Greeting non-Muslims on their festivals
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q 2: I live with my family, and they are not Muslim. Allah has blessed me with Islam, so I embraced Islam, and praise be to Allah. When Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha come, my family congratulates me on the Eid. But when their festival comes and I do not congratulate them, they rebuke me and say to me, "You are an arrogant man." What should I do? Please advise us, may Allah reward you.
A 2: It is not permissible for you to congratulate non-Muslims on their festivals, and if
what happened to you of their rebuke and their saying to you that you are arrogant occurs, but it is prescribed for you to make Islam attractive to them and to advise them to enter it with gentleness and good manner. We ask Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) to open the door for your family to enter Islam. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and his Companions.
