Navigating Christmas as a Muslim | Dr. Shabir Ally
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- What should Muslims do on Christmas? Some Muslims refuse to say "Merry Christmas", and others decorate their homes with Christmas trees and presents. Dr. Shabir Ally says that we can do things during the Christmas season that are Muslim things to do, because we believe in Jesus, on whom be peace, and we believe in having decent, halal fun. He advises that we use the occasion to remember the life of Jesus and get together as a family to have dinner together on Christmas day.

Christian here (Catholic). I love these videos. The Teacher here is magnificent. He defends his faith, but he doesn’t disparage Christians as he does it. The world is turning away from God, and I pray that Muslims and Christians can fight together in common cause to turn the world back toward Him, our creator, our only hope, our common belief: God.
love this comment
Allah is the greatest of deceivers
Either your a Muslim going to jannah or you are an infidel. No in between.
@@Maicon-b1b why do you come to the people teaching to respect others and the goods of wishing happiness, why do you come to insult their beliefs?
I don't hold a particular religious belief, but i'll never go insulting people, i'll respect your beliefs but don't expect it back if you don't respect others.
As a Christian, with very limited knowledge of Islam.....this gentleman was most respectful of his views for all. I wouldn't mind hearing more from him.
I’m a Christian I’m converting
Agreed

I am Christian and when my Muslim friends are wishing me a Happy Christmas, my heart starts to sing and almost burst with love and affection. This happens because a know that their faith is different from mine, but they are showing me that they want me to be happy and fulfilled in what I belief. This is one of the most generous and loving acts possible. Their well wishing makes me think that their faith is also a faith full of respect and love. In this we are deeply connected, believer to beliefer, human to human, generous person to generous person. When we are thinking and acting petty we make our faith look petty. When you Muslim brothers and sisters are wishing me a Merry Christmas you are gaining my respect for you as a person and your faith. Thank you to all of you who are great beliefers. Thank you for your generous words.
I live in London,over here we all respect and celebrate eachother holy days ,or atleast we respect eachother.masallah dr Shabir alby
Happy Christmas 🌲🌲

Yes best comment👏.
GOD is testing us so love GOD and love our neibours. I love my Muslim friends, they work for me.
Religion is very interesting but we are all GODS children.
Please enlighten me if you can give me linguistic meaning of " CHRISTMAS", nt detailed or speculation, imaginations, etc. Just linguistic meaning.
Thanks

Ahahah he is Pakistani and they are energy of Islam
As a practicing Catholic, I was determined to go to the nearest Mosque to assure the Muslims there that I had no ill-will towards them after 9/11. They were shocked and surprised by our kindness to them. I was a little surprised at how they worship. While men and teenaged boys prayed in one area, women, girls and little boys pray in another. We are so used to families praying together. It was a real eye-opener. We also are used to wearing shoes while praying.
It is such a shame that the Muslims were lied on about 9/11.
It was NOT the Muslims that did that !
But it was very kind of you to let the people know that you did not blame them .🥰
9 11 was an inside job look up a video called loose change wasn't muslims
When a faith is diluted from its true source: in your case, Catholicism fell out of communion with the Orthodox Church. Differing practices begin to emerge. Look how different a Protestant service is compared to a Catholic service. And on it on it goes. The Jews separate by gender as does the orthodox Christians as do the Muslims. The true abrahamic religions all share this same practice. It is the schismatic or misguided offshoots of a particular branch of the abrahamic religions that are the “different” ones.
Lmao. The mohammedans are quite silly
As a former Christian, the vast majority of Christians do realize he wasn't born on December 25th but choose that day to celebrate his birth, you don't have to worship him to be glad he was born! , before I was Muslim I always wished My friends that were Muslim Greetings during their holidays... Sadly Some Muslims think if you simply say something to someone the world will end... here's a hint, it won't!!
Happy Christmas ⛄🎄
As a former Christian I agree with this statement. Most of us in America celebrate that day without really paying attention to the Jesus aspect. To most of us it’s all about spending time with family and getting a day off from work haha.
Wishing isnt Haram..... participation is....you can take example of Ali RA....he recieved gifts from the Persians...he didn't threw them away😁
Our dear Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) never *ever* told us to congratulate the holidays of disbelievers. In fact, our Prophet wanted us to be so different from disbelievers that he told us we can’t even imitate them, and purposefully told us to do many things that differentiated us away from them. Claiming that Jesus (peace be upon him) is the son of God is such a horribly severe claim, it is one of the worst claims someone could make! By the One who’s hand my soul is within, I will NOT congratulate someone on celebrating a holiday of which the origin of the holiday claims such an egregious accusation against God that He has a son, authoobillah.
@Omar89 Yup. One of the most popular festivals of pagan Roman was Saturnalia, in honor of the titan Saturn, and it was celebrated from Dec. 17-23th. Once the Roman Empire left paganism the state just replaced this festival with Christmas since the populous was already use to these dates being a public holiday. All the none religious aspects of Christmas (Trees, elfs, reefs, etc.) also have pagan roots from the Germanic holiday of Yule celebrated by the Vikings before their conversion.
Your videos are a must for this new generation
Meaning as a must to indoctrinate and the reformist ideology into our new Muslim brothers and sisters?
This isnt an attack on you brother - but you highlight part of the problem; Islam isnt meant to change. one Islam - one ummah.
People that cheer reform should know that reform is just another word for change and it is not our place to change islam based on the tastes of the passing generation, it is our place to uphold -- if people dont agree with islam, then they should walk the path that they feel convinction to walk - but not try to change the path of the ummah to suits their own tastes. There are lots of pretty lies these days... People of the book have done this in the past and their deeds and punishments were recorded as warnings to us. We can heed the warnings or join them.

