Description:
In this video, Shaykh-ul-Islam Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri explained what the Islamic and jurisprudential ruling is for Muslims regarding Christian festivals, particularly participating in Christmas celebrations or cutting a cake on December 25th. The video clarifies that cutting a cake in itself is among permissible actions (mubah), and the real issue depends on the occasion and intention. It also highlights that there is a shared respect between Muslims and Christians regarding the miraculous birth of Prophet Jesus (A.S), and the Quran mentions sending salutations on his "birth day" in Surah Maryam. Furthermore, the video sheds light on the respect for the Torah in the light of the Prophetic Sunnah ﷺ and discusses the ‘best’ way to invite non Muslims to Islam, promoting positive thinking and interfaith harmony in society.
