Ali Ataie – Expressing Joy for Birth of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is Hallmark of a Muslim

			Celebration of modid is indispensable.
		

			Every Muslim has to celebrate the modid. In
		

			other words, every Muslim has to be happy
		

			that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
		

			sent the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam. If you're
		

			not happy that Allah sent the prophet sallallahu
		

			alaihi wasallam, then there's something wrong with your
		

			Aqeeda.
		

			That's an Aqidah issue. On the day in
		

			which you do that, that's a issue. That's
		

			not an Aqidah issue. You do it one
		

			day,
		

			today,
		

			in in the masjid, somewhere else, that's that's
		

			not an Aftila issue. But but expressing joy
		

			for the birth of the prophet, sallallahu alaihi
		

			sallam,
		

			this is something that is indispensable.
		

			This is this is the hallmark of a
		

			Muslim. The Christians say, la ilaha illallah.
		

			I've heard them say it, Arab Christians.
		

			Jews, they say that too. What makes the
		

			difference? They say, what what makes the difference
		

			for us?
		

			Muhammad is the Messenger of God, the final
		

			Messenger of God.