@@S6WLUKAS actually..................... we already changed alot of things................ schoolars like shabbir ali is ccorrecting us...........
In my country it's easy, when Bali Hindu celebrate Nyepi we respect them and let them be, when Christian celebrate Christmas we let them be, this is my family kind of tolerance and we as a family sometimes have our own holiday trip to avoid joining the celebration or getting an off day not to being awkward and avoiding greetings that dangerous, avoiding shirk... But nowadays we live in a global village and I kinda need more guidance. Alhamdulillah jazakumullah khair 🤲 I need this kind of reminder that it's indeed can be the moment of da'wah too or at least just remembering and educating our own (muslim) youths about the prophet story in Islamic version

Happy Christmas ⛄🎄
I have embraced Islam 33 years ago. Before I am Islam, I went to the temples, church for just a visit. I only believe there is only one Creator. For me, temples, the church is only worshipping house. It is only a building. Celebrating any festival whether it is related to religion or otherwise, does not keep my faith away that ONLY ONE CREATOR WHO CREATE ME. Putting up a Christmas tree with ornaments is just like the Muslims in Malaysia lighting up their homes with lights to celebrate. It is nothing to do or relate to the FAITH INSIDE YOU. By just saying Merry Christmas or Happy Aid will make a person become a Christian or a Muslim? The answer will be NO. I have been wishing my Christian friends for 33 years and even putting up a Christmas tree at home and I am still a Muslim and my faith to Allah and the only ONE CREATOR!! Yes, you are right Dr Shabir, these are no-brainy people. I came across some of my Muslim friends who can't even walk and watch Christmas trees in KL. If your FAITH is strong, NOTHING WILL GETTING IN BETWEEN UR FAITH! This is my principle. If you are so afraid meaning, your faith in ur religion is faking. And please respect other religions as to how our Prophet Muhammad PBUH did. Christmas is not even Jesus birthday. It is just another day we celebrate in any country, national day, teacher's day, mother's day, fathers' day and so on. So why so TABOO of wishing MERRY CHRISTMAS???
Happy Christmas 🎄🎄🎄☃️
Merry Christmas and Peace be upon you
Birthday itself is a pegan ritual. We Muslims don't do birthdays. If you want to celebrate it I have no problem. But if I don't want to say Merry Christmas, am I faking my religion?
Christmas is mixed with paganism and on top; some believe that the Creator had a son. To make matters more confusing for children Jusus had a father. 25th is the birth of the Sun God. These are question which children have posed.
Well, I'd avoid the trees in the house part. Do trees belong in houses? What commonly happens to these trees after the holidays? Is that good stewardship of what Allah has given us? And not getting too involved in the consumerism, cuz that's not great for muslims.
There are people who object to mothers' day and fathers' day on religious grounds because we should treat our parents as well every day of the year.
Or how about making your own winter celebration in January? A special day to brighten spirits and it doesn't overtly have religious significance. For me, December isn't deep enough in winter. Some time in JANUARY, now, the popular holidays have passed, it's still winter, 2 months and a couple weeks before the weather will start to show real promise of spring and weather getting less brisk. I spend enough time in nature to see the newest starts of budding and signs of growing, but lots of people don't stay connected enough to see the little signs. When others are taking their lights down, you can be brightening things up with new ones. It would draw my attention and a smile. It's nice sharing a holiday with so many people in America at the same time, it's also nice seeing other people randomly celebrate during the year. Tell random people: "Happy Holly Day" or "Happy Grapefruit Day" or whatever, and you can explain you do your own celebration just for fun and you like to spread some joy or humor to outsiders, as well. Celebrations are fun to experience and why does it have to be the standard reasons, like a birth, graduation, or a religious day? Make it appeal to the kids in your life and make it great to rival the Christmas season so they can tell their friends, "We don't celebrate Christmas like you do, but my family does THIS which is as good or better!"
Alhmdullillah, what a thoughtful insight. May Allah bless you with more Knowledge. Ameeen

