Hey everyone!!
Welcome to another video in my “New Revert Series” that I have going here on CZcams! In this series I discuss the basics of Islam with topics from prayer, to making wudhu, to my own revert journey! The aim of this video is to make it easier for those struggling to learn their deen! This video focuses on Christmas as a revert, offering advice about the issue that so many revert face regarding how they approach Christmas and how they should react to the issue of celebrating Christmas! InShaAllah this helps some of you x

Christmas times are always tough, but I totally agree with your two cents on this topic. JazakAllahu kheyran, Sam ❤️
I pray you come to the saving knowledge of Jesus. Without Him, we are not saved. God Bless you and keep you, Sister Julie!
@@valival226 Im good thank you sis. I left Christianity as I believe the trinity to be illogical - amongst many other reasons. God bless!
What do you do if someone gets you a gift?
czcams.com/video/QEtmSLjgbOU/video.html
@@valival226 sister watch this channel on CZcams " one message foundation ".......many Christian doesn't know reality of what the bible is saying. 98% of Christian doesn't read the bible fully, doesn't ask question. They are just for namesake " I am Christian " doesn't follow the teaching of jesus. Always modified.
As a Muslim born married to a revert its even harder to be present on my in laws celebrating day. I don’t participate but still inside i feel bad when we will have kids it’s going to be harder. May Allah help us with this hardship
May Allah swt help you x
As Salamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakathu ❤
If you are becoming specialist of the topic "x-mas", with all it's kulturall, also satanic and wrong birthdate-, mixed influences, InshaAllah you will be able to explain lovely and logically, why you can not do X-Mas Celebration with your kids. May Allah help you,
Ameen ❤
Make hijrah it's an obligation
It’s not a big deal, when your kids grow up in sha allah just explain to them the truth. Be present with the family but u don’t have to believe in what they believe.
@mindfreedom1 yes most Muslims don't know it's an obligation it's sad cause so much could ve been prevented if they knew about this obligation and it's seriousness
Allah said:
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ تَوَفَّاهُمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ ظَالِمِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ قَالُوا فِيمَ كُنْتُمْ ۖ قَالُوا كُنَّا مُسْتَضْعَفِينَ فِي الْأَرْضِ ۚ قَالُوا أَلَمْ تَكُنْ أَرْضُ اللَّهِ وَاسِعَةً فَتُهَاجِرُوا فِيهَا ۚ فَأُولَٰئِكَ مَأْوَاهُمْ جَهَنَّمُ ۖ وَسَاءَتْ مَصِيرًا
«Those who do harm to themselves. The angels will take away their souls by saying: "Where were you?" (About your religion) "We were weak on earth," they said. Then the angels will say, "Was not the land of Allah large enough to allow you to emigrate?" These are the ones whose refuge is Hell. what a bad destination!»
When Allah wants good for someone He gives them understanding of the deen. This ayah reminded me of you. May Allah keep you steadfast in the deen.
I completely agree. Don’t isolate yourself from these rare moments when the family all come together. I was told by a friend that her friend who’s a revert never stoped participating in these events. Gradually, as years pass by. This revert family ended up embracing Islam.
I’m not saying if you go to these events that everyone in the family will become Muslim (although it happened in this case.) but it will show the character of a Muslim and the people who attend usually observe these things.
I stopped celebrating and attending a Christmas family get together years ago. I thought it was the proper thing to do...but it damaged the relationship with me and my family 😔
Exactly. It will make them more isolated and distant from you. My partner and his family celebrate, nothing wrong with exchanging gifts and eating together. mostly only do it for tradition anyway. Do what you gotta do then go pray and read Quran lol i love the diversity if anything.
Assalamualaikum
Time to fix it brother how is it going on now?
I told my non muslim family members. They hated it but got used to it years later because they saw I wasn't going to compromise my deen for their belief. When you stick to your belief your non muslim family will eventually respect you for it.
