celebration of Saudi National Day. But they are very quick in giving Fatwa against Eid-e-Milad-un-Nabi. Did Prophet (Peace be upon him) OR his companions (May Allah be pleased with them) ever celebrated the establishment of the Islamic state of Madinah? Saudi scholars, who oppose the celebration of Prophet’s birthday, gave Fatwa for justifying US troops in Saudi Arabia but they can not issue a Fatwa against the Bid’a that is committed by their own government and by them. That is a real distortion of Islam.
Bid’a Number 8: In North America, ISNA, ICNA, CAIR and many other Muslim organizations organize their annual conventions. In most cases people have to purchase tickets to listen to the speeches of various scholars. Isn’t this entire setup a Bid’a? When did Prophet (Peace be upon him) OR his companions (Peace be upon them) OR scholars of Islam after them organize such conventions? Why people have to pay in order to listen to the speeches of the scholars of Islam?
Where is the basis for this? Did Prophet (Peace be upon him) charge fee for his speeches? Any companion of the Prophet ever asked people to pay for a good cause first before he would deliver his speech? Off course not. Those noble people never did such things but it’s OK for the opponents of Eid Milad un Nabi. Indeed, it’s a major Bid’a but they won’t call it Bid’a; otherwise, they have to close their shops.
Bid’a Number 9: The very concept of forming organizations such as Jama’t Ahl-e-Hadith, Party of Salafis, Jama’t Islami, WAMY, Rabita Aalm-e-Islami, ISNA, ICNA, CAIR is a Bid’a. Neither Prophet nor his companions (Peace be upon them) ever formed organizations and named them. The only name for worldwide Muslim body is “Muslims”. Only Allah divides people into tribes and nations for identification. These opponents of Eid Milad un Nabi (Sallallaho Alaihe Wasallam) have divided the Ummah. What a worse Bid’a they have
committed?
Bid’a Number 10: A Pakistani woman who has now moved to Canada but still operates in Pakistan considers herself a scholar of Islam. She gives fatawa not only against Eid-Milad-un-Nabi but against many other Islamic traditions such as Qur’an reading in congregation (Qur’an Khawani), etc.. She organizes prayer get-togethers for woman only. She organizes Salat-at-Tasbeeh get-together for women only. She organizes Taraweeh prayers for women only. She has invented many things in Islam for the sake of women but for her Eid-Milad-un-Nabi is Bid’a? Where she finds basis for her style of preaching Islam? She organizes gatherings of women against the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him), which is a worse form of Bid’a. She has destroyed many families in the name of Islam. She has converted many Muslim women into fanatics. Her entire organization is a Bid’a.
§ Bid’a Number 11: Today, in North America Muslim associations organize fundraising dinners for mosques, Islamic schools or for humanitarian purposes. They sell tickets and invite speakers. When Prophet or his companions (Peace be upon them) raised funds through fundraising dinners? When Prophet or his companions (Peace be upon them) sold $5, $25, $100, etc. food plates for a good cause. Isn’t this all Bid’a? They organize these fundraising dinners which benefits them but the celebration of Eid Milad un Nabi (peace be upon him) hurts them. Wow!
An Urdu poet wrote;
HAM AAH BHEE KARTAY HAIN TO HOJATAY HAIN BADNAAM
WHO QATL BHEE KARDAYN TO CHARCHA NAHEE HOTA
Translation: If I just say “ouch” when pained I get defamed
And they commit murders but no one objects to them
If celebrating the birthday of Prophet (peace upon him) is an innovation (Bid’a) because neither Prophet (peace upon him), nor his companions ever celebrated Prophet’s birthday, then why the following Bid’a(innovations) were created centuries ago and why everybody practices them today? Why the opponents of Eid Milad un Nabi (peace upon him) do not condemn them and stop practicing them immediately.
Bid’a Number 12: When Qur’an was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) , it did not have thirty volumes. Neither Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) nor his noble companions divided Qur’an into thirty volumes (siparah). Qur’an was divided into thirty volumes by the rulers and the scholars hundreds of years later for the convenience of HUFFAAZ (memorizers of the holy Qur’an). It helped HUFFAAZ in managing the recitation of the holy Qur’an in Taraweeh prayers in Ramadan.
§ Bid’a Number 13: Neither Prophet (peace be upon him) nor his noble companions ever put Rukoo and their numbers in the holy Qur’an. These Rukoo were added in Qur’an by the rulers and the scholars hundreds of years later to help Imams and HUFFAAZ in memorizing the verses of the Qur’an and provide better organization and management for reading Qur’an in regular daily prayers and Taraweeh prayers of Ramadan.
