Any Christian celebrating this is an hypocrite and those muslims over there are also hypocrite(believing in something and manifesting something different). None of them(Muslim in there) believe Jesus is God or son of God and infact there are plethora of verses in the Qur'an that specifically talks about that.

We might not celebrate each other on our festive period while still having healthy relationship and that's TOLERANCE - Understanding each others religious injunctions and respecting it.

We only do this when it's Christian-Muslim stuff but not on traditional religion practionner. Who among you christians will say KUMUYI, OYEDEPO OR OYAKILHOME is TOLERANT if they attend shrine to felicitate with the SANGO worshippers?

And lastly, islam and Christianity ain't the same, they attacks each other basic doctrine so there's no different in it with the above analogy.

Did Muhammad celebrate his birthday every year on the twelfth day of the month of Rabiulawal?

Did he command you to celebrate his birthday on that day?

Does saying I was born on a Monday mean celebrate my birthday yearly on a date you can pick for yourself?
@bold is "Fi'il Amar" you used. Our prophet did not use command. If he did it means the practice is fard (obligatory). But in this case he did not which means it is optional as long as the practice is within the confine of Islam. Hence, it is voluntary act.

If Qur'an and prophet muhammad are silent on issue it means it is blessing for muslims



Abu Darda reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “What Allah has made lawful in his book is lawful, and what he has made unlawful is unlawful. Whatever he has remained silent upon, it is for your benefit, so accept benefit from Allah. Verily, Allah is not forgetful.” Then the Prophet recited the verse, “Your Lord is not forgetful.” (19:64)

Source: Sunan al-Dāraquṭnī 1821

So Qur'an is silent on whether every year, every week or every month. So it is a blessing for us. And on mawlud nabi, they send lots of blessings on the prophet as Qur'an rightly said to honor him.


"....Oh you who believe! Send blessings on him(prophet), and salute him with all respect. Quran



In short, Maulid nabiyy is an innovation (Bida'ah),
Good. You said "innovation". In that case this is a good innovation but I proved Xmas or Christmas to be idolatry. See big difference?.



Jareer ibn 'Abdullaah al-Bajali (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: "The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: 'Whoever starts a good thing and is followed by others, will have his own reward and a reward equal to that of those who follow him, without it detracting from their reward in any way. Whoever starts a bad thing and is followed by others, will bear the burden of his own sin and a burden equal to that of those who follow him, without it detracting from their burden in any way.'"

Sir Empi.ree, what's your comment on this?
walaikun salaam

I believe they have came across several Muslims online or offline who might have warned against it. In that case, this will be hujjah against them on Qiyyama if they persist.

It is always Muslims that like to show they are "tolerant" but this is not tolerant but compromise. Some Christians and pastors regard Xmas as idolatry and they don't celebrate it. Why would Muslims take it upon themselves to celebrate is anyways?.


"The Prophet (saas) said, "Surely you will follow the ways, of those nations who were before you, span by span and cubit by cubit (i.e. inch by inch) so much so that even if they entered a hole of a lizard, you too would follow them," We said, "O Allah's Messenger!

your fellow Christians would see you very different. So you mean Jesus created the world, angels, jinn, mankind and everything else right?. Do you have proof of this in your Bible? grin

Wetin we no go see from christians cheesy


This is what Jesus said but you said Jesus created all other creations.


"I can do nothing on my own...." John 5:30





Our Bible also refers to angels and believers in Christ as sons of God.
you need to tell this to your fellow Christians. They said Jesus is the only son



... and whoever believe in Him, He (The Father) gave the power to become the sons of God.

Like Jesus, I am a son of God.

Our Bible also says God begets us through Jesus.


Jesus is the second person in the godhead. This is established in my religion.
so you believe in trinity. You don't even provide evidence. You just talk anyhow. But there are verses in your Bible that go against what you just said


I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour. Isaiah 43:11


I am the LORD, and there is no other; apart from me there is no God. I will strengthen you, though you have not acknowledged me. Isaiah 45:5




Our Bible says that Jesus is the EXPRESS image of the father. So they are one.
you just contradicted yourself, your previous post. You sound like you don't understand yourself at all. I invite you to please come to Islam so we can explain to you what you do not understand. And stop allowing bigots to confuse you.



To do what?

