The Christians’ Participation in Their Festivals
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q 3: Is it permissible for Muslims to participate in the parties and occasions of the Christians after receiving an invitation, and vice versa?
A 3: It is not permissible to participate in the festivals and religious parties of the disbelievers, due to the saying of Allah the Exalted in describing the servants of the Most Merciful:[Al-Furqan 25:72] And it has been explained that al-zur (falsehood) refers to the festivals of the disbelievers, and witnessing them,
attending them, or participating in them. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