Bid’a Number 14: During the time of Prophet (peace be upon him) there were no A’RAAB (Madda/Kasrah/Dhamma / Zabar Zer Pesh) in the holy Qur’an. These were added in Qur’an by the command of a very ruthless and cruel Muslim ruler, Hajjaj Bin Yousuf. The A’RAAB were inserted in the Qur’an in order to help non-Arabs to read Qur’an correctly. Today, Arabs and non-Arabs both depend on these A’RAAB in order to read Qur’an correctly. These A’RAAB were an innovation. But if this innovation is removed from the Qur’an, the opponents of Eid Milad un Nabi (peace be upon him) would not be able to read Qur’an correctly. They need this innovation but not Eid Milad un Nabi (peace be upon him).
§ Bid’a Number 15: In Islam, for a Muslim, moving to a non-Muslim country from a Muslim country is allowed in three situations only. 1) When a Muslim is persecuted in his/her own Muslim country and facing dangers to his/her life. 2) When a Muslim wants to preach Islam in a non-Muslim country. In other words, you have to be a Muslim Missionary in order to settle in a non-Muslim country. 3) When a Muslim wants to get education which is not available in a Muslim country. Islam does not allow Muslims to leave Muslim countries and settle in non-Muslim countries except under the above mentioned three conditions. Neither Prophet (peace be upon him), nor any companion of Prophet (peace be upon him) migrated to non-Muslim countries for “better economic opportunities”. They migrated to non-Muslim countries under the above mentioned three situations ONLY. However, one of the most widespread and desirable Bid’a committed by the opponents of Eid Milad un Nabi (peace be upon him) is to find better life in the non-Muslim countries. In fact, the immigration to non-Muslim countries by the Muslims is so desirable and desperate Bid’a that Muslims pray to Allah to help them in committing this Bid’a. Allah knows very well the hypocrites.
The Biggest Deception
One of the biggest misconceptions of our time is that the Muslims look at the Imams and the clergy of Makkah and Madinah as the true and correct scholars of Islam. They believe whatever the Imams of Masjid Al Haraam and Masjid Al Nabawi Sharif say, “can not be wrong”. They are the Imams of the Holiest Mosques in the entire world. Since these Imams do call Eid Milad un Nabi (Peace be upon him) a Bid’a; therefore, it must be a Bid’a. The Mufti of Saudi Arabia must be the most knowledgeable scholar. His Fatwa should be the most authentic.
If this is the standard then let me draw your attention towards history.
Ottomans (Sultanat-e-Usmania) ruled Makkah and Madinah and the most of the Muslim world for seven centuries. For seven centuries the Imams of Masjid Al Haraam and Masjid Al Nabawi Sharif used to organize, celebrate and lead the celebrations of Eid Milad un Nabi (peace be upon him). Eid Milad un Nabi has always been celebrated throughout the Arabian peninsula before becoming Saudi Arabia including Masjid Al Haraam and Masjid Al Nabawi Sharif. In fact, the largest gathering of Eid Milad un Nabi (Sallallaho Alaihe Wasallam) used to be held in Masjid Al Haraam in Makkah. This practice was stopped after the WAHABI revolution in Saudi Arabia. If you would have been born during the Ottoman Empire, you would have seen the biggest celebration of Milad Sharif in Haram Al Makki and Madani.
We MUST not change our traditions if the governments change. Our traditions are based upon the holy Qur’an, the noble Sunnah of our Prophet (Peace be upon him) and the “Ijma” (consensus) of scholars of Islam. If the government in Saudi Arabia changes today then what happens to the opponents of Eid Milad un Nabi? Will they start celebrating?
Eid Milad un Nabi unites Muslims and the denial of Eid Milad un Nabi divides Muslims. The proof is in the 1300 years of Muslim history. When Muslims were together in celebrating the noble birthday of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him), they were all united but when they started debating the permissibility of Eid Milad un Nabi, they got divided. It is not the celebration of Eid Milad un Nabi that divides Muslims. It is the denial of the Eid Milad un Nabi that divides Muslims.
One of the most deceiving arguments presented by the opponents of Eid Milad un Nabi (Sallallaho Alaihe Wasallam) is that the National Days, formation of organizations and contesting elections are the matters of this world (Dunya). They are not part of the Sharia of Islam but those who celebrate the birthday of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) they do it as a part of Islam and the Islamic Sharia. Therefore, Eid Milad un Nabi is Bid’a because Prophet did not make it a part of Islam. What a strange, deceiving and un-Islamic argument is this?
Holy Qur’an says; O believers enter into Islam completely and do not follow the footsteps of Shaitan, surely he is your clear-cut enemy. (Surah Al-Baqara, Ayah 208).