@@hva22if you dont wish, it is fine.but wishing is not haram. For me, wishing does not mean we accept their beliefs. It is a matter of courtesy each of them and us share. Rasul(sa) time.was theoretical society and our period is integrated society where most of the people do celebrate just for the sake of their identity and not much for beliefs they hold. It is a matter of harmony as they wish us for eid. We need to see with deep fiqh. It is not a big matter in islam...During rasul sa time ,people of all faiths are very rigid in their beliefs and they won't compromise. They won't wish due to that and our period is different. If they do good to us, we can reciprocate same good.the core purpose of islam is uniting hearts. We must recognize this fact.
@@hva22 just to correct you, that was during the time where the disbelievers the prophet was talking about were the pagans, so of course he advised his people not to imitate them, but Christians are much closer to us Muslims in belief, so your argument is invalid
@@hva22 thats towards polytheists, not towards christians or jews

Hmmm, so you think Christians are not Polytheists ?
Christmas is not for Jews, just for your information, in case you forget.
Bless Dr Shabir, you have been a light to this ummah
Please do more research he's one of those reformists that are trying to change Islam
@Farhan Ibn Mahmud him and other so-called scholars are trying to change Islam to conform to Liberal Western society
@Farhan Ibn Mahmud to get more information look at the UA-camr the Muslim skeptic
@@abdirahmanmohamed6567 You mean Daniel Pikachu, the Salafi fundamentalist ? Yeah no thanks. They are enjoying the Infidel benefits living in Infidel lands while badmouthing them. These hateful SoBs are what's wrong with Islam today. Dr Shabir is not a reformist. He's just not a Wahabi or Salafi who made Islam into something hateful just so they could stay different from the liberal minded Ottomans, while licking British and French boots.
@@jamieammar6131 first of all dear brother have you even listened to the person criticizing someone while not listening to their views isn't good manners for example this brother in the video I have listened to almost always videos so if you want to criticize the Muslim skeptic listen to at least 20 of his videos not just the debates but the one speaking about Islam
Also, Christmas isn't really about Jesus since he wasn't even born on that day. The holiday has pagans roots, I believe in God and I say "Merry Xmas" to people who like to celebrate the holiday even if I don't really care for it (I'm not a muslim). I think many Christians know that Christmas isn't really about Jesus birth (in fact, nowhere in the bible is stated that we should celebrate anniversaries or something like that), it's more of a cultural thing and Dr. Shabir is right. Why read so much into it, it's just an event that people enjoy where no harm is done (and many people are happier for that matter). I think Jehovah's Witnesses have more issues with Christmas than Muslims do lol
Yes. Truth. I have also read it in a article. That Jesus Christ wasn't actually born on that day. Christains actually celebrate this day believing that three wise men had come to meet lord Jesus. But Jehovah's witness don't celebrate it on that day.
Are you from Jehovah's witness?
As a christian, i also know that jesus wasn't born in december but in september.
It was established by the pope many years ago that his birth would be celebrated in december since the catholics wanted people to embrace christianity more than other pagan traditions at the time.
However, my family and church celebrate christmas with the focus on the birth of jesus and the reason he came into this world. We are grateful to God becaus he sent his only son Jesus to live among us and die for our sins.
Even though the date is not correct, we are still praising God for what he did. We should obviously be grateful every single day throughout the year but this day has been established to be a big day so there is no harm in giving thanks and praising our heavinly father for coming down to earth for us in the form of a human.
Islam has pagan roots
May Allah guide you brother
I personally am an atheist and have much respect for other religious beliefs, unless people use religion as hate towards people, and I think this is a really well explained video, and was very interesting for someone who has not grown up with any religion, me and my family do celebrate Christmas, just really because it’s a fun time, we give gifts to eachother, and we see our family, (although we don’t celebrate any of the religious parts) this was a well made video with well explained things, and they seemed all to be reasonable 👍
True gift is love and care towards humanity if any religion doesn’t teach then it’s dead .
any good christian would be glad you are celebrating Christmas, even if you have yet to accept Christ