Celebrating and just being present has a difference, may Allah bless each and one of you that live in families with mixed religions, us that come from muslim families should appreciate you more for your efforts., simply because of the fact that you are a bridge between us and them, you are our ambassadors, carry on telling your families that we have brotherly/sisterly love for them, some of them may think that we hate them, please tell them it is far from the truth.
Vaita exactly! There is a huge difference between celebrating something from belief and celebrating for good social relationships.
CHRISTMAS ARE FROM PAGAN.. THIS CHRISTIAN PRIEST CONFIRMED IT... czcams.com/video/TE8lVXOsOAcL/video.html
Sister your so right! MaShaAllah! Loved everything you've said!
I agree with you sister. Like you, I too embraced Islam & have grappled with the whole Christmas as a revert issue. I also understand & accept the reality that we as Muslims do not celebrate Christmas.
I don't wish people (especially even the kids I teach swimming to & work collegues at work) a Merry Christmas, rather I simply wish them happy holidays &/or all the best. They are all cool with that. I wouldn't expect them to wish me Eid Mubarak, in the same way they wouldn't expect my to wish them Merry Christmas.
To you be your way & to me be mine (Surah Al-Khafaroon, Ayat 6)
Many years before I embraced Islam, I had stopped celebrating it as I understood the origins of the occasion. My parents knew & understood that I wasn't into the whole thing (I think I was around 13 when I stopped celebrating although I didn't embrace Islam till I was 28). My wife & I still go up to my home town to visit them regularly throughout the year & they really enjoy whenever my wife & I come up. Just not at Christmas time - they usually do their own thing anyway.
Now I am Muslim, my wife & I spend Christmas, having a Lebanese BBQ with a Muslim family. Away from Christmas celebrations, alcohol, etc. Alhamdulillah. :)
Ma sha Allah. Bless you and your wife. May Allah keep you and all of us on the right path.
I think for someone that is born Muslim, it doesn’t make sense to celebrate Christmas, as I don’t celebrate for example Diwali. But if you are a revert it’s different. There is nothing wrong to just wish marry Christmas and to eat with your family, to simply be together and enjoy the happiness of the day. This doesn’t mean you believe in it. A lot of Christians nowadays don’t believe in it either. It is just a celebration that was also done in the past to exorcise the fear of the winter and the darkness 💕
Anna Artemis If Christians don’t believe in it then they aren’t Christians
@@Ash_Queen16 Those Christians don't believe in Christianity is called culturally Christians, likewise there are Muslims, who don't practice Islam, but they are culturally Muslims who are not serious about the practice of Islam, who don't care for the salvation.
Without killing Jesus, will there be a salvation left for you, or will there be a religion called Christianity remain on Earth, do you believe in it?
I am going to visit my family om christmas. I don't go to church with them. I just stay home and talk to them but I don't celebrate it nor greet people with mary Christmas. I believe it's haram to say that.
Yes its haram saying marry Christmas is accepting that jesus is son of god which naozubillah not true so yes u r believe right and doing the right thing.
Make them have a good Eid , ramdan and adha Eid experience with you too
This is my first visit to your channel
Really happy for you barak Allah lekky
Masha-Allah Sister. Very good guidance for converts. May Allah bless you with happiness in this life and accept you for Jannah in the next life.
Asalmu alaikum .
You are truly an inspiration . Alhamdulilah a lovely person . May you prosper may lord fill your life with noor and happiness. Insha allah . You are the best .
Great job sister .....may you got more peace in your heart
Thank you for sharing your views on Christmas Sister
I’m western/white (variable spirituality) and my bf is an arab muslim and this year I celebrated Eid and he celebrated Christmas....love and respect for each other’s cultures and way of life led us to experience special memories and moments by learning about each other’s celebrations ❤️
You’re so wise, thank you for this Sam
I pray for you to know Jesus as your Lord and Savior, Felicia. Bendiciones!
ValEvLo I’m Muslim, I was Catholic for most of my life until I realized that Islam is a better religion for me. I don’t think this comment was appropriate. No one is asking you to change your religion.
