Origins of New Year's Eve

[ServeGodSaveTheEarth]

it's ok that We should just follow the Calendar so that we have all the guide.. and we should not follow the Christmas day that the roman catholic forced that it's birthday of our Lord Jesus Christ. But it's the celebration of the pagan's sun god. And that is against the God's Law..

[HenixII]

@ServeGodSaveTheEarth where are you getting your info from? most muslims have only one wife, and we aren't mandated to have more than one, its just a choice.

[ServeGodSaveTheEarth]

Can I asked a Question? Why is it that most of the Muslims had more than one wife? Is it not against the God's Law?

[TheDiosadelamor]

@ServeGodSaveTheEarth "You will never be able to be fair and just among women (wives)...." Qur�an (4:129) Islam does allow having more than one wife it has set conditions for that, Allah allowed having more than one wife only if the husband treats his wives equally. If a man has more than one wife, he must treat them all in an equal manner, emotionally and financially. For example, he has to provide separate living accommodation for each of his wives.

[TheKinzap]

@ServeGodSaveTheEarth, "Marry woman of your choice in twos' threes' or fours' but if ye fear that ye shall not be able to deal justly, (with them), then only one' [Al-Qur'an 4:3]" In islam it's actually allowed for men to have up to 4 wives so it's not going against god's law but there are conditions to that.Its not really ordering you to have more than four wives but it's telling the limit because back then men would have way too many wives and weren't able to care for them or their children

[princeicio]

Who is this and where is he from?

[hannahr77]

What has Rome to do with JESUS CHRIST?

[kurdishleader]

@Commaction1 greetings, If you are interested in Islam, I suggest you read the English translation of Qur'an. Peace

[commaction1]

I'm not Muslim and don't know much about Islam but listening to these teachings makes me want to become Muslim. No one else is pointing out the lack of morals that surround us everyday. The people of power in this country and even the common people should be sicken by our sinking moral fiber.

[HKAMARA]

I hate it when these people try to get you to buy lectures. Not many people will actually sit down and watch videos let alone go through the trouble to buy it. I wish these muslims will understand and stop trying to sell lectures because it just making the message more difficult to spread.

[UnitedUmmahinshAllah]

@HKAMARA

Maybe instead of inventing some negative aspect of the talk! You could do some research, break-away from whats infront of you and free your mind.

Least we can do is THANK those gifted brothers and sisters who have knowledge, mashAllah TabrakAllah.

Dont be a slave of this world, be a slave of Allah (swt)

[HKAMARA]

@UnitedUmmahinshAllah I didn't say anything negative about the talk. I love Sheikh Abdul Hakim Quick. I want to listen more of the lecture, hence that's why I'm saying they should post the entire video instead of trying to sell it. All I'm saying is that WE SHOULDN'T TRY TO SELL THE MESSAGE OF ISLAM. The rewards from Allah is wayyyy GREATER than the income you can ever get from it in this world. Hope I made myself clear this time.

[UnitedUmmahinshAllah]

@HKAMARA

Hmm, yeah I guess. Sorry for the ourburst before. Well, this brother seems to have high iman mashAllah. Maybe the 'selling' of the talk is for an exchange of charitable means such as helping the poor OR financing an Islamic project.. I'm sure these Sheikhs are deffo not after the money themselves!

[CivilizedMan444]

... Only fools quote other fools

[olivemike81]

Not every Christian gets drunk on New Year's Eve. For a guy who belongs to a religion that is constantly complaining about how it gets generalized and stereotyped, maybe he should think about that.

[HKAMARA]

@olivemike81 I don't think the scholar is marginalizing all Christians. However its honest to point out that Christians do get drunk, regardless the number of christians who do. The point is that it goes against their very own book, ESPECIALLY on the day they consider to be their holiest day.

[Nataliya123]

uhmm so now new years eve is haram? :S

[Imhornydadcomeinside]

I love beautiful paganism!

[Pinkhudy0628]

wOW i never knew that soo. exactly when is the islamic new years and is there a islamic new years and where and how this become of it.???

[aishaxoxobela]

I met him 2 last wk

[fbeg84]

It is best for us muslims to stay away from things that are doubtful. Also we will be raised on the day of judgement with those whom we imitated. We should renew our intentions and check them every action we do, not only once a year, who knows if we will see the next second.

[fahade13]

i am a muslim and i think this is a load of fukkin bullshit .. these kind of muslims seem to twist and turn religion in the best way suitable for them ..

