Explaining the prescribed method of celebrating the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), which is following the Sunnah.

The Shaykh : This serves as a reminder that what came from the Salaf is truth and veracity: "No innovation is introduced except that a Sunnah is extinguished." We feel this with our own hands. How is this? I told you in my first statement that we have a prescribed celebration for the birth of the Messenger (peace be upon him). And I said: I do not want to go around in circles about that. Now I say: It is a confirmed Sunnah in the authentic hadiths, agreed upon by scholars, to fast every Monday of every week. This is well known, and some of the devout people even today maintain this Sunnah. As for the majority, may Allah preserve them, they maintain the obligation of fasting Ramadan, only fasting Ramadan! As for the majority, they turn away from this Sunnah. But I return to those few people who fast on Monday. If you asked them: Why do you fast on Monday? They would tell you: It is a recommended and virtuous Sunnah, and so on. This is sound speech, but it is not speech that indicates the awareness and knowledge that a Muslim should have. Especially when he celebrates with the masses of people this un-prescribed celebration of the birth of the Messenger (peace be upon him). This is what I wanted to remind you of.
It is mentioned in "Sahih Muslim" from the hadith of Abu Qatadah al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) who said: A man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah, "He asked him several questions, among which was:" What do you say about fasting on Monday? He said: . , what is the meaning of this answer?
He asked: What do you say about fasting on Monday? Meaning, is it a prescribed recommendation with good in it? So he answered him with this answer. And this answer is of the wise style, as if he is saying: Fasting on Monday is a prescribed fast from the perspective of thanking Allah (Mighty and Majestic) for the fact that I was born on this day and I was sent on this day. You must fast on Monday because I was born in it and sent in it. Do the Muslims today, who hold these dazzling, misleading celebrations, do they fast on Monday? We said: Very few fast. And this few do not know the wisdom of this fasting, which is the prescribed celebration of the birth of the Messenger (peace be upon him) and his sending (peace and blessings be upon him). Look; how Satan diverts people from what the Messenger (may the prayers and peace of Allah be upon him) legislated by what he innovates for them of Sunnahs and innovated methods!
I ask Allah (Mighty and Majestic) to grant us understanding in the Sunnah of our Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and to enable us to act upon it so that we may return to being true Muslims, and so that Allah (Mighty and Majestic) may support us with a noble victory; indeed, He is Able to do what He wills, and He is worthy of being answered. And may Allah send prayers and peace upon Muhammad the unlettered Prophet, and upon his family and his Companions.
