Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
What? Regarding the buildings.
The Shaykh:
O people.
The questioner:
For example, lessons on the logic of the Prophetic approach. It is possible to have lessons, for example, about our Master (peace and blessings be upon him) and
The Shaykh:
No, my brothers.
The questioner:
We have reached a point.
The Shaykh:
It is not permissible to celebrate the Mawlid, ever, nor the Hijrah, nor the birth, these are religious innovations (bid'ah). Because if you want to teach lessons in the mosque or in the school, in the other lesson periods, about the Prophet’s surah, and the phrase of his birth, and about his migration, lessons that the students learn, that is good. But the gatherings, the food, and the night, this is wrong. But this is a fallacy on their part, a fallacy