Sister you are a Good Muslima. If there were more like you, there would be less like me. Grt message
A revert journey is a progression, baby steps are best let your journey unfold organically and don’t feel over burdened or the person will feel resentment and that it’s way too hard.
None of us are perfect and one Muslim may be good in one thing and not another .
I bought my mother gifts at Christmas and treated her well , she went out of her way to celebrate eid for me,
Guess what she ultimately took shahada Islam should not be extremely difficult it just puts people off ,
May I add it’s about intention I didn’t believe Jesus was the son of god or that it was even his birthday as it isn’t , but I respected my mother and her beliefs , and was really chill
Anyways that’s my view

Your such a queen ❤❤
Hey may your family have great days always. May Allah bestow His grace & blessings on u & your family always. Ameen.
MashaAllah Sister you are an inspiration for all muslims. May Allah bless you.
Amazing video as usual, you broke it down pretty well. Unfortunately, so many born Muslims celebrate Christmas WILLINGLY, it's absurd
Love your videos mate... keep it up.
l was born muslim , l am so happy when sying your videos , may Allah bless you sister .💐💖💖
And as for alcohol: since I became Muslim I realise how crazy people are in Aussie culture to drink. My mum was dying in her bed 2yrs ago and every night we were there her 2 sisters were drinking wine and eating cheese in the dining room nearby like they were at a bloody party. It made me so angry. Like, they couldn’t even give it up in a time of grief. It really makes you see when you don’t drink.
Asalamu alaykom ☺️ jazak Allahu khayr for another beautiful educated video mash Allah ❣️
WalaykumAsalam sis x
Love this vid !
Thank you so much for teaching me
Ma'sha'allah. Really wonderful video.
By the way, wasn't Santa originally some demonic figure from a pagan holiday? I was just asking because that is what I heard from some Islamic video, I honestly do not know which CZcams channel it was.
NFS Beast no that’s krumpus it’s seperate and celebrated before christmas in germany
@@sophbooks2 there is no evidences for Christmas in early Christianity. And there is no evidences of celebrating Christmas in bibles as well ...
Santa is based on Saint Nicholas, a 4th century Greek bishop who, according to legend, secretly gave gifts to people in need. "Santa" means saint in several European languages and "Claus" is a short form of Nicholas.
@@Starlightsixty czcams.com/video/QEtmSLjgbOU/video.html
@@rajababy2009 No thanks. I'm not a theist so, respectfully, I'm not interested in what various people believe about the origins of Christmas. Christmas has enormous secular value to many people, as does the tradition of Santa Claus. No one is trying to force anyone to participate in the tradition of Santa if they don't want to, but the tradition has special meaning for many people and he isn't based on a demonic figure. He is based on the historical St Nicholas, that is a verifiable fact. Happy New year.
My sister big respect. To you
I would like to give my thoughts on these 2 topics:
- You cannot be "born Muslim": believing is something you choose when you have learnt. It is a proactive thing to become and be a Muslim. But yes, you can be born in a Muslim home.
- Celebrating Christmas is not haram: in Islam, something is forbidden when it is CLEARLY forbidden. The prophet (pbuh) not celebrating Christmas does not mean it's forbidden to celebrate it, as long as you don't worship Jesus. If a hadith was found saying that the prophet (pbuh) never wore a black shirt, it doesn't mean wearing a black shirt is haram. My family and I are Muslim and yet, we celebrate Christmas every year not as a religious thing whatsoever, but as a good time to be all reunited, have fun, decorate, eat a good meal and give to charities.
Salam
and enjoy your holidays :)
czcams.com/video/xUFwoIV1eUc/video.html
It's have been said that Jesus wasn't even born on Christmas, I can't speak for the nation, but most people around me enjoy the festivities and being with family and you can simply say Happy Holiday. Thank you for sharing your views. May Allah continue to bless you
What do you think about buying gifts. I told my family this year I’m not celebrating Christmas I don’t want any gifts. People at work have bought me things and my family. So I feel pressure to buy them all gifts. But then that’s me celebrating with them.
