Can I Celebrate Mawlid (Milad un Nabi) ? By Bro. Abu Mussab Wajdi Akkari

Ruling on celebrating the birthday of the Prophet or Mawlid:
http://www.islamqa.com/en/ref/books/95

Read the saying of Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic:
"This day, I have perfected your religion for you, completed My Favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion"
Quran- [Surah Al-Ma'idah5:3]

Innovating is Haraam. Read the evidences below:

In Saheeh Muslim it is narrated that Jaabir (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to say in his khutbah on Friday: "The best of speech is the Book of Allaah and the best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). The worst of matters are those which are newly-invented, and every innovation is a going astray." Al-Nasaa'i added with a jayyid isnaad: "and every going astray will be in the Fire."

If every bid'ah is a going astray, how can some people then say that there is such a thing in Islam as "bid'ah hasanah"? By Allaah, this is an obvious contradiction of the statement and warning of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).
The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) stated that whoever innovates something new in the deen (religion) will have his deed rejected, and Allaah will not accept it, as is stated in the hadeeth narrated by 'Aa'ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her), who said: "The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: 'Whoever innovates something in this matter of ours that is not a part of it will have it rejected.'" (Reported by al-Bukhaari, Fath al-Baari, no. 2697). How can anybody then say that bid'ah is acceptable and it is permitted to follow it?

The Messenger of Allaah (salla'Allaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said : "Beware of the newly-invented matters, for every newly-invented matter is an innovation and every innovation is misguidance and every misguidance is in the Hellfire.

Narrated by Aisha
Allah's Apostle said, "If somebody innovates something which is not in harmony with the principles of our religion, that thing is rejected."
Bukhari [Volume 3, Book 49, Number 861]

In al-Sunan it is narrated that al-'Irbaad ibn Saariyah (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) delivered an eloquent speech to us which melted our hearts and caused our eyes to flow with tears. We said: O Messenger of Allaah, it is as if it is a farewell address, so advise us. He said: "I advise you to fear Allaah, and to listen and obey, even if a slave is appointed over you. Whoever among you lives will see many differences, so I urge you to adhere to my Sunnah and the way of the rightly-guided caliphs who will come after me, and cling firmly to it. Beware of newly-invented matters, for every newly-invented matter is an innovation and every innovation is a going astray. And there are many ahaadeeth with a similar meaning.

[MusaMashkur]

Is this bro salafi?

[nkxbox]

@MusaMashkur , This brother Abu Mussab (May Allah reward him) He strives to act upon the teachings of Islaam and share them with others among the Muslims and the non-Muslims. He strives to live up to and propagate the Qur'aan and the Sunnah according to the understanding of the Salaf (righteous predecessors).

Not Salafi as in calling to Sect, but following the W-A-Y of Salaf (righteous predecessors)
