During this event, the Muslims come together, recite Qur’an, praise the Prophet, speak about the honorable life of the Prophet and his attributes, learn about Islam, and serve food. محمّد، حبك يجمعنا Muhammad, your Love brings us together alsunna.org

  3. Judging the MawlidThe activities of the Mawlid, as mentioned, are lawful in Islam. Muslims are rewarded for doing the Mawlid.

  4. History of Mawlid: The king of Irbil, Abu Sa`eed alMuzaffar bin Baktakeen Kawkabriyy, initiated the Mawlid in the 7th hijriy century and was the first person to do so. He was a pious, brave, just, generous, knowledgeable ruler & defender of Islam. He invited many Muslims including the scholars of:1. Hadeeth, 2. Tafseer, 3. Fiqh and 4. Sincere true Sufis and celebrated the Mawlid.   محمّد، حبك يجمعنا Muhammad, your Love brings us together alsunna.org

  5. What did great Scholars Say?The scholar of Fiqh, Abul Khattab Ibn Dihyah, wrote a book praising doing the Mawlid and gave it to the king especially to be read during the Mawlid celebration. The doing of the Mawlid became known to the scholars in the east and west, who accepted it and pointed to the Islamic proofs which confirmed its validity. محمّد، حبك يجمعنا Muhammad, your Love brings us together alsunna.org

  7. Proofs of the Scholars on MawlidThe Prophet recognized Monday and praised fasting it, because he was born and received revelation on that day. He said:)ذاك يومٌ أُنْزِلَ علىَّ ويومٌ ولِدتُ فيه(“This is the day of my birth”.(Muslim) محمّد، حبك يجمعنا Muhammad, your Love brings us together alsunna.org

  8. Why Specify a Day to Celebrate?Prophet Muhammad fasted the 10th of Muharram after he emigrated to Madinah. He found that the Jews commemorate every year the day Allah saved Prophet Moosa and his followers from Pharaoh. It was revealed to the Prophet what the Jews said was true, so the Prophet نحنُ أَوْلى بموسىtold them, as alBukhariyy narrated: That is, "We are more deserving of Moosa than you" and the Prophet ordered the Muslims to fast specifically the 9th and 10th of Muharram as optional days. محمّد، حبك يجمعنا Muhammad, your Love brings us together alsunna.org

  9. Did the Prophet celebrate the Mawlid.The Mawlid did not occur during the time of the Prophet, peace on him, but the Prophet did not say that the Mawlid is unlawful. According to the laws of Islam, it is something innovated. Moreover, the Mawlid is a good innovation. محمّد، حبك يجمعنا Muhammad, your Love brings us together alsunna.org

  10. What is an Innovation (Bid^ah)?An innovation is something new that did not occur previous to the advent of the innovation.Ahlussunnah agreed that some innovations are lawful (good) and some of them are unlawful (bad). They agreed that not every innovation is unlawful, as Shafi^iy, Nawawiy & Ibn Hajar said. محمّد، حبك يجمعنا Muhammad, your Love brings us together alsunna.org

  11. Allah praised the good innovation in surat alHadeed 27:وَجَعَلْنَا فِي قُلُوبِ الَّذِينَاتَّبَعُوهُ رَأْفَةً وَرَحْمَةً وَرَهْبَانِيَّةًابْتَدَعُوهَا مَا كَتَبْنَاهَا عَلَيْهِمْ إِلاَّ ابْتِغَاء رِضْوَانِ اللهِal-Qur’an praised the Muslim followers of Prophet `Isa who had innovated Rahbaneeyyatan Ibtada^ooha, which Allah did not make it incumbent on them. Nevertheless, they did it to acquire Allah’s blessings. Rahbaneeyyah is to abstain from fulfilling one’s desires including marriage.  Those followers built simple houses from clay away from the people and devoted themselves to worshipping Allah.. محمّد، حبك يجمعنا Muhammad, your Love brings us together alsunna.org

  12. Good and Bad innovations:The Prophet distinguished between the good and the bad innovation. He said, as narrated by Muslim:من سنّ في الإسلام سنّةً حسنة فله أجرها وأجر من عمل بها بعده من غير أن ينقص منأجورهم شىء، ومن سنّ في الإسلام سنّة سيئة كان عليه وزرها ووزر من عمل بها منبعده من غير أن ينقص من أوزارهم شىء. محمّد، حبك يجمعنا Muhammad, your Love brings us together alsunna.org

  13. This hadith means that:“the one who innovates a good innovation acquires its reward and the reward similar to the rewards of those who follow him, but their rewards are not diminished. And the one who innovates a bad innovation acquires its sin and the sin similar to the sins of those who follow him, but their sins are not diminished” محمّد، حبك يجمعنا Muhammad, your Love brings us together alsunna.org

  14. Mawlid is Praising Allah & His ProphetAll honest Muslims are thankful to Allah for the blessings of Islam and for being among the followers of Muhammad. In Surat Al ^Imran, Ayah 31, Allah said:(قُلْ إنْ كُنتُم تُحِبّون اللهَ فاتبعونىِ يُحببكُمُ الله)which means [If you love Allah, then follow the Prophet, and Allah will accept and reward you.] It is fitting to honor the Prophet. The Mawlid (the celebration of his birth) has a great benefit: it inspires the heart to have a more profound love for the Prophet. محمّد، حبك يجمعنا Muhammad, your Love brings us together alsunna.org

  15. Follow the Scholars of Islamand the Millions of MuslimsCelebrate His Birth, and Thank Allah for sending us Prophet Muhammad as a mercy and a blessing. محمّد، حبك يجمعنا Muhammad, your Love brings us together alsunna.org
