If prophet Adam's (AS) creation is worth celebrating (Jum'at prayer) even though he didn't celebrated it.

If prophet ibrahim (AS) and prophet isma'eel (AS) mercy and freedom granted to them by Allah (SWT) worth celebration (eidl kabeer)

If the birth of prophet Isma'eel (AS) worth celebration (Saffa and Marwa).

If the perishing of firaun and salvage of prophet musa (AS) is worth celebration (Ashura and Tashura) despite the fact that non of them celebrated it all.

Then what will stop the celebration of the physical emergence of the leader of all of them, I mean prophet Muhammad (SAW)? Even if you think he didn't celebrated it.

REASONS WHY WE SHOULD CELEBRATE MOULUD.
.
All Praises is due to Almighty Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, Peace and Blessings be upon the most perfect of creations, His Beloved Habeeb, Sayyiduna Wa Maulana Rasoolullah Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam his Noble Family and the Illustrious Sahaba Ridwanullahi Ta'ala Alaihim Ajma'een and all the pious servants of Almighty Allah.
.
In present era we are suffering from some self-aclaimed scholars who imposes verdicts of Shirk and Bid’ah on those who celebrate Moulid an-Nabiy Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam with great enthusiasm and integrity and due to which the simple and straightforward people who are less in knowledge of Qur’an and Hadith get nervous whether they are following the Truth or not.
.
Here are some ample reason why we should celebrate our beloved Rasulullah Sallallahu alaihi wasallam.

ﻗَﺎﻝَ ﻋِﻴﺴَﻰ ﺍﺑْﻦُ ﻣَﺮْﻳَﻢَ ﺍﻟﻠَّﻬُﻢَّ ﺭَﺑَّﻨَﺎ ﺃَﻧﺰِﻝْ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻨَﺎ ﻣَﺂﺋِﺪَﺓً ﻣِّﻦَ ﺍﻟﺴَّﻤَﺎﺀِ ﺗَﻜُﻮﻥُ ﻟَﻨَﺎ ﻋِﻴﺪﺍً ﻷَﻭَّﻟِﻨَﺎ ﻭَﺁﺧِﺮِﻧَﺎ ﻭَﺁﻳَﺔً ﻣِّﻨﻚَ ﻭَﺍﺭْﺯُﻗْﻨَﺎ ﻭَﺃَﻧﺖَ ﺧَﻴْﺮُ ﺍﻟﺮَّﺍﺯِﻗِﻴﻦَ
Isah the son of Maryam, said, “O Allah, O our Lord! Send down to us a table spread from heaven, so that it may become a day of celebration for us – for our former and latter people - and a sign from You; and give us sustenance - and You are the Best Provider Of Sustenance.”
[Surah Al-Ma’idah, Verse 114]
.
The day when food is sent from skies is day of rejoicing (EID); then the day when soul of universe Peace be with him was born must be the delight for the day of rejoicing.
Look what Allah has said:
ﻭَﺃَﻣَّﺎ ﺑِﻨِﻌْﻤَﺔِ ﺭَﺑِّﻚَ ﻓَﺤَﺪِّﺙْ
And abundantly proclaim the favours of your Lord. [Surah Al-Duha, Verse 11]

