Then some will say that Christians & Moslems worship the same God, yet the Islamic hatred of anything Christian is there for all to see.

If it's the same God , then why do moslems hate Christians?

Not even thinking of Islam's hatred of Israel

They say they love the prophets but hate their children


Who are they fooling?

If Dem like make Dem decorate their whole house,na their problem. So, should all Muslims worldwide start buying Christmas tree coz we have to please the Christians. Some Christians for my side here no even dey celebrate Christmas talkless of greeting one another,deal with those Christians first before referring to the Muslims.
But Sha, Happy Celebrations to Christians and Non Christians

Great Men!

Thank you for celebrating with us guys.
Thanks for reciprocating the love we share with you.
As we always say on this forum everytime...

Only the fanatics are giving religion a bad name...
We can coexist in peace no matter our differences..
We are happy to see very many Muslim celebrating Christmas with Christians this year.
Many topics on the Frontpage and other social media platforms we have seen this morning.