Recently "Let the Quran speak" sure does seem to sound a lot more like "let popular culture speak, through the Quran". The video topics have been slipping more and more into generic youtube content, just with an islamic flavour. I dont say this as an insult but as an honest observation.
But as we believe everything this shaikh days based on Quranic sayings and sahih hadiths...
@@bodymind195 most Orthodox Muslim leaders would not agree with him, his views are somewhat deviant and of reformist a ideology
As a Christian I think Shabir is right. There's no reason that Muslims living in the West can't participate in the festivities without complaining Islamic beliefs. Small children don't understand why everyone is getting dressed up and receiving gifts but they don't.
Like he said if the whole family are free why not have a meal and do some fun things together.. Why not be more kinder and considerate? Something we all need.
Muslims have the advantage of recognizing Jesus as a prophet than say Atheists.
I've had disagreements with Muslims when I've said happy Christmas. I also have wished Muslims happy Eid and don't feel compromised as a result iof that but recognize that this is an important date for you so I wish you lovely day.
@@Jen8973 nobody is wishing christians ill - I say " have a good one" to anyone that says merry christmas to me in passing. But what people seem to fail to understand is that the vast majority of chritians dont celebrate Jesus [Isa PBUH the profit], they !worship! jesus-the-man-god - which is idolatry.
I have no problems with christians* doing their own thing and I fully support everyones freedom to express their own religious convictions - but it is haram for muslims to partake in such things. plain and simple.
@@bodymind195 Not true - please show me your authentic source, brother. Please show me your authentic source where any of Gods prophets said that it was ok to take part in idolatry "just a little bit" or mix up the beauty of his work with a pagan festival.
With the greatest respect, you are misguided on this matter.. and this video does not reflect the core views of Islam (they seek to please people with words and appear "moderate"). We can have respect for this shaikh and eachother and still disagree on things. Allah knows best.
Jazakallah. A great balanced answer.
Agreed
It's not balanced it's a reformist ideology
The key issue is not whether Muslims can celebrate Christmas in Christian societies, but whether christians can celebrate Christmas in Muslim societies! Only the Christian ethic gives one a right to be wrong and does not enforce its view. Christ will not punish you for rejecting him. Sadly, this is not the same for Islam. There is no peace for non-muslims in Islamic societies.
Dr Shabbir Ally, sir you are a blessing, especially for those who live in a diverse society. Even simple things like greeting is made a huge deal by scholars who don't have any perspective of how a multicultural society works.
Happy Christmas ☃️🎄

Im muslim - i celebrate christmas in the sense og amazing food, family time and presents (a thing prophet Muhammad pbuh, said u should give and recieve).
This is all it has to be. Nothing else
That’s what Christmas is really. It has nothing to do with religions.
Christmas is "meant" to be the Season of Goodwill and Peace, in this regard, Dr Shabir's video is a real Christmas Message, please share it, we need more of such messages in the World. If someone is angered by, such a message, then please share your own message, so that we can compare. Christmas is the old mid winter festival, when the darkest days, switch to getting lighter, when animals were slaughtered at the point when fodder was low and they had got as fat as they could, when people were depressed from the Winter and Cold. Positive heart warming messages are needed at this time, whatever ones beliefs. Personally, what I dont celebrate is the rampant consumerism and commercialism. Peace be with ALL.
The thing is we don't care what its supposed to mean we I mean as in most Muslims we believe that Jesus was a prophet and messenger he should be respected but he should not be worshiped and this holiday represents the worship of a god so we will not comply with worship or celebration of this holiday
@@abdirahmanmohamed6567 I agree, and he never wished to be, its amazing how many Prophets have had personality Cults built around them and not their message, even when they were humble men who explicitly asked not be worshipped or adored. Christmas is actually the Midwinter Festival, most of what you see as Christmas is commercialism, that has hijacked it, which definitely has nothing to do with Religion. Dr Shabir explains, that you can celebrate Christmas, but do it in an Islamic way, he did not mention worshipping Jesus, the Bible, New Testament and Quran are very clear, worship only God.

Have to disagree. Wishing merry christmas and being happy for them on their happy day- is NOT reciprocation of compassion. But rather a true compassion for our Christian brothers/sisters would be to try to enlighten them about this incorrect festival, blindly observing which may lead to disastrous consequences in the hereafter. Of course we CANNOT be harsh, but at the same time this discussion needs to take place, which is not going to happen if we keep helping this to blindly perpetuate by wishing/being happy for them.