Buy them things in the new year! It’ll be more unexpected and just as special x
Samantha J Boyle thank you Samantha great idea (:
365 days a year,my dear, to gift them anything you like...
They must see youre new way of life,accept ,
And, be accommodating to you, mashallah.
I say these thing from experience, I did the wrong way, when I reverted to Islam,and
I paid heavy price) I'm left with on top prior regrets, more regrets.
I knew from start how to conduct my self,yet,felf I somehow had to please,family,like a guilt trip,and oh my,they DO rub it in...after all reverts ARE the bravest id say.
Many Muslims actually put a tree in their houses which is weird..as many Christians know that jesus was born in September not in December , a Christian told me that as a fact but many of them just do the traditions. Thanks for sharing this, by the way red looks good on you.
CHRISTMAS ARE FROM PAGAN.. THIS CHRISTIAN PRIEST CONFIRMED IT... czcams.com/video/TE8lVXOsOAcL/video.html
No Jesus was born in December 25 not September , stop saying something that you don’t know
U you have to ask
FashionBIRD404 they do know that Jesus was born in December 25
Slmz, to you,dear.
Muslims ,Xmas trees in their houses,oh gosh.
Please tell me , you know them and strictly reminded them why they're not to do that.
Its weird like you say,no not really,, like to know "why" they're doing that,,
I'm very sure lots of non Muslims, asking same questions... Muslims do not have to impress ,
Non Muslims at all..
In end,going to laugh at us,and say look slowly we winning them over,to becoming non Muslims themselves,,, it states that in holy Koran,its ALL in iblees plan, before the world ends,
Starts with little things here and there...
It's so sad that there are many Arab muslims who celebrate Christmas even go to new year's parties, dressing like Santa claus, putting Christmas lights, take photos with Christmas trees..etc, just copying western traditions without thinking.
Thanks for bringing up this topic ❤
As Salamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakathu Dear Samantha ❤Very beautifully you have done this Video. And I like your super natural being and that you always put Islam on first place in your Videos, Alhamdulillah. This I would call "clean Content", MashaAllah, so you would not have been in need to put the XMas Cap and decoration on your Cover ;-) You have spoken well- What is haram for Muslims is haram for whole of humankind❤
MashaAllah!! I just think, especially reverts, many times only understand the deep logic and wisdom behind the Haram and Halal Principles, if they are explained from their perspectives, translated into the direct speech and law in Islam from Quran and Sunna. As revert I remember, how many times I had to go back to the basically old believe System, to bring every Single thing clean converted into Islam. Finally, after really all of my questions found logically answers, my Iman became strong, my Wisdom and my believe became strong, that I felt completed and wanted to speak my Shahada new.
What should I do my family drinks from the beginning till the end :( not Only on Christmas but always, I never visit them all together, only each one by themselves to avoid the alcohol.
what if you recieve christmas presents from you afamily and friends do u accept them?
Sam I have a question, so I'm a revert too, my family mainly have Christmas music on all day and dance around, get drunk and eat food. What should I do when there dancing to Christmas music because of me growing up a I know the words to Christmas songs should I just go upstairs away... But then I'd have to go upstairs all day because they have music on all day. This is the first Christmas I'm not celebrating so I just hope I get it right and don't disobey Allah❤️😞
Hello Maliha! I am so happy to see your comment and I completely understand your situation 😊 May I suggest something?