[moshalhat]

the good thing is that Islam is not about what I or you think, but what Allah wants us to do :-)

[DaTruthization]

This bruvah is amazing may allah make it easy for him and reward him heaven

[foxtrotalpha08]

[Shabzana]

[Pinkhudy0628]

'Only those who lack knowlegde and common sense use faul words to express themselves

[MasterNour]

@Pinkhudy0628 i compltety got the typing wrong soz bout all that

[sulayman360]

thanks a lot brother, Jazakallah khairan

[gjylymsere]

so we muslims cant celebrate the new years? ive heard somone say this before..? and not all people drinks on new years eve, its a time to be with ur family and wish eachother well for the new year,,,,if u do it with these intentions, i dont find anything wrong with it...someone answer

[hmohdkhan]

@gjylymsere Peace be upon you

It is not about just drinking brother....

Firstly It is not permissible to greet or congratulate on the occasion of New Year Eve or any of their other holidays because they are not festivals that are prescribed in our religion, and returning their greeting is an affirmation and approval of them.

"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]

[hmohdkhan]

Secondly New Year is Roman Pagan Festival as being told in the lecture.....

Hence following them will ultimately wrong...

Peace be upon you

[groundboy16]

@hmohdkhan Hmm... Well maybe during the Era of the Romans did New Years mean something to their Gods, but nowadays it implies on celebrating the new year. We live in a society run by the Solar Calendar.

[91mujahid]

the only thing we celebrate is eid. new years is pagan... if u lisen2 da talk ul undastnd dat it cumz from the belief of a diffrent way of life.

[nawali111]

the celebration is belongs to kafir because they are the one who created this party, the prophet saw said if you do they'r party and join them then you are one of them and he will refuse you to be one of his ummah.

anyway every bidáh is batil and every batil is haram

[ashtile]

I get really fed up with these so called "scholars" ranting on about things they don't understand. Rome originally celebrated the New Year in March but in

153 BC they changed it to January. The Roman god Janus is two faced but he is not a hypocrite as alleged by this person. January was named after Janus and one face looks back at the old year and the other face looks forward to the new year - hence the two faces.

It does your religion no favours to tell lies about our culture.

[TheArif01]

@ashtile you haven't grasped what he is saying. Showing 2 faces is a trait of hypocrisy. Being 2 faced, what does the term imply in common terms? hypocrisy.

No one's attacking your hybrid of cultures mon ami. The brother is just providing food for thought. If you claim he is lying, then make a response video or even better write to him. Until then, keep quiet. :-)

[phatrick21]

get a rooom

[halima132]

This brother is educated has an Ph.d. He has traveled to over 55 countries on lecture, research and educational tours. So I think he knows what he is talking about

[halima132]

It's just using comment sence, don't even need to do any research really. I just think that the poor christians are the ones loosing, because they are the brain washed believing in a religion that has a pagan background. celebrating pagan hollidays.

[cbens]

All people believing in religions are brainwashed.

[groundboy16]

@halima132 Like what, where in the Bible does it say celebrate New Years? Where does it say celebrate all these other holidays? The only religious holidays they have is Christmas(Birth of the Messiah), and Easter(Resurrection). I see Muslims who celebrate Muhammed's birthday, are all Muslims wrong?

[hannahr77]

@groundboy16

there's a celebrating of New Year in the O.T. we also have Pentecostal which is after Passover

[halima132]

Western world is not corrputing muslims. I grew up in germany never celebrated pagan hollidays, i always knew that christmas, valentine, Hallowen, and all the others where pagan celebration.

[RicoRaul]

TO muslims,,western world is SUCCESSFULLY corrupting your people with our PAGAN idealogies and rituals.WELCOME TO AMERICA..COMING SOON TO MECCA,,HOLLYWOOD,,the fall of ISLAM! HE HE LOL

[RicoRaul]

ABDULLAH!! FLASH NEWS!! WE did NOT walked into your history,,YOU and your people WALKED into ours,IF you DO NOT like our CULTURAL AND OUR PAGAN holidays,it is simple GO to a country that does not practice or worhips PAGAN DIETIES!

[rawrimaprick]

actually... britian, spain, the french, the dutch, etc. were the ones who conquered the world during the 19th, 20th century, so.... YOU walked into OUR history u retarded fuck.

[NotDarek]

You shouldn't take anyone's advice in stone unless they have proper educational credentials. I'm not saying this person does, or does not, but anyone can preach.

[lyrical77]

anyone can get credentials. any fool can get a piece of paper. I have a political science degree; doesn't make a expert on politics. be careful...if you take this approach in life towards advice and counsel you may miss out on good info because they didn't meet your "educational credential" expectations

[Lonedreamer]

@lyrical77 Getting a degree is hard. I am studying in university. Not everyone can get in this rat race and stay alive and on top. Don't disrespect people who give up their lives and nights to study and research. It shows ignorance.