It means for a believer there is not a single moment in life that can be outside of Islam OR Islamic Shari’a. We Muslim believe that all actions of a believer such as work, family time, sitting with friends, husband-wife relationships, sleeping, even exercising and playing are all part of Ibadah (worshipping of Allah) as long as the believer does it for the sake of Allah.
Qur’an says, “Say: Surely my prayer and my sacrifice and my life and my death are (all) for Allah, the Lord of the worlds” (The Cattle 6.162).
It means for a Muslim every worldly or non-worldly deed must be for Allah. Does this mean that when the haters of Eid Milad un Nabi carryout their “worldly deeds” they do it for their sake, not for Allah. They do not remain in Islam when they do “worldly” things because it will be encompassed by the Shari’a and they don’t want it to be seen as a part of Shari’a. I do not think that they believe this. Therefore, the above mentioned all Bid’a of the opponents of Eid Milad un Nabi (Peace be upon him) are done for the sake of Allah. Therefore, they see their practices (which are in fact Bid’a) as SHAR’EE (legitimate). Then why Eid Milad un Nabi can not be considered SHAR’EE (legitimate)?
Conclusion
All this confusion was started from Saudi Arabia after the Wahabi revolution. Before Wahabi revolution in Saudi Arabia Muslims used to celebrate their beloved Prophet’s Birthday without any confusion or restrictions. Muslims are now traveling more for Umrah and Hajj and many Muslims from various parts of the world work in Saudi Arabia. They think whatever is practiced in Makkah and Madinah must be correct. Imagine, if you were borne before the Wahabi revolution in Saudi Arabia, you would have seen the celebration of Eid-Milad with your own eyes in Makkah and Madinah. Abbasees, Fatemides, Ottomans and others ruled Makkah and Madinah and the most of the Muslim world for thirteen centuries. During these thirteen centuries Eid Milad un Nabi had never been disputed by any scholar of Islam including Imam Ibn Taymiyah (May Allah be pleased with him) who is the most authentic jurist of Islam for Saudis. http://islamicsupremecouncil.com/milad-un-nabi.htm#a
If every innovation (Bid’a) would have been a sin in Islam then Ameer ul Mo’mineen, Sayyidna Umar Ibn Al Khattab would have NEVER used the word “Ni’matul Bid’a” (beautiful innovation) for the Taraweeh prayers in congregation.
The Wahabi revolution was one of the major causes for the fall of Khilafah Al-Islamiyah. In the entire Muslim world Saudi Arabia is the only country where Eid—Milad-un-Nabi has been officially stopped. However, millions of Saudis do celebrate Eid Milad un Nabi (peace be upon him) inside their homes due to the
fear of persecution from the Mutawwas (the Wahabi civil militia). If you look at the beliefs and practices of KHAWARIJ who killed thousands of companions and the Ahlul Bait of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), you will find a very close resemblance between the KHAWARIJ and the opponents of Eid Milad un Nabi (peace be upon him).
Please read the Travel Story of Ibn-e-Batuta (Safar Nama Ibn Batutah) . He has described the eye-witnessed celebration of Prophet’s Birthday in Makkah inside the Haram and the city. Ibn-e-Batuta was just a traveler. He wrote what he saw in Makkah.
We must not pay attention towards the FITNAH created by the misguided and fanatics. Let’s go back to the Islamic traditions – the traditions practiced by all Muslims except the people who became the agents of Zionists and Crusaders.
I request all of you to celebrate the Birthday of Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) with utmost enthusiasm and devotion.
WE MUST SHOW THE WORLD THAT WE LOVE MUHAMMAD (PEACE BE UPON HIM) MORE THAN OUR OWN PARENTS, OUR OWN CHILDREN AND OUR OWN LIVES.
Let’s make a commitment on the Birthday of our HABEEB (Sallallaho Alaihe Wasallam) that we will follow his teachings for the rest of the year and during the remaining period of our lives. We will pray five prayers because Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) loved to perform the daily five prayers. We will do what he liked and we will stay away from what he (Peace be upon him) forbade.
Imam Ibn Hajar al-‘Asqalani (Rahmatullah Alaih), in his book al-Durar al-kamina fi ‘ayn al-Mi’at al-thamina, mentions that Allama Ibn Kathir (Rahmatullah Alaih), a muhaddith from among the followers of Ibn Taymiyya, “in the last days of his life wrote a book entitled Mawlid Rasool Allah (Sallallaho Alaihe Wasallam), which was spread far and wide. That book mentioned the permissibility and recommendability of celebrating the Mawlid.”
Ibn Kathir’s book was edited and published in 1961. In it he says, p. 19: “The Night of the Prophet’s birth is a magnificent, noble, blessed and holy night, a night of bliss for the believers, pure, radiant with lights, and of immeasurable price.”
May we live as the true lovers of Rasool-ullah (Sallallaho Alaihe Wasallam) and may we die in the love of Rasool-ullah (Sallallaho Alaihe Wasallam). Ameen