In case you didn’t know… UMAR the companion of rasool Allah said “ don’t gather and celebrate with the Jews and Christians on their day of eid, as the wrath of Allah descends upon them”. When umar the great caliph says this, which “Muslim” has the right to say it’s okay? Wow… this world is really finished. Knowledge and Islamic knowledge is slowly dying away… all that remains is false callers to Islam
Which part of the video did Dr. Shabir say gather and celebrate with Christians for Christmas?
When did Umar make this statement and how do you know this statement is true?
The continued quote also says, “as the wrath of Allah 👉🏾descends (present tense) upon 👉🏾them (the people of that time).” What were the Jews and Christians of Arabia celebrating in the 7th century? Was it Christmas? And what was the calamity that fell on them as a result of this wrath from Allah?

Awwww so cute Dr Shabir remember when Dr Safiyyah was little 🥺❤️😁
Dr. Safiya is Sr. Shabir’s daughter . 😊
Assalamualikum Dr. Shabeer as a Guyanese Muslim now residing In the USA and as a child I grew up in Guyana taking part in this joyous occasion with no meaning to it. Today I'm an adult and I'm still a believing muslim. Celebrating Christmas didn't change who I am.
I totally agree with everything that you said about us Muslims associating ourselves with Christmas. It was a detailed explanation in a calm and respectful manner to the Christian. I wish the other Muslim scholars, Imams and Islamic leaders are like you.
I believe what you said about the Christian support us Muslims when ever our mosque is vandalized or whenever a Muslim brother or sister is a victim of abuse by racism, the Christian and the Jews always comes out speak up for us. I always
admire that about them. But I can sadly say I never see the Muslims here do it in return.
I really enjoy this topic. Thank you sister Safiah and brother Shabeer. I just subscribe to your channel. May Allah bless you ❤
I disagree with this and please allow me to say why.
Greeting the kuffaar on Christmas and other religious holidays of theirs is haraam, by consensus, as Ibn al-Qayyim, may Allaah have mercy on him, said in Ahkaam Ahl al-Dhimmah: "Congratulating the kuffaar on the rituals that belong only to them is haraam by consensus, as is congratulating them on their festivals and fasts by saying ‘A happy festival to you’ or ‘May you enjoy your festival,’ and so on. If the one who says this has been saved from kufr, it is still forbidden. It is like congratulating someone for prostrating to the cross, or even worse than that. It is as great a sin as congratulating someone for drinking wine, or murdering someone, or having illicit sexual relations, and so on. Many of those who have no respect for their religion fall into this error; they do not realize the offensiveness of their actions. Whoever congratulates a person for his disobedience or bid’ah or kufr exposes himself to the wrath and anger of Allaah."
Congratulating the kuffaar on their religious festivals is haraam to the extent described by Ibn al-Qayyim because it implies that one accepts or approves of their rituals of kufr, even if one would not accept those things for oneself. But the Muslim should not aceept the rituals of kufr or congratulate anyone else for them, because Allaah does not accept any of that at all, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):
"If you disbelieve, then verily, Allaah is not in need of you, He likes not disbelief for His slaves. And if you are grateful (by being believers), He is pleased therewith for you. . ." [al-Zumar 39:7]
". . . This day, I have perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islaam as your religion . . ." [al-Maa’idah 5:3]
So congratulating them is forbidden, whether they are one’s colleagues at work or otherwise.
If they greet us on the occasion of their festivals, we should not respond, because these are not our festivals, and because they are not festivals which are acceptable to Allaah. These festivals are innovations in their religions, and even those which may have been prescribed formerly have been abrogated by the religion of Islaam, with which Allaah sent Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) to the whole of mankind. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
"Whoever seeks a religion other than Islaam, it will never be accepted of him, and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers." [Aal ‘Imraan 3:85]
It is haraam for a Muslim to accept invitations on such occasions, because this is worse than congratulating them as it implies taking part in their celebrations.
Similarly, Muslims are forbidden to imitate the kuffaar by having parties on such occasions, or exchanging gifts, or giving out sweets or food, or taking time off work, etc., because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Whoever imitates a people is one of them." Shaykh al-Islaam Ibn Taymiyah said in his book Iqtidaa’ al-siraat al-mustaqeem mukhaalifat ashaab al-jaheem: "Imitating them in some of their festivals implies that one is pleased with their false beliefs and practices, and gives them the hope that they may have the opportunity to humiliate and mislead the weak."
Whoever does anything of this sort is a sinner, whether he does it out of politeness or to be friendly, or because he is too shy to refuse, or for whatever other reason, because this is hypocrisy in Islaam, and because it makes the kuffaar feel proud of their religion.
Allaah is the One Whom we ask to make the Muslims feel proud of their religion, to help them adhere steadfastly to it, and to make them victorious over their enemies, for He is the Strong and Omnipotent.
Majmoo’ah Fataawa wa Rasaa’il al-Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen, 3/369)
Great answer! For muslims living in Canada that was a great response. We dont have to be harsh and show we are harsh for everything. When we are measured in our responses we will bring people towards our religion rather than against us.
Being harsh and being apologetic are two different things
If the Canadian government cared about our religion they would add Eid as a holiday