.
What is the great favors Allah has bestowed on us that is worth celebrating?
Let's see some verses from the Qur'an.
.
ﻟَﻘَﺪْ ﻣَﻦَّ ﺍﻟﻠﻪُ ﻋَﻠَﻰ ﺍﻟْﻤُﺆﻣِﻨِﻴﻦَ ﺇِﺫْ ﺑَﻌَﺚَ ﻓِﻴﻬِﻢْ ﺭَﺳُﻮﻻً ﻣِّﻦْ ﺃَﻧﻔُﺴِﻬِﻢْ ﻳَﺘْﻠُﻮﺍْ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻬِﻢْ ﺁﻳَﺎﺗِﻪِ ﻭَﻳُﺰَﻛِّﻴﻬِﻢْ ﻭَﻳُﻌَﻠِّﻤُﻬُﻢُ ﺍﻟْﻜِﺘَﺎﺏَ ﻭَﺍﻟْﺤِﻜْﻤَﺔَ ﻭَﺇِﻥ ﻛَﺎﻧُﻮﺍْ ﻣِﻦ ﻗَﺒْﻞُ ﻟَﻔِﻲ ﺿَﻼﻝٍ ﻣُّﺒِﻴﻦٍ
Allah has indeed bestowed a great favour upon the Muslims, in that He sent to them a Noble Messenger (Prophet Mohammed - peace and blessings be upon him) from among them, who recites to them His verses, and purifies them, and teaches them the Book and wisdom; and before it, they were definitely in open error. [Surah Al-Imran, Verse 164]
.
ﻳَﺎ ﺃَﻳُّﻬَﺎ ﺍﻟﻨَّﺎﺱُ ﻗَﺪْ ﺟَﺎﺀَﺗْﻜُﻢ ﻣَّﻮْﻋِﻈَﺔٌ ﻣِّﻦ ﺭَّﺑِّﻜُﻢْ ﻭَﺷِﻔَﺎﺀٌ ﻟِّﻤَﺎ ﻓِﻲ ﺍﻟﺼُّﺪُﻭﺭِ ﻭَﻫُﺪًﻯ ﻭَﺭَﺣْﻤَﺔٌ ﻟِّﻠْﻤُﺆْﻣِﻨِﻴﻦَ

O mankind! The advice has come to you from your Lord and a cure for the hearts - and guidance and mercy for believers. Say, “Upon Allah’s munificence and upon His mercy - upon these should the people rejoice”; that is better than all their wealth and possessions. [Surah Al-Yunus, Verse 57/58]
.
ﻟَﻘَﺪْ ﺟَﺎﺀَﻛُﻢْ ﺭَﺳُﻮﻝٌ ﻣِّﻦْ ﺃَﻧﻔُﺴِﻜُﻢْ ﻋَﺰِﻳﺰٌ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻪِ ﻣَﺎ ﻋَﻨِﺘُّﻢْ ﺣَﺮِﻳﺺٌ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻜُﻢ ﺑِﺎﻟْﻤُﺆْﻣِﻨِﻴﻦَ ﺭَﺅُﻭﻑٌ ﺭَّﺣِﻴﻢٌ
Indeed there has come to you a Noble Messenger from among you - your falling into hardship aggrieves him, most concerned for your well being, for the Muslims most compassionate, most merciful. [Surah Tauba, Verse 128]
.
And this is what we do, we celebrate; we rejoice; we do spend our money to show gratitude to Allah Almighty on his greatest mercy and Blessing i.e. celebrations of Moulud Nabiy because Qur’an Says:
ﻭَﻣَﺎ ﺃَﺭْﺳَﻠْﻨَﺎﻙَ ﺇِﻻ ﺭَﺣْﻤَﺔً ﻟِّﻠْﻌَﺎﻟَﻤِﻴﻦَ
And We did not send you (O dear Prophet Muhammad "SAW" except as a mercy for the entire world. [Surah Al-Anbiya, Verse 107]
.
.
Our Beloved Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam himself commemorated about his birth in numerous Ahadith. But I will only present few of them here.
.
Let us have the opinions of Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) who himself celebrated his Birthday.
.
ﻋَﻦْ ﺃَﺑِﻰ ﻗَﺘَﺎﺩَﺓَ ﺍﻷَﻧْﺼَﺎﺭِﻯِّ ﺭﺿﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻨﻪ ﺃَﻥَّ ﺭَﺳُﻮﻝَ ﺍﻟﻠﻪِ - ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ - ﺳُﺌِﻞَ ﻋَﻦْ ﺻَﻮْﻡِ ﺍﻻِﺛْﻨَﻴْﻦِ ﻓَﻘَﺎﻝَ ‏« ﻓِﻴﻪِ ﻭُﻟِﺪْﺕُ ﻭَﻓِﻴﻪِ ﺃُﻧْﺰِﻝَ ﻋَﻠَﻰَّ
Abi Qatada (Radiyallahu anhu) reported that Allah's Messenger (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) was asked about fasting on Monday, whereupon he said: It is (the day) when I was born and revelation was sent down to me.
Ref. Sahih Muslim, Book on Fasting, Page 323, Hadith 2807
.
When beloved Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) is celebrating his birthday not yearly but every Monday then how it can be labeled as Shirk or Bid’ah?
.

