Celebrating & Participating in Mawlid Out of love for the Prophet
There is nothing in the Qur’aan to say that we should celebrate the Mawlid or birthday of the Prophet SallAllaahu Alayhi wa Sallam. The Prophet himself SallAllaahu Alayhi wa Sallam did not do this or command anyone to do it, either during his lifetime or after his death.
The Sahaabah (may Allaah be pleased with them) were the people who loved the Prophet SallAllaahu Alayhi wa Sallam most. They had a greater love and respect for him, and were more aware of his rights, than those who came after them,
Was it reported that Abu Bakr, who was the closest of people to him and the one who loved him the most, celebrated the birthday of the Prophet SallAllaahu 3Alayhi wa Sallam?
Was it reported that 3Umar, who ruled for twelve years, or 3Uthmaan, did this?
Was it reported that 3Alee, his relative and son-in-law, did this?
Was it reported that any of the Sahaabah did this?
No, by Allaah! Is it because they were not aware of its importance, or did they not truly love the Prophet SallAllaahu 3Alayhi wa Sallam? No one would say such a thing except one who has gone astray and is leading others astray.
Did any of the Imaams – Abu Haneefah, Maalik, al-Shaafi3ee, Ahmad, al-Hasan al-Basri, Ibn Seereen – do this or command others to do it or say that it was good?
By Allaah, no! It was not even mentioned during the first and best three centuries.