[ramp31]

my prophet did not know how to read so in western society he be considered un-educated,, but belive me he had what education could never give you ''wisdom''

credentials dnt mean nothing all the people that seriously changed the world had non,, to name a few mohamed,, jesus,,,moses,,,alexder the great,,,gangis khan,,,plaito,, anyway u get my point

[ranger1360]

so a river of pagen has made it into the river of monothesitic faiths like christiandum. islam is pure. i am not a muslim but i would choose islam over any belief.

[GraandHustleMafia]

i dont understand him can someone explain to me??

[dulaldick]

yeah, ill try. what sheikh hakim quick was talking about was the covert intermingling of two different philosophies into one. monotheism and polytheism.

he was explaining how most christians today, professing to be monotheistic (beliief in THE ONE TRUE GOD) are actually practicing pagan rituals without even knowing them.

[SylhetyManz]

i love islam

[Paperclip2000]

this is an attempt at cultural genocide.

[wulfsragar]

so what, new years eve is pagan, good for us heathens, finally we can take back wich is ours.

[NotYourEnemy]

masha'Allah I don't celebrate it thanks to Allah I always felt it was wrong!

[peterturanec]

Jesus is the most quoted prophet in the quaran, They bombed innocent people to try to murder Saddam when they gave him those chemical weapons to go to war with Iran. This is the information they hold back from Peter Jennings B/C Condeleza Rice is just a new age Sally Hemmings.

[lilslip441]

u got dah frm da song "THE 4TH BRANCH"

love dah song

[wulfsragar]

can someone just please tell this guy to visit a library JUST ONES IN HIS PATHETIC LIFE!!!!

[rencrow]

The truth too hard to swallow eh?

[lilslip441]

how bout u visit a library?huh

theres a reson dah islam is da fastest growing religion in da world

[wulfsragar]

i think DA islame is not the fastest growing since paganism is taking hold in the west pretty fast, you dont read that in libraries fool, but in newspapers since its pretty resent

[twity100]

its not about the growth rate ... its about if its true or not ...

[blackpotion666]

Again him. This is the worse ass ever.Just to give him a bit of sense to his shit your religion dude was the ast one create3d so you cant contradict the other ones. Your the new one on the list so you cant just say what you think about the others and make yourself superior this is all shit and once again you get the false information. Read damn it !!

[dhikrAllah]

Islam is beautiful.

[dhikrAllah]

Islam is amazing <3

[BolnoyBratchny]

@dhikrAllah

ly stupid 

[princeicio]

@dhikrAllah unfortunately people cannot understand that!

[distinctpain]

well if that's so.....how abt urself??

[hecticsam1386]

the best question i can ask myself about n e thing i need better understanding of is... "what would jesus p.b.u.h do or say if he was here rite now in any situation" would he the humble celebrate these innovative secular days or would he refrain us to stick to his teachings, the same with prophet muhammed p.b.u.h

[dovell138]

Janus had nothing to do with hypocrisy let alone christianity. He was for the romans the god of gates and doorways. He has two faces to be just and watchful. Ovid writes about Janus in the Fastii, and there Janus is represented as a guardian of the roads. If you are going to attck western culture at least learn your history before making assumptions as to the 'character' of a holiday's origins.

[mfaume46]

Problem with people who dislike what they hear is that they don't ask themselves why? Is it a lie or truth he doesn't like to hear. It often turns to be the later. You can know from their comments; they can't face the truth so they start arguments which are irrelevant to the subject matter. Most strange they can't engage themselves with other things because their conscious wouldn't let them because the truth though some time painful can never everted.

[sdarbro]

I have viewed all these HOLIDAY videos, and it has left me with the outstanding conclusion that Western society no longer affixes meaning to our traditions. We celebrate holidays without understanding them or their origins. We give ourselves names like Jason, David, Steve, etc that have no meaning. I believe, though, that for a secular nation to flow, this is how it must remain or else there will be inner strife from differing beliefs.

[sdarbro]

...because this is the cost of freedom. To remove the deep inner meaning is to free these holidays from their origins and make them accessible to all is the intent of Western holidays. Do not judge them by their origins, but rather by the present method of celebration:

[sdarbro]

NEW YEARS = celebrating a new beginning, Valentines = celebrating couples and emotions of love, Halloween = celebrating our fear of death/the unknown, Easter = EASTER should NOT be a secular holiday!

[CapnYousef]

This is but one video, check out the 25 minuter.

Its public information, it doesn't mean everyone knows it.