All your references are of no use….. Just answer this questions…. When was the Prophet(PBUH) born….. The exact date & date….. There are still conflicts with the exact day… Some say its 8th, Some say its 10th and some say 12th. What is 12th Rabi Awal famously know as or called …. Bara Wafa Rabi Awal…. That is the day the Prophet(PBUH) left this world…..So you are enjoying and celebrating his birth and death… at the same time. You ignorant man! First you proof that exact day…. then you celebrate. Do you even know what is Bida…. giving stupid references of National day celebration…. What has it got to do with deen???

I m sory my friend but u have really wrong thoughts about Celebrating Eid Milad un Nabi PBUH… agin i will say same thing… Will u ask ur children to celebrate your birthday… I think no… but if your children loves u most they will surely at least try to make your day full of happiness… Now Do u know how Sahaba R.A. express their feelings n love to Holy Prophet… i think no… it’s not abut celebrating the day… It’s about expressing our love to Holy Prophet PBUH… I agree that In Quran n Sunnah, we r not directly ordered to celebrate the day, but we have told to share love n happines n spatially for our Prophet PBUH… There many several thing which Prophet Muhamamd PBUH didn’t act in his life but we have references for every act we do in our present life… it is not about innovation in Islam… It is culture n every act that did not violate Basic principles of Quran n Sunnah is not Biddah n r not a way to Hell… My friend u need to think logically… try to find out references about every act we do in our present life… Celebrating Eid Milad un Nabi PBUH is neither Farz nor way to Hell if we didn’t do this….

