Is it permissible to hold Mawlid celebrations, recite the Qur'an for the dead, and dedicate the reward to them?

Question:
What is your opinion regarding those who say that holding Mawlid celebrations, reciting the Qur'an for the dead, and dedicating the reward to them is permissible?

Answer:
The correct view is that it is a religious innovation (bid'ah). Holding Mawlid celebrations and celebrating them is a religious innovation (bid'ah). The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did not do it, nor did his Companions, nor did he order it, nor did he call to it, nor did he approve of it (peace and blessings be upon him). Nor did the righteous Salaf or the best generations do it. Therefore, it is a religious innovation (bid'ah) and one of the means to associating partners with Allah (shirk). Celebrating Mawlid is a blameworthy religious innovation (bid'ah), and there is no difference between the Mawlid of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and any other. It is one of the means to associating partners with Allah (shirk), for some people, when they celebrate the Mawlid, call upon the person whose Mawlid it is and seek aid from him, just as some ignorant people do with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
Some of them say that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) attends them, that he comes out of his grave and attends them. This is from what is wrong. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) does not come out of his grave except on the Day of Resurrection. However, his soul is in Paradise, his soul is in the highest of the highest (peace and blessings be upon him), and it is returned to his body if Allah wills it when he is greeted (peace and blessings be upon him), as in the hadith. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: .
The point is that celebrating Mawlid, whether for the prophets, or for some of the righteous, or for others, or for kings, is all a religious innovation (bid'ah). It is not permissible to celebrate Mawlid because it is an invented matter, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: meaning: it is rejected.
And he (peace and blessings be upon him) said in the Friday sermon: And he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: These are authentic hadiths, some of them are in Muslim, some are in the two Sahihs, and some are in the Sunan.
It is obligatory for the scholars of Islam to discuss with people and teach them. It is obligatory for the common people to ask the people of knowledge about what is difficult for them, to gain understanding in the religion, and to ask the people of knowledge, the scholars of the Sunnah, not the scholars of religious innovation (bid'ah) or superstition. The question should be directed to the scholars of the Sunnah who know the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), who judge by the Qur'an and the Sunnah, and who act upon them.
As for the bad scholars and the scholars of religious innovation (bid'ah), they are not the ones to be asked, nor are they the people to be asked. The question should be directed to the people of knowledge who judge by the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), and who act upon them, and who follow the righteous Salaf in adhering to the Sunnah and being cautious of religious innovation (bid'ah). We ask Allah for guidance and success for everyone. Yes.