“I was a Noor (Light) between the hand of my creator 14000 years before the creation of Adam (Alaihis Salaam)"
Reference:
5. Tafseer Ruhul Bayan, Page 370, Vol. 2
With the above hadith, I said some time ago on my FB wall that without the birth of prophet there is no Islam.
.
ﻟَﻤَّﺎ ﻣَﺎﺕَ ﺃَﺑُﻮ ﻟَﻬَﺐ ﺭَﺃَﻳْﺘﻪ ﻓِﻲ ﻣَﻨَﺎﻣِﻲ ﺑَﻌْﺪ ﺣَﻮْﻝ ﻓِﻲ ﺷَﺮّ ﺣَﺎﻝ ﻓَﻘَﺎﻝَ : ﻣَﺎ ﻟَﻘِﻴﺖ ﺑَﻌْﺪﻛُﻢْ ﺭَﺍﺣَﺔ ، ﺇِﻟَّﺎ ﺃَﻥَّ ﺍﻟْﻌَﺬَﺍﺏ ﻳُﺨَﻔَّﻒ ﻋَﻨِّﻲ ﻛُﻞّ ﻳَﻮْﻡ ﺍِﺛْﻨَﻴْﻦِ ، ﻗَﺎﻝَ : ﻭَﺫَﻟِﻚَ ﺃَﻥَّ ﺍﻟﻨَّﺒِﻲّ ﺻَﻠَّﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻪِ ﻭَﺳَﻠَّﻢَ ﻭُﻟِﺪَ ﻳَﻮْﻡ ﺍﻟِﺎﺛْﻨَﻴْﻦِ ، ﻭَﻛَﺎﻧَﺖْ ﺛُﻮَﻳْﺒَﺔ ﺑَﺸَّﺮَﺕْ ﺃَﺑَﺎ ﻟَﻬَﺐ ﺑِﻤَﻮْﻟِﺪِﻩِ ﻓَﺄَﻋْﺘَﻘَﻬَﺎ
After his death, people of Abu Lahab's household saw him in a dream, and asked him how he had fared. To this, Abu Lahab said that after departing from them he did not meet with any good but was being given water every Monday from the finger with which he had indicated the emancipation of Suwaibah, and this water lessened his torment.
References:
1. Sahih Bukhari, Vol. 1, Page 153, Hadith No 5101, Kitubun Nikaah
2. Fathul Baari Sharhi Sahih al-Bukhari, Vol. 9, Page 118 by Imam Ibn Hajr Asqalani.
5. Umdat al-Qari Sharhi Sahih al-Bukhari by Badruddin Aini, Vol. 2, Page 95.
The reason I cited different source on this hadith is that, the Wahabi/Salafis blatantly denounced the hadith saying its weak hadith. Due to their hatred and low knowledge on hadith.
.
The event, which Imaam Qastalaani has referred to, is this. When a maid of Abu Lahab named Suwaibah informed him of a son being born to his brother Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him), he (Abu Lahab) was so delighted at herring this that he pointed his finger to her in a manner which signified her emancipation for carrying the good news to him But when the holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam) declared his Prophet hood, he (Abu Lahab) did not accept him as a Prophet but became a most severe enemy to him and remained so all his life. In condemnation of him a whole Surah of the Holy Qur’an descended, but just a moment of happiness on the birth of Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wasallam he was emancipated every Monday.

May we be sacrificed at this Merriment Of blessed upcoming month of Rabul Awwal!!

