What is the ruling on the celebrations accompanying the return of the pilgrim?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : In front of the house, and then they say that no pilgrim passes by without blood entering the house.

The Shaykh : No, these are corrupt beliefs. How is this permissible? It is not permissible. Yes, it is not permissible. Then, on the second night, they gather at his house and perform what they call the Mawlid, a Hijazi Mawlid, attributing this Hijazi Mawlid to one of the people of the Hijaz. Huh? This is also wrong. And our wealthy sons. I say this is wrong. After that, they engage in, as you know, they engage in reciting hymns, supplications, and praise, beating the hand drums, swaying, and wailing, as they call it, "Ahbab" (lovers). Do you know what I mean? This is wrong, wrong. Yes. So, what is your advice to these people, O Shaykh? What is your advice to these people? My advice to these people is to abandon that. Yes. And to limit themselves to welcoming the one who has arrived, or to welcome him and greet him with a normal salam.