You mean I should convert to a religion that claims my Bible is corrupted without providing any proof
are you not seeing your confusion yet?. You are confused because your Bible created the confusion. Now after I quoted Bible you ran back to say Jesus and father are one but you denied it before. You also said Jesus is not begotten son. Now you denied it after I quoted you Bible. You are confused, buddy.



No christian even believe that talk more of many. We believe that there are other heavily beings aside the Father and Jesus
what are those heavenly beings?

Yes, Jesus is GOD not by His own making but because it pleases the Father to CREATE Him as one.

The problem with moslems is their VERY POOR understanding of the Bible. Imagine the rubbish you wrote there and claim you have better understanding of Christianity. I would have responded to it one-by-one but it's too long.
Let's see who is confused cheesy





Do you realize what you said below go against any christian doctrines and the bible?.

3. God adopted Jesus as His son and heir. Jesus was not begotten. Every Christian today is a son or daughter of God. He didn't beget any.
This is christian famous quote and you denied it. grin

John 3:16

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."


4. JESUS worships HIS FATHER because he is not equal with HIM.
It seems your type of christian is different from your brothers like true2god and malvigzguys2012 and majority of christians. They have claimed many times that Jesus and father are equal.

I and the Father are one." john 10:30 grin cheesy



5. Jesus has a beginning because He was created by One who has no beginning but He was in the beginning.
Brother, I invite you to islam please. Your belief is getting to close Islam than majority of the christians and christianity. Now I am not gonna be harsh with you. I think that you are genuinely ignorant of islam and christianity unlike your fellow christians.


6. Apart from the Father and Jesus, there are other heavenly beings and they are also known as sons of God. Jesus sits on the right side of HIS FATHER because He is the heir.
Again, this is contrary to the belief of many christians. They believe it is only Jesus and the Father and at the same time they believe Jesus is God. It seems you are getting out of fabricated doctrines they cooked up for you guys.

Not every Christian celebrates Christmas. It's never an obligation and Christian doctrine. Jesus celebrates his death and there is nothing wrong with His followers coming together to celebrate His death. BTW birth is more important than death.

I don't believe those hadith. It could easily be manipulated. If it is not in the Koran forget it. I believe the word of a supposed God should be complete without relying on the words of men. I'll only believe the hadith if you agree today that the koran is incomplete and God needs the help of men to make his words meaningful to humans.

You confused?. You, I mean you personally, are you celebrating birth of Jesus or his death?. You sound very confused.


We don't celebrate the birth of God. A God cannot be born. We celebrate the birth of Jesus - a human. He wasn't a God while on earth. He shed His divinity and took up the form of man to save humans from the bondage of sin.

That means you should be celebrating Muhammad's birthday every Monday and not every year since you don't know the exact day he was born.
No. It means:

* it is optional for those who wish to fast on Mondays

* It means prophet muhammad SAW recognized his birthday when he said "this is the day I was born". Hence, there is nothing wrong to recognize this every year in addition to weekly fasting.

What is needed to prove here is his birthday was recognized by him, period. And besides this, Qur'an itself recommended honoring the prophet


"In order that you (O mankind) may believe in Allah and His Messenger (SAW), and that you assist and honour him (SAW), and (that you) glorify (Allah's) praises" 48:9




And if your analogy is right, that means their shouldn't be at Division among Muslims about Maulid nabiyy, that means everyone should be okay with it, but that's not the case.
mawlud nabi is mustahab or nafla. It is not wajib. It is not like Eld Adha, Eld Fitr or Eld Jummah. These three I mentioned are mandatory acts of worship and unanimously agreed upon. Any Muslim who reject these three is not a Muslim.




Finally, Jesus Christ is the world of God through which everything was created, he is the owner days, time and moment. We can choose to celebrate his birth any day we choose and demons and Satan will continue to be pained.
in anther word, pastor kumuyi, Jehovah witness, pastor Chris Pifer Seven Days Adventists etc are demons.

Religious Society of Friends

There is a religious group called the Religious Society of Friends, also known as Quakers.

This church believes that “every day is a holy day,” so there is no need to single out just one day to celebrate.

Another reason why they do not celebrate Christmas is that some Quakers are trying to go back to the ways of early Christianity.

God’s Kingdom Society (GKS)


This is another church that is anti-Christmas. According to the church’s official website, they believe that there is no single evidence in the Bible that Jesus Christ was born on the 25th of December.

Rather, they believe that He was born in October and that Christmas originated from “a noisy pagan festival in honour of the god of the sun”.