I have a lot of new muslim friends and many of them are talking about this group of people called reverthelp team on Tumblr, and their Instagram is @revert_help. They tell me about the struggles they go through such as not having witnesses while saying the shahadah bc there is no mosque around, finding reliable sources, telling their families, changing their lifestyles etc. They mentioned that the admin is a professional life coach, who helps people during their process, answers their questions and provides them with reliable Islamic sources. They have a really nice community too. Seeing your comment I thought they can be of good use for you as well if you need any information or resources. Do send them a message 😊 best ✌🏻
@@sarahk8565 ahww thankyou so much may Allah bless you sis ill give them a message In Shaa Allah
there is no need to go upstairs , Just be there for your family ... and pray for them and slowly educate them that there is no deviance for Christmas even in bible
czcams.com/video/xUFwoIV1eUc/video.html
Salam samantha thanks for this video I can say that was pretty useful for me , u edit this video 1 week ago And now 13-12-2019 10:1 o’clock so after 2 hours will be new year . But is that okay to say happy new year 🎊 Iam Muslim also but we respect all prophets as u know better than me .✨❤
In my Classical civilisation class (it's where I study about Roman's and Greeks) I learnt that Christmas originated from Roman's and the Roman's used to celebrate the saturnalia which was when the Roman's celebrated their God Saturn's ( god of harvest) birthday from the 17th of December to the 25th and when christianity came along the roman king of that time changed the whole festival around from the Saturnalia to Jesus's birthday
Mashallah JazakAllah khair
My sister is a Irish Catholic so I just celebrate with her she lives in Ireland which is quite different too
Not the same situation as yours, but you see in Nigeria, where we have mixed religions, everyone celebrates everything. The Muslims celebrate Christmas with their Christian friends and wish them Merry Christmas while the Christians celebrate Salah with their Muslim friends and wish them Barka de sallah.
I agree with what you say, as long as it is not related to worship, of course (for me) we can get together especially with family. Regarding the Merry Christmas greeting, usually I just say Happy Celebrating. I don't think that would be against Islamic rules.
Luckily for me my family has stopped celebrating Christmas. At least my mom and my older sister have. And I honestly miss Christmas songs.
Help me... many colleges and patients at work wish me automatically "merry christmas" even if some of them knows i dont celebrate it. What should i answer? I answered to themm "thanks, to you too. Or merry christmas" because i didnt want to be mean 😔😔
Say happy holiday to them :)
thank you for the video.
Sister I think you should make a video on how can we celebrate Eid properly InshaAllah😀☺😀😀(have a great excitement for that😊)
Agreed ..dont cut all ties from non muslim families..just treat it as family gathering..
Thing is, I grew up in a religious Christian family. We never celebrated Christmas the secular way. Midnight church service that's us, prayers, hymns. When I look into the history of Christmas, it's actually quite scary...😈worship. For our children's sake, I think we have to disengage ourselves from Christmas celebrations. Gonna be our first hols here in Christchurch New Zealand as Muslims.
You are right sister. Allah dnt like extremism. We should have balance. Like you said dnt say or do anything wrong but dnt make it a big deal.
May god bless you
Masha Allah sister may Allah bless you with his countless mercy amiin
I pray for your to know Jesus as your savior. Your good deeds are filthy rags to God.
Revert of almost a year and the struggle is real 😞 I have wonderful, thoughtful friends who have given me “early” Christmas gifts and I just thanked them and accepted them. Was this allowed? I didnt want to seem ungrateful...
Witness Truth
"Non muslim family"
That's a broad brush you got there, size it down a little bit will ya? You can not live amongst or with the mushrikin. And last time I checked mushrikin are non muslims.
Allah knows best
Baby Kimi
look I said you are not allowed to live amongst and/or with mushrikin. This is from Qur'an and hadith. However, you can live amongst the christians ( on certain terms and conditions)
semantanijones The Prophet ( pbuh ) of God prohibited muslims to live amongst and/or with mushrikin.
Witness Truth I'm sorry to say that was the stupidest argument I've come across today. There's a difference between what came out of Prophet's ( pbuh ) mouth aka Revelation from God and what Prophet ( pbuh ) had done beforehand. Wine was legal and so was Mut'a, they are both forbidden now. Reasons? *REVELATION from the Almighty*
In the ilm ladounni (celestial knowledge) its allowed to do christmas, halloween, etc..
Salaam samantha my family are Muslims but they put Christmas tree because they say we live in a western world and it is tradition is that haraam and thy say merry Christmas to each other as a practicing Muslim I don’t know what to do can any one help me with this please.
