Ask Baba Ali - "Escaping the Holiday Party"

@JustinahMuslimah

I will happy to debate about that :), coz is really big issue, i know many converted friends who has christian fanilies is really hard for those to be a good muslims and good for their parents :(

If u muslim and ur family is christian there is nothing wrong to spend time with them in this special time for them...in my family they dont drink, they dont go for christmas shopping feaver it is just time to spend time together....
about chrismas party it doesnt have anything to do with christmas is just another occasion to go out and drink whit workmates ...
about borrowing money for buying gift there is no obligation for anyone to buy gift , it is just sickness dont know where cum from???

where's my religeous card??lol

Lawl. your very amusing

LOL! XP "Silly Bob!"

lmao party hardy hello brother ali in islam

here's the thing with christmas: many non-religious people celebrate it secularly. however, christians still celebrate it because of jesus' birth. since you don't participate in christmas, you wouldn't know how christians across the world celebrate and rejoice during this time for religious reasons.

I want to know why there are two christmas celebration. some do it in January and some in March which one is the right one? here in Europe people do it this way. So when Jesus peace be up on him was born was it spring time or winter?why people have to borrow to money to buy gifts? and why help the poor and needy only once a year not all year round??why is the color of Christmas is red and green?? please let me know

reply to achekzai: The exact date of Jesus' birth is unknown, but it's is celebrated on Dec 25. People donate money all year round to charity! There are thousands of charities around the US etc w/ big donators, but some people donate more around this time of the year. I know that zakat is part of your religion.I live in a Muslim country and I've also noticed that especially during Ramadan or Eid people will give more money and be reminded about helping the needy.
green=life, red=jesus

Thanks dear for clearing it to me.But i still want to know if giving gift to family members or friends are also important to the extant that people have to borrow money to buy gifts?? or is it just a cultural event?? and why the color red = Jesus be peace up on him??