While other Christians celebrate Christmas in December, this church celebrates the birth anniversary of Jesus Christ in October. This is done with something called the Freedom Day.

These religious denominations are opposed to the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ on December 25 every year. Here are the denominations that don't celebrate Christmas and why they avoid it.



Seventh Day Adventist Church

Like Jehovah’s Witnesses, this church is also against the celebration of Christmas.

A publication from the group that goes to church on Saturdays, the Jewish Sabbath day, not Sunday reads: “We do not celebrate Christmas as the Birth of Christ per say since Christ was not born in Dec. He did not want us to celebrate His birth or He would have told us when He was born. It has become a money-making celebration with Christ mixed in. It is a pagan ritual."

“We join in to be with the Family or friends to celebrate their friendship and love as a family gathering and for the Children. Easter too is a pagan holiday and we do not celebrate the Name but we honour Christ’s Resurrection and keep the day in mind on what He has done for us. We do not make an issue out of it but quietly honour Christ….it’s a gathering also for the Children. It is a personal Choice.”

I am lost at words here.

Moslems celebrate Maulud but says we shouldn't celebrate Christmas.

What is the difference between Mohammed's birthday and Jesus' birthday?

The exact born date for each is unknown but adherents of both religion celebrate them.

Why should Moslems celebrate their messiah's birthday and Christians shouldn't celebrate theirs?
Simple.

When it comes to mawlud and Xmas there is a huge difference. However not all Muslims celebrate mawlid. That's up to individual prerogative.

Mawlid was marked by the prophet muhammad (SAW) with fasting. The Prophet (saw) was asked about the voluntary fasting on Mondays, and he replied saying,

“On that day I was born, and on it the Revelation came to me.”

~Sahih Muslim

So the point is, he recognized the day he was born and marked it.

* On the contrary, Jesus did not mark his birthday. There is no record.


* Second, Muslims believe prophet muhammad SAW is human being.

* On the other hand, christian believe Jesus is God. Implication is, Christians celebrate birth of their God.


* Third, it is widely recorded that a devil(Mithra)was born on December 25th and this day is fixed. On the contrary, Muslims follow lunar calendar which rotates every year. It is well known that prophet muhammad SAW was born in Rabiu Awwal but there is no record of Jesus born on December 25th.


The worst is Xmas itself is paganism. I will return with details soon with proofs from your pastors and records.There is no correlation between mawlid nabi Muhammad and Xmas.

If you claim that the original gospel is lost, that means Allah failed in his assignment to keep it safe, Allah failed to protect what he claimed he revealed. Allah failed in his mission.

Allah claimed that the Quran was to confirm the books before it, and yet Allah couldn't protect the books Qur'an came to confirm from being lost. Does that make sense to you?



قُلْ مَنْ كَانَ عَدُوًّا لِّجِبْرِيلَ فَإِنَّهُۥ نَزَّلَهُۥ عَلٰى قَلْبِكَ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ مُصَدِّقًا لِّمَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَهُدًى وَبُشْرٰى لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ
"Say, Whoever is an enemy to Gabriel - it is [none but] he who has brought the Qur'an down upon your heart, [O Muhammad], by permission of Allah, confirming that which was before it and as guidance and good tidings for the believers."
(QS. Al-Baqara 2: Verse 97)
you can twist all you want. Jesus message is not lost. Qur'an protects message of Jesus. Quran encompasses the message of earlier revelations (Sura 5:48). So, the truth of earlier revelations is now contained in the Quran.


If you want to know Jesus you must come to Qur'an. But staining how injil revealed to Jesus, injil of Jesus was never written down. Anytime revelation came to Jesus, Jesus read it to his people and afterwards, the message is gone. There was no written evidence of injil. Bible is story book about Jesus. So when Qur'an says "Book", it was not always referring to physical attribute. Kindly prove to us that Jesus Christ witnessed documented injil the same way Qur'an was written down in the lifetime of our prophet and where Jesus reviewed injil with his disciples before he left this planet the same way our prophet reviewed Qur'an several times before he passed?



Where is the Quran according to Muhammad, the one we have today is according to Ibn Mujahid and the one that preceded that was according to Zaid bin Thabit and Uthman
grin cheesy grin prophet muhammad SAW was not the author of Qur'an. Qur'an was revealed by Allah and it can not be reproduced by anybody.


