Innovations in Religion and Worship
Significance of Mawlid al-Nabi and How It Is Celebrated
Celebrating Mawlid al-Nabi (the Prophet’s birthday) was not prescribed by Allah or by the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). So, it is not permissible for the Muslims to celebrate his birthday, in obedience to the command of Allah and the command of His Prophet.54,784Fasting on Prophet Muhammad’s Birthday: Permissible?
Singling out one day of the year for fasting, in celebration of Mawlid al-Nabi (the birth of Prophet Muhamamd), is an innovation (bid‘ah) that is contrary to the Sunnah of the Prophet. For more, see the detailed answer.157,429They choose a day on which to speak about the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) in the mosque and they call it a Mawlid
29,671Giving the reward for acts of worship to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)
23,383He gave charity on the basis that by doing so all his sins would be forgiven
15,251Is Salatul Tasbih Legislated?
The correct opinion is that Salatul Tasbih is not sunnah (from the prophetic teachings), and that the hadith about it is weak for several reasons which are detailed below.412,564Ruling on the imam saying to the congregation, “Pray Pray like a man bidding farewell”
36,487She is asking about myths concerning getting married between the two Eids, and what is wrong with that according to sharee’ah
36,818Is Marriage in Shawwal Disliked?
There is no basis for the false superstition about marriage in Shawwal. It is one of the leftovers of the Jahiliyyah (pre-Islamic era) when they used to be superstitious about that because of the connotations of the name of Shawwal which related to the drying up of the camel’s milk and the lifting of its tail.31,576Takbir in Unison Before the ‘Eid Prayer
Takbir in unison before ‘Eid prayer is an innovation because there is no evidence for it, and the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Whoever does an action that is not part of this matter of ours will have it rejected.” What `Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) did is not evidence for reciting takbir in unison; rather what `Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) did was to say takbir by himself, and when the people heard him they said takbir, each one by himself. This does not indicate that they all said takbir in unison.99,062
