Analogy with the compilation of the Qur'an in establishing the Mawlid
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, some of the Sufis permit establishing the Mawlid of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) by analogy with the compilation of the Qur'an; because it is a matter that did not occur during his time (peace and blessings be upon him).
Answer:
The recitations and acts of worship do not involve analogy, my brother. Acts of worship are based on divine prescription and do not involve analogy. The Messenger did not celebrate his birth, nor did the Companions celebrate it, nor the Successors, nor the blessed generations, so there is no analogy in this. This is an act of worship in which analogy is not permissible. Yes.