I agree with this scholar. No harm done. I have to ask my mentor InshaAllah. I do like his view point though.
When you wish merry Christmas, it means you wish peace on the day when Allah is
associated.Whereas you should stay away from it to show your displeasure with the greeting done. Instead you pray for it in your speech even you participate in rejoicing with them. Is that the way of a Muslim dakwah. Violating God merely to please the infidels

Dr Shabir Ally I respect a ton but this is his opinion only.
Happy eid is different from merry Christmas. It has nothing to do with human turned God. Stop confusing gullible Muslims. You are the type of scholars that prophet muhammad, saw, warned against.
You should be ashamed of your comment and repent for saying such horrendous things about the brother. God forbid.
Hello Dr Shabbir, Thanks for addressing this, it is simply a greeting, I was born Christian, but as a Canadian living in Toronto, I also go out of my way to greet others when celebrating their own religions, I think its just part of the new Canadian society. Growing up here, I learned about all religions and faiths and will continue to celebrate them.
Ask a Christian do you celebrate 🎊 Eid answer is hell no. Ask SHABIR well …… innovators are slippery with logic
I wish to my muslim friends "happy Eid" with a lot of love and respect. I also had the honor to share a celebration with one of them. I'm also very happy when they wish me " Merry Christmas"
Christmas is indeed such a wonderful time... As a Muslim I love the season of diwali,, Christmas and ofcourse eids... Coz the environment these days is so beautiful and lovely.. The streets are decorated people wear wonderful clothes... Everyone's filled with joy... I love to go shopping and wandering around the streets looking and admiring the festivals and thr traditions... This is how I celebrate other religion festivals... And yesss... Merry Christmas to all 😋😋
Happy Christmas 🌲🌲

Jesus was not born on December 25. He was actually born in June or July also Christmas came from the Northern European pagans, so that would make Christmas a pagan festival. In my opinion Muslims should not say merry Christmas.
@Omar89 Uh… most scholars and historians agree.
Based on the time of year Zacharias was in the Jewish Temple with his group, (August) the reported by Luke six months between the conception of John the Baptist and Jesus the actual date is likely to be October. Our UK Queen had an official birthday, just as 25 December is an official birthday.
@Omar89 The Quran and Bible both confirm that Jesus was born in the summer season. Either July or August. When Mary was experiencing childbirth pains Allah instructed her to shake the trunk of the palm tree. The Quran says "It will fall fresh ripe dates upon thee." Ripe dates can't be grown in Bethlehem during the winter season. It can only be grown around July and August.
My family is secular but sometimes listen to Christian hymns on Christmas. But its mostly about family and spending time together. I know ppl who celebrate it without religious content. I can't see why its wrong necessarily for muslims
That’s the thing though. As whites become a minority they will try and ban it under the guise of nobody is Christian anymore
@@krob2327 Christmas is literally bigger than its ever been despite the secularisation of the holiday
Your views changed Shabbir. I hope it works for everybody's good.
DONT SAY MERRY CHRISTMAS! DO YOU WANT TO PLEASE ALLAH! OR DO YOU WANT TO PLEASE THE ONE WHO ASSOCIATES PARTNER WITH ALLAH?! DESIST!!
Jesus' birthday is in the summer, it's literally based on the Bible, it took place in the summer not winter, so goes anything everything modern day Catholics and the many other Christians do. Ramadan was during summer time, and it was then that Jesus(may Allah be pleased with him) was born in the womb of his virgin mother, Mariam(may Allah be pleased with her). Christmas is a pagan religion, we shouldn't say "Merry Christmas", you can say happy holidays or have a great winter holiday!