And We did not send you (O dear Prophet Muhammad "SAW" except as a mercy for the entire world. [Surah Al-Anbiya, Verse 107]
.
.
Our Beloved Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam himself commemorated about his birth in numerous Ahadith. But I will only present few of them here.
.
Let us have the opinions of Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) who himself celebrated his Birthday.
.
ﻋَﻦْ ﺃَﺑِﻰ ﻗَﺘَﺎﺩَﺓَ ﺍﻷَﻧْﺼَﺎﺭِﻯِّ ﺭﺿﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻨﻪ ﺃَﻥَّ ﺭَﺳُﻮﻝَ ﺍﻟﻠﻪِ - ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ - ﺳُﺌِﻞَ ﻋَﻦْ ﺻَﻮْﻡِ ﺍﻻِﺛْﻨَﻴْﻦِ ﻓَﻘَﺎﻝَ ‏« ﻓِﻴﻪِ ﻭُﻟِﺪْﺕُ ﻭَﻓِﻴﻪِ ﺃُﻧْﺰِﻝَ ﻋَﻠَﻰَّ
Abi Qatada (Radiyallahu anhu) reported that Allah's Messenger (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) was asked about fasting on Monday, whereupon he said: It is (the day) when I was born and revelation was sent down to me.
Ref. Sahih Muslim, Book on Fasting, Page 323, Hadith 2807
.
When beloved Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) is celebrating his birthday not yearly but every Monday then how it can be labeled as Shirk or Bid’ah?

“I was a Noor (Light) between the hand of my creator 14000 years before the creation of Adam (Alaihis Salaam)"

With the above hadith, I said some time ago on my FB wall that without the birth of prophet there is no Islam.
.
ﻟَﻤَّﺎ ﻣَﺎﺕَ ﺃَﺑُﻮ ﻟَﻬَﺐ ﺭَﺃَﻳْﺘﻪ ﻓِﻲ ﻣَﻨَﺎﻣِﻲ ﺑَﻌْﺪ ﺣَﻮْﻝ ﻓِﻲ ﺷَﺮّ ﺣَﺎﻝ ﻓَﻘَﺎﻝَ : ﻣَﺎ ﻟَﻘِﻴﺖ ﺑَﻌْﺪﻛُﻢْ ﺭَﺍﺣَﺔ ، ﺇِﻟَّﺎ ﺃَﻥَّ ﺍﻟْﻌَﺬَﺍﺏ ﻳُﺨَﻔَّﻒ ﻋَﻨِّﻲ ﻛُﻞّ ﻳَﻮْﻡ ﺍِﺛْﻨَﻴْﻦِ ، ﻗَﺎﻝَ : ﻭَﺫَﻟِﻚَ ﺃَﻥَّ ﺍﻟﻨَّﺒِﻲّ ﺻَﻠَّﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻪِ ﻭَﺳَﻠَّﻢَ ﻭُﻟِﺪَ ﻳَﻮْﻡ ﺍﻟِﺎﺛْﻨَﻴْﻦِ ، ﻭَﻛَﺎﻧَﺖْ ﺛُﻮَﻳْﺒَﺔ ﺑَﺸَّﺮَﺕْ ﺃَﺑَﺎ ﻟَﻬَﺐ ﺑِﻤَﻮْﻟِﺪِﻩِ ﻓَﺄَﻋْﺘَﻘَﻬَﺎ
After his death, people of Abu Lahab's household saw him in a dream, and asked him how he had fared. To this, Abu Lahab said that after departing from them he did not meet with any good but was being given water every Monday from the finger with which he had indicated the emancipation of Suwaibah, and this water lessened his torment.

The reason I cited different source on this hadith is that, the Wahabi/Salafis blatantly denounced the hadith saying its weak hadith. Due to their hatred and low knowledge on hadith.
.
The event, which Imaam Qastalaani has referred to, is this. When a maid of Abu Lahab named Suwaibah informed him of a son being born to his brother Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him), he (Abu Lahab) was so delighted at herring this that he pointed his finger to her in a manner which signified her emancipation for carrying the good news to him But when the holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam) declared his Prophet hood, he (Abu Lahab) did not accept him as a Prophet but became a most severe enemy to him and remained so all his life. In condemnation of him a whole Surah of the Holy Qur’an descended, but just a moment of happiness on the birth of Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wasallam he was emancipated every Monday.

The last two Aare, Akintola and Abiola were politicians, Tinubu was also offered the post but he declined.

Who told you he was denied it, rather say he rejected it.... Do u know the burden behind the generalissmo.... Hmmmmm

IamaNigerianGuy:
Something tells me the Jagabans hand is in this, methinks he needs a generalisimo in view of the coming battles ahead.
Most yoruba men who know 'whats-up' usually avoid that title seeing the fate that befalls it's recipients. Since MKO died, only Obasanjo has actively sought that laurel and it was denied him for political reasons.
Can Gani Adams bear its weight ?

SwiftKey forever
