SHOULD WE CELEBRATE EID MILAD UN NABI SAW? Answer by Dr.Zakir naik.

As we all know that our beloved
Prophet Muhammad PBUH was born
in Islamic month of Rabi Ul Awal.
Prophet Muhammad PBUH was sent
as a blessing for all mankind to show
right path to humanity for success in
this world and in hereafter. On 12th
date of Rabi Ul Awal many Muslims
specially in Subcontinent celebrates
Eid Milad Un Nabi as birthday of
Prophet Muhammad SAW.
The question is should we Celebrate
Eid Milad Un Nabi SAW? to know that
we will have to look back in the
history that whether Prophet SAW
himself celebrated his birthday? Or
His Companions celebrated his
birthday?? the answer is simply no.
Prophet SAW or his Sahaba never
celebrated their birthdays. There are
only two Eids in Islam according to
Quran and Sunnah that are Eid Ul
Adha and Eid Ul Fitr.
Eid Milad Un Nabi is a new invention
whose no reference is available in
Quran or Hadith. Prophet Muhammad
SAW has clearly prohibited to invent
any new thing in Islam and called it
bid’ah. Rasool Allah SAW said Every
innovation is a misguidance and
every misguidance goes to Hell fire.
The sad fact of today's Muslim
Ummah is that many of us has
started doing many new works in
name of Islam that are no where
present in Quran or Hadith but the
important things about which Quran
and Hadith have guided us again and
again are not followed by us.