I appreciate his thrive to 'harmonise' between two and also symphatisize with him having to do that, to live in 'peace'. I think whoever follows a faith with sincerity should not be pushed to compromise it just for the sake of living together. Muslims and Christians and all other people of different faiths do alot together in terms of coming together on a daily basis; they live together, eat in same places, study together, trade and do business together, work together and alot of things, isn't it enough for us to be in harmony with all these various coming together? Do we need to do acts or worship together to really finally come together? I think not!
Respecting me as a Muslim while am observing an act of worship is by giving me my space and the peace I require to do it, not doing it with me, because it is hypocritical to do something that you don't really believe in! In terms of joy and celebrations, just because alot of Christians have made Christmas a holiday nowadays instead of a religious act of worship, does not necessarily legitimise it to Muslims as so, simply because of it's original aim and purpose, it is meant to celebrate birth of Jesus as related to God, which no Muslim believes in, hence can and should not enjoin in, Simple! As Muslims, we have different Eids (Celebrations), with 2 major ones in a year after Ramadan and at the end of Hajj (Piligimage), minor one is one a week in the form of Jummu'ah (Friday congregation). I think it is left for us as Muslims to make the best spectacle out of these times, especially for our younger ones that are always in need of such activities!
Thank you! Excellent comment sir. As a fellow Nigerian currently studying in the southern part of the country, I understand and agree with you completely. JazakAllah khair!
As a Christian (Baptist) I agree with the others here in saying that we must work in harmony. To appreciate and love one another in humanity is the ultimate way to share and to communicate ones faith to the world, living life in harmony is a beautiful and serene thing. Blessings be Upon you all. Merry Christmas to all of you. And Happy Holidays to those of other faiths!
Yeah, these people are just biding their time. Don’t be naive
Imagine someone insulting your parents or someone dear and close to you, then taking that day as an annual celebration. Would you approve of it? Would you take part in it? Would you attend parties held before that day because ‘tis the season? Would you congratulate them for that celebration? Clearly, any sensible person with any intelligence would not.
However, when people have insulted Allah and celebrate that day and season, we find nothing wrong with joining in; you know, because we want to be “polite” and not be rude. God forbid we offend someone!
Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said that Allah said: "The son of Adam tells a lie against Me and he has no right to do so; and he insults Me and has no right to do so. His lying against Me is his saying that I will not resurrect him as I created him for the first time. In fact, the first creation was not easier for Me than resurrecting him again (they are both easy for Me). His insult to Me is his saying that Allah has begotten a son, while I am The One, The Eternal Refuge, Who begets not nor was He begotten, and there is none like unto Me." (Al-Bukhari)
Attending Christmas parties and celebrating Christmas or congratulating others on this occasion is not a matter over which scholars have differed. It is a matter of consensus; this is impermissible and strictly forbidden. This is the Islamic stance. As for those who say otherwise, they have erred and are misguided in this matter, plain and simple.
Are you saying that a prophet of Allah lied? Issa alaihi salaam (Jesus) is a prophet of The Almighty. The Islamic faith is believing in Allah and all His prophets. Be careful with your words brother. Isa is mentioned in the Qur'an. Those hold close to their hearts the Qur'an and the Hadith are on the right path. The Qur'an are the words of the almighty and the Hadiths are reported actions of the prophet ( saw). Disregarding one for the other is a big No No.
@@wardat379 I think you have not read my full comment ! Please don't accuse people without understanding the context ! I will recommend you to read the comment first to last again.

@@tahmidulislamraj I am not a native English speaker, so my tone might not have been appropriate and cause you to misunderstand my words as an accusation. My apologies if this is the case. My point is the Qur'an preach to respect other religions. :

“God does not forbid you from being good to those who have not fought you in the religion or driven you from your homes, or from being just towards them. God loves those who are just.” (Surat al-Mumtahana, 8)

So compete with each other in doing good. Every one of you will return to God and He will inform you regarding the things about which you differed.” (Surat al-Ma’ida, 48)

Christmas has pagan origins. Therefore I do not celebrate it.

I say we muslims should respect the belief of others. That's why I say "bonne fete" meaning happy festival. However, I do not share the same belief as my christian friends concerning Jesus as the son of god. That's why I do not participate in the festivities, just greet my friends.
Would you rather Christians wished Muslims Eid Mubarak or Bonne Fete? Would there not be more understanding of Islam from non Muslims, if they were invited to Muslim celebrations, so it is with Christmas, one can be involved with the wider Community, while strengthening their own faith and explaining it and sharing it with others. Peace.
@@LOFIGSD getting involved in other cultures dilutes your own culture the thing is Islam isn't only a culture it's a belief one of the fastest growing religions and it's well documented and researched when Muslims used to have caliphates other religions used to be in those caliphates but no one mixed in the religions

Christmas is derived from Saturnalia from the Roman Empire, certain traditional aspects of that holiday were adopted when the empire co-opted Christmas to fall on that day to appease pagans and Christians of the empire after Catholicism was made the ruling religion. But if you simply put up a tree to decorate and give gifts to your children and don’t acknowledge anything behind that and be in the moment, you are simply playing a game and giving gifts to make your children happy.
I agree with Dr. Shabir. I mean it won’t change your religion by greeting someone with their Holidays. We know that if our Iman is pure and solid we don’t need to worry about it. Giving Love to human for the sake of Allah is Sadaqah and he who knows your Niyat, your heart.

