Holding Mawlid Celebrations and Attending Them

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible to attend Mawlid celebrations and recite poems with them on the grounds that they do not recite poems involving shirk (associating partners with Allah)?

Answer:
Answer: No, The original establishment of Mawlid celebrations is a bid'ah (religious innovation), and as for these poems, they are an additional affliction. So do not attend them except in a way that you are teaching and guiding them that this is what is permissible.
