Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is the ruling on attending the celebrations of the Prophet's birthday?

Answer:
It is forbidden for him to attend the bid'ah (religious innovation) celebration. The celebration of the Prophet's birthday is a bid'ah (religious innovation), and it is not permissible to attend it, encourage it, approve of it, or participate in it, because it is a bid'ah (religious innovation). All of it places one in tribulation.