I think we should all live together and embrace each other’s differences. I’m not very religious but I do love learning about different cultures.
Nothing to do with culture in this video. Islam is NOT a culture. It is a religion. Full stop.
Christmas is nothing but the celebration of the birth of Jesus. It’s got nothing to do with believing that Jesus was the son of God. In fact, it’s an argument that Jesus was born (like every other human). God is the one that is unborn.

A good question, I could see that upsetting bigots with stereotypical views of how Muslims should behave and dress, personally, I dont go in for the commercialism of Christmas and dont own such a Jumper, but might be fun for Children, lets be honest, there is very little going on at Christmas that is do with Jesus, most of it is to do with selling Products. Christmas should be about peace and goodwill and family, charity to those in need, which are all aspects Muslims are strong in. If I was going to buy a garish Jumper just for Christmas, that would be wasteful, better to buy a bright Jumper that can be worn at any cold time of year and maybe given to a homeless person in need. Peace.
No thank you! I would not say Merry Christmas. I would say Happy Holidays! Islam is very clear , your religion is your and my religion is mine.
Funny enough I was actually talking about "Jewish Christmas" to a group of Muslims at a coffee shop the other day. It's not a real Jewish Holiday, but it's understood as a day where only move theaters and chinese food restaurants are open so we Jews get Chinese food and go see a movie. I was asking if Muslims do something similar.
If you are a layman in Islam . I would advise you not to listen to him.
Assalaam alaikm .... Abdulkarim from Uganda...
I thought this program is "let the Quran speak", and I have not heard of any evidence from Quran to back up Dr. Shabir's statements.....!!!
I really agree that we should not make Islam to look as if it's against everything but we shouldn't at the same time be too permissive . Out religion always takes a balanced/middle approach. I don't think it's right to outrightly say that we can celebrate Christmas given the various verses in the Quran which regard all issues around Christian view of Jesus as plain falsehood and blesphemy in religion. For you the Muslims in Canada it's holidays, so the talk should be about celebrating holidays if at all you must celebrate!! The idea of inclining rulings to what the community will say if I don't do this and that is not necessarily the best approach because it can be misguiding most of the times ...Remember the soul always inclines where it finds pleasure except that guided by Allah...and this why Allah had to send guidance. I know that many do not want to use evidences from Hadith but there is one Hadith that you will have to believe since it's online with the English saying that you definitely believe. The prophet SAW said "whoever (intentionally) likens him/herself to a group of people, he/she is from them....
And the English saying goes..."birds of the same feathers, flock together".
Shabbir Ally, find me ONE statement, only one statement where the Prophet ﷺ or his companions congratulated the Christians on their holidays.
Stay out of our business Muslims. You don't see us infidels engaging in or interfering with your tradition I expect that in return.
I am sorry but this guy is totally incorrect. It is not the role of a Muslim to please non muslims incase they get offended but our obedience is only to Allah. ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Amr ibn al-‘Aas said: The one who follows the tradition of non-Muslims and observes their Nawrooz and Mahrajaan (festivals), and imitates them until he dies like that, will be gathered with them on the Day of Resurrection. I live in Britain and never say Merry Christmas to anyone nor do I participate in any of thier transitions. My colleagues respect me more now, knowing where I stand
Shabir, our Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) never *ever* told us to congratulate the holidays of disbelievers. In fact, our Prophet wanted us to be so different from disbelievers that he told us we can’t even imitate them, and purposefully told us to do many things that differentiated us away from them. Claiming that Jesus (peace be upon him) is the son of God is such a horribly severe claim, it is one of the worst claims someone could make! By the One who’s hand my soul is within, I will NOT congratulate someone on celebrating a holiday of which the origin of the holiday claims such an egregious accusation against God that He has a son, authoobillah.
Shabir, please delete this response. This is extremely dangerous.
Nobody cares dude. And Shabbir will not delete his video.
Being the only Muslim in my family. I don't like to say merry christmas. It's really a pagan holiday. It's disrespect to ALLAH.

Thanks you for this thoughtful conversation. Using an Islamic approach, I doubt Jesus would have advocated the celebration of his birthday. What he asked is that he be remembered in the act of communion. Easter, the day of the Christian resurrection, is vastly more significant. Happy we are seeing a growing recognition that neither Christianity or Islam are existential threats to each other. Rather, atheism is the common threat. Even on my iPhone, when I type Christmas 🎄 🎅 🤶 … these are the icons I get … no nativity, no crosses. The pagan date, the commercialization, and the secular corruptions of Christmas are the true affront not just to Christianity but to Islam as well, in that the secular corruption of any religion’s holy days and meaning are an offense to all People of Faith. 🙏