@Azim Khan, Sahaba R.A expressed their feelings by following the sunnahs of the beloved Prophet (PBUH)which are still alive.

Dear friend Azim Khan
Celebrating this day is against lowfull. the sunnat mean following the way of Prophet PBUH. and our Prophet PBUH not celebrate his own or any ones birthday in his entire life. Muslim does only what our Prophet PBUH do in his life. any thing we do which Prophet PBUH does not do in his life is against sunnat, false.

I m sory my friend but u have really wrong thoughts about Celebrating Eid Milad un Nabi PBUH… agin i will say same thing… Will u ask ur children to celebrate your birthday… I think no… but if your children loves u most they will surely at least try to make your day full of happiness… Now Do u know how Sahaba R.A. express their feelings n love to Holy Prophet… i think no… it’s not abut celebrating the day… It’s about expressing our love to Holy Prophet PBUH… I agree that In Quran n Sunnah, we r not directly ordered to celebrate the day, but we have told to share love n happines n spatially for our Prophet PBUH… There many several thing which Prophet Muhamamd PBUH didn’t act in his life but we have references for every act we do in our present life… it is not about innovation in Islam… It is culture n every act that did not violate Basic principles of Quran n Sunnah is not Biddah n r not a way to Hell… My friend u need to think logically… try to find out references about every act we do in our present life… Celebrating Eid Milad un Nabi PBUH is neither Farz nor way to Hell if we didn’t do this….

AssalamOAlaikum,
Every muslim loves Prophet Muhammed (PBUH), but we are never & neither will be closed to the Sahabas Like Abu Bakr R.A or Umar Farooq R.A or any other sahabas of that time they were the Sahabas who did anything for our beloved Rasul Allah & they followed what Rasul Allah taught them, i don’t think & neither there are any proofs as per my knowledge that Rasul Allah ever told them to celebrate his birthday if it was so then surely it might have been there in any Hadith or Allah might have surely mentioned it in Quran as well. Because among all the Prophets Allah gave Muhammed (PBUH) the highest place where no one can ever reach. If really love our Rasul so much then we must follow his teaching, sunnah’s, recite & understand Holy Quran & perform Salah.
Please think with cool mind what are we doing & why are we doing this.
I use to go to Juloos when i was kid, but now i am grown up & i have stopped that practise.

Do u know how Sahaba R.A. express their feelings n love to Holy Prophet… i think no… it’s not abut celebrating the day… It’s about expressing our love to Holy Prophet PBUH… I agree that In Quran n Sunnah, we r not directly ordered to celebrate the day, but we have told to share love n happines n spatially for our Prophet PBUH….

There are many incidents in history where the Sahab’s (RA) expressed their love and feeling to our Prophet(PBUH). SO don’t say that you are expressing your love by celebrating. But you are just doing the opposite. You agree that in Quran and Sunnah there are no direct orders….yet you go against the Quran and Sunnah. This is how you show your love to our Prophet(PBUH). Please read the history of the Sahab’s(RA) and you will understand that you and I are nowhere near to the sacrifices that they have done for the Prophet. And why did the Sahab’s do it…… Just to express their feelings of LOVE to the Prophet(PBUH). … But they never celebrated the birthday the way the its done today… DO you think you are better than the Sahab’s

Will u ask ur children to celebrate your birthday… I think no… but if your children loves u most they will surely at least try to make your day full of happiness… Now only this is the point we celebrate this day… its all about love… but it didn’t mean that we do not love Holy Prophet PBUH in rest of the days….

if WE TAKE CELEBRATION as a party or something like we do in our usual life like birthday,marriage etc…..i think BOTH celebrations should have a difference…..we should say DAROOD ON MOHAMMAD (PBUH) pray, help poors etc…..instead of just wasting ur money on transportations for parties,lightning,flags etc….WE LOVE OUR PROPHET(PBUH) BUT NOT EXCEEDING LIMITS………

i am not sure why this question is raised in the minds of mulims. some kafir is asking the question is totally understood but now since muslims are asking the question….. it is a time think what hapeened to our Imaan. it is most logical thing to do…. from where islaam came?……who broght islaam?….obviously Nabi-e-karim (PBUH)….when he was born….??? on this day itself…it is the beginging of an era when people recognised their haqeeqi mabood Allah. it is the celebration of wahdaaniyat over shirk and kufr….otherwise we would have been doing pooja of ram and krishna….celebrating Diwali and govinda….as far as decorating homes and masjid is concerned… i am sure it is only a question of how priviledge the people are…..i am sure decorating a jhopda in dharavi means putting a RS 60 china light that is nothing to what muslim people spent in living a modern and ultra rich lifestyle in mega rich apartmnets in saudi arabia…or dubai…or anywhre else in the world.. u think that will be considered as Iseaaf….if islaam is the religion of simplicity why so much of fund has been used in beautification of masjids all over the world…