"Verily, We, it is We Who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e. the Quraan) and surely, We will guard it (from corruption)”

[al-Hijr 15:9 interpretation of the meaning]



"Ask ˹them, O Prophet˺, “Who is the best witness?” Say, “Allah is! He is a Witness between me and you. And this Quran has been revealed to me so that, with it, I may warn you and whoever it reaches. Do you ˹pagans˺ testify that there are other gods besides Allah?” ˹Then˺ say, “I will never testify ˹to this˺!” ˹And˺ say, “There is only One God. And I totally reject whatever ˹idols˺ you associate with Him.” Q6:19




"And if you (Arab pagans, Jews, and Christians) are in doubt concerning that which We have sent down (i.e. the Quran) to Our slave (Muhammad Peace be upon him ), then produce a Surah (chapter) of the like thereof and call your witnesses (supporters and helpers) besides Allah, if you are truthful." Q2:23








In other words, Allah needed humans to create diacritical marks in order for the Quran to be understandable and those humans had to re write the Quran to insert their marks and inputs there and they did that years after Muhammad the supposed original recipient of the Quran had died?

Muhammad was sent to his people in his language, and not in other language. Hence Muhammad was not sent to the world

Muhammad was sent to the people of Meccan and Arab peninsula:

"And thus We have revealed to you an Arabic Qur'an that you may warn the Mother of Cities [Makkah] and those around it and warn of the Day of Assembly, about which there is no doubt. A party will be in Paradise and a party in the Blaze."

Jesus spoke different languages, and even read the Hebrew scriptures even though he never went to school. Gospel means good news and not book. The good news that Jesus preached was written down Greek so that both the Jews and the non Jews could read and be saved.

And We have sent you (O Muhammad SAW) not but as a mercy for the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists). 21:107



"And We have not sent you (O Muhammad SAW) except as a giver of glad tidings and a warner to all mankind, but most of men know not." 34:28








The old testament is in Hebrews while the new testament is in Greek
what was the language of Jesus?. Did he speaks Hebrews and Greek?. Answer is no. Jesus and his disciples primarily spoke Aramaic, the common language of Judea in the first century AD, most likely a Galilean dialect distinguishable from that of Jerusalem. This is generally agreed upon by historians. But prophet muhammad (SAW) spoke arabic, Qur'an was revealed in Arabic and we still have arabic speaking people (arabs and nonarabs) and Qur'an in its original arabic is still here today. Gbam.

So again, where is original injil references by zoer?. The answer is you don't have it. What you have is a story Bible called Bible. That's why it is addressed as "according to Mathew, Mark, Luke and John". None of them is according to Jesus.


The original Quran was written on bones, stones, leaves and Uthman and Zaid burnt them, today there is no original Quran. There were not diacritical marks during the days of Muhammad and during the days of Uthman the author and editor of the present day Quran
I have always wanted to ignore you on silly write up like this because you don't make sense. Anyways, diacritical marks on arabic texts is similar to diacritical marks on Yoruba phrases. That's, ami oun. For example, Ogun and Ogun. There is no difference in there right up. But in order to differentiate their meanings, Yoruba scholars invented "Ami oun" or diacritical marks to identify their differences. So Ógún (Will). Ògùn (herbs). A you can see it doesn't change texts but different meanings. This is what arabic and Islamic scholars applied to Qur'an to make it easy for people to read and understand. It doesn't change the texts.


As at 652 A.D. when Uthman compiled, standardized and burnt the original manuscripts of the Quran, were there diacritical marks in Arabic language?

Diacritical marks only came into existence in 8th century and the 9th century, long after Muhammad had died and long after Uthman had given out his own standardized version of the Quran. (This is verifiable fact)


The arabic skeletal script is without the diacritical marks and vowelization:

Fathah = ah
Dhammah = oo
Kasrah = ii
Your problem is, you copied and pasted what english and american anti Islam said. But you failed to realize that their language is not like arabic and yoruba. Their English language doesn't require diacritical marks and you copied them without thinking.

I understand your concern when you brought out the KJV as your proof that the Bible is corrupt. Note, there is a big difference between english translation like the KJV, NIV, RSV, GNB, etc (just like you have Yusuf Ali, sahih international, Mushin Khan, Picktall, Ahmed Ali translations of the Quran) and Bible Hebrew and Greek manuscript. Now let me burst your bubble, both sahih international and Yusuf Ali translated Quran 10:5 differently. Go and read it and tell me which one is the right translation.

