The Ruling on Attending Mawlid Celebrations and Eating from Them

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on attending the celebrations held for mawlid (birthdays of the Prophet) and eating from these mawlid gatherings?

Answer:
Celebrating mawlid is a bid'ah (religious innovation), and it is not permissible to attend them. It is not permissible to attend mawlid parties or to eat from their food, because this is a form of supporting them and cooperating in sin and transgression. Yes.
