is Celebrating Birthday Allowed in ISLAM?
what is the evidence on celebrating birthdays,is it allowed in islam?
The evidence in the Qur’aan and Sunnah indicates that celebrating birthdays is a kind of bid’ah or innovation in religion, which has no basis in the pure sharee’ah. It is not permitted to accept invitations to birthday celebrations, because this involves supporting and encouraging bid’ah. Allaah, may He be glorified and exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):
“Or have they partners with Allaah (false gods) who have instituted for them a religion which Allaah has not allowed…?” [al-Shoora 42:21]
“Then We have put you (O Muhammad) on a plain way of (Our) commandment. So follow that, and follow not the desires of those who know not. Verily, they can avail you nothing against Allaah (if He wants to puish you). Verily, the zaalimoon (wrongdoers) are awliyaa’ (protectors, helpers, etc.) to one another, but Allaah is the Wali (Protector, Helper) of the muttaqoon (pious).” [al-Jaathiyah 45:18-19]
“Follow what has been sent down unto you from your Lord, and follow not any awliyaa’ (protectors, helpers, etc.) besides Him. Little do you remember!” [al-A’raaf 7:3]
According to saheeh reports, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever does something that is a not part of this matter of ours (i.e., Islam) will have it rejected” (reported by Muslim in his Saheeh); and “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 most evil of things are those which have been newly invented (in religion), and every innovation is a going astray.” There are many other ahaadeeth that convey the same meaning.
Besides being bid’ah and having no basis in sharee’ah, these birthday celebrations also involve imitation of the Jews and Christians in their birthday celebrations. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, warning us against following their ways and traditions: “You would follow the ways of those who came before you step by step, to such an extent that if they were to enter a lizard’s hole, you would enter it too.” They said, “O Messenger of Allaah, (do you mean) the Jews and Christians?” He said, “Who else?” (Reported by al-Bukhaari and Muslim). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) also said: “Whoever imitates a people is one of them.”

so we shudnt celebrate because were following the kufaars?
but then thats like driving a car
The Prophet (pbuh) never drove a car... so does that mean we should all ride on Camals?
because Kufaars drive cars and we're adopting their mannerisms
how do you know that the ideology of brithdays wasnt brought about at the time?
just like the technology wasnt brought about at the time?

ALYSHA : the BIRTHDAY THING IS ABOUT BELIEF
DRIVING CARS, using TECHNOLGY N ALL ;;; WE ALL benefit from it.
at the end OF THE DAY ITS ONLY U N UR CONSCIENCE.
WE HAVE TO SEEK KNOWLEDGE WETHER WE FOLLOW IT OR NOT.
I PERSONNALY AINT GONA STOP U FROM DOING WHAT EVER YOU WANNA DO.
I AM NOT GONA DOUBT WHAT QURAN ND HADITHS SAY. RELIGION IS NOT WRONG,
its we people who DO not act upon em.
IF IT HARD TO FOLLOW EVERYTHING,ND NO ONE OF US DO FOLLOW WAT ISLM SAYS PROPERLY; all we can do is try n be Better Believers.
USE EVERYTHING, MAKE A GOOD USE OF WHAT ALLAH is proviDng you.
the KNOWLEDGE,the technology...EVERYTHING;

A look from you is as blinding as the sun As stunning as your eyes I lose myself in A look from you is as pure as the clear blue sky When I'm with you Every minute I'm not around you I feel like I left something behind. Every time I'm not looking at you I feel like I am blind ~