Now, let's come back to your concern, KJV uses old english in their translations which in modern days can be very wrong to current english readers. For example, the KJV version often use the word 'the holy ghost' to refer to 'the holy spirit'. Ghost and Spirit, to modern english speakers, are different but to the english speakers of 200-400 years ago they have not problem with that.

Besides, the word 'it' was also used for spirits in KJV instead of 'he' or 'his' as a pronoun for spirits. To a modern reader this is a problem because it makes spirits sound like inanimate objects. The good news here is that the translator of KJV have understood this concern and try to revised the translation in order to address this concern and are never ashamed to address them publicly. The result is the production of the NKJV.

And note, there is a different between biblical manuscripts and Bible translations. KJV is a Bible translations into english language, and just as you cannot refer Yorubas quranic translations as a standard Quranic manuscript you cannot hold KJV into the same standard. I hope you get the logic and understand my english.

So stop using Islamic, and ACADIP template, to blackmail the Bible and the Christan faith in particular. That talking point can only work on the uninformed. Thank you!
Sorry, bros. Translations of Qur'an to different languages are not Qur'an. We called it "translations of the meaning" of Qur'an.

Translators tried as much as possible to use choice of words that are very close to the arabic texts. Qur'an was revealed in Arabic.

Surely We have revealed it-- an Arabic Quran-- that you may understand. Q12:2


Qur'an is in arabic not translated copies. Qur'an is only one version. We translated Qur'an so that nonarabic speaking can grab its messages. If there is error in translation we got back to arabic text. Arabic text, with which Qur'an was revealed is unique everywhere in the world.

But this is not the case with Bible. The reason we will keep faulting Bible is because you no longer have original transcripts which Jesus spoke. There is no original Bible. Therefore, if you have different translations today that contain errors, distortions etc there is no way you can fix the problem because you do not have the original texts. But Arabic Qur'an is the original Revelation that's why we always return to it for confirmation of the meaning. I know that me and you discussed it before and we will keep talking about it forever.

It is very simple. If your ask MUSLIMs to bring original revealed Qur'an we will bring it out. But if we ask christians to bring out original Bible, it is impossible. You will always bring different Bibles. This is a major flaw in your Christianity.

This is why, is a made is misguided or falls into error in religion, he is she can always return to the original arabic text for guidance. But since christians don't have original texts it is impossible for them to be properly guided. This is why there are major different doctrines in Christianity. Many of you believe Jesus is God. Some of you don't believe Jesus is God and you have no original transcripts to confirm who is right or wrong. Therefore, Qur'an is the criteria that distinguishes truth from falsehood.

No, the verse is not related to war, it's talking about those that intially thought Muhammad was a true prophet and believed him initially and emigrated with him to Yathrib but later turned back from Muhammad and Islam when they realised the truth.

If you knew you wouldn't ask him to provide the proof. You had expected that he would not be able to give you the proof or you thought he will give you a daif hadith.
sometimes you need to be ignored. This topic I treated 5yrs ago when your fellow kiriyo were throwing "72 vagins" around as if they knew what they were talking about. I asked for proof but they couldn't. This means they relied on media propaganda. Then I pulled the Hadith. So I wanted to know if the guy knew what he was talking about. The same thing a guy said "Muhammad clearly said in the Qur'an to kill whoever leaves Islam". I asked for evidence from Qur'an but he came up with Hadith. This means majority of you guys are bigots. You all rely on media propaganda.

You sha want me to derail this thread.


Qur'an makes no mentioned of "72 vagins". And so what if Hadith said so?. Qur'an already described who are the shuhada (Martyrs). Martyrs are not terror!sts, bandits, murderers etc. If you think BH etc killed to get 72 vagins, you are dreaming.


According to Christianity, a martyr is a person who was killed because of their testimony of Jesus and God. Similarly, martyr in Islam is the one killed in the way of God. Example was former christian guy beaten by Christians in Nigeria because he embraced Islam. So he was beaten because he declared his Islamic faith. If he had died in the process he would be a martyr. You get the logic?.

Besides, who told you MUSLIM paradise is gonna be boring?. I asked the same question 5 yrs ago. Christian paradise is very boring. But muslims will enjoy forever.

So now, enough of this derailment. Thank you