May Allah blesses you with barakah of life sister..asalam alaykum
Samantha, can you talk about marriage or how to get married as a Muslim?) Thank you for the videos )
Its not that hard u have to find a good musliam boy and tell him i wanna marry u if he is interested too he will send his parents to ur house to ask ur parents for rishta means to marry u.then just invite few family member do nikkha and its done 😁.
I go for the food and seeing my family but I do say happy holidays to people
And I still sing Christmas songs as a Muslim and btw Jesus was born in the summer months not December
You are great.
thanks
I don’t think saying merry Christmas to people who celebrate it is wrong ..you are respecting their choice in celebrating what their religion is ..it doesn’t mean you are celebrating it...
Well my family we don’t celebrate last time I celebrated Xmas 2005. My family don’t celebrate it. I am kind of blessed.
Alhumdulilah
I pray you can come to know Jesus. He is the only way.
I agree ☝️
Thank you
Assalamu'alaikum Sista. You have the ability to explain in a simple way that make the masses understand it easily. You're wise and talented figure to be a muslimah scholar. Hope you will gain more knowledge and be a legitimate scholar to serve your community particularly and in the internet world. May Allah bless you dunya and akhirat. Aaminn.
Masha’allah
I am a born muslim, and as tho you have some great points, as a muslim and in islam we are still entitled to respect and be supportive of other people’s beliefs
it doesn’t mean you believe in those things or any of that its just a gesture and respect on your behalf, I have plenty of christian friends and they have come to the mosque out of respect, as have I been to a church to respect them in return
all that is okay
selam ♥️
Why you not saying salam again?
you can celebrate crismas , it doesnt matter , its all about intention , theres nothing wrong this giving gifts and having a chrismas tree as long as youre not doing it for the wrong reasons. i dont personally do chrismas cause my family doesnt but if a friend gives me a card or were to give me a gift , ill buy them one too. its generous not haram. Just have the right intention , dont celebrate it cause ''jesus was born on that day'' and so on.
@Abdul-Haqq theres a lot that the prophet didnt do that we do today cause they didnt have the resourses , it doesnt mean we shouldt do it. islam is all about intention. nowhere in the quran does it say , ''you cant give gifts'' ''you cant have lights up in your house'' ''you cant have a chrismas tree''.
@Abdul-Haqq i never said we were better. you couldve made that point in 1 sentence. Im not saying walking around saying marry chrismas and celebrating it is the way of islam. im saying , there is nothing haram about having lights on a tree and giving gifts . you aint gonna go to hell for it. its what you belive that matters.
Just like sheik zakir said “What people don’t realise is that when you are wishing Merry Christmas, you are agreeing that Jesus Christ was born on the December 25th and… he is the son of God… which is shirk.”
@@wamu6379 no youre not , its all about intention. everyone has their own meaning for chrismas.chrismas isnt even about jesus for most people today. people who arent even religious cenebrate it , in korea chrismas isnt even about jesus , its about couples. not saying its nay better but thats my point , chrismas isnt about what it used to be.
Good job keep doing
I have not told anyone I converted to Islam yet. What I'm doing is buying new years gifts for my family instead. I'm not going to decorate, or celebrate christmas this year.
I agree you... We muslim cannot celebrate non muslim holiday but spend time with family non muslim that ok.. Just show them the kindness of a muslim with respect them. I like your hijab, keep cover your aurat. Allah love you. I from malaysia have religion islam, kristian, hindu, budha and others
MashaAllah beautiful ♥
We go to family after Xmas and we do presents for our kids because our Xmas was never religious. My mum took us to church when we were little but as grownups never. My dad is an atheist and he loves Xmas but it is simply a family day, a day to give random happy presents. My dad doesn’t believe anything in the bible so it has nothing to do with religion in his home.
Salam from Muslim in the b philli Philippines
.
I can’t lie it is so hard not to sing Christmas songs and bake cookies and food and other family traditions
Nice to saw and hear u sister..and I would like to request u to watch ASMA-UL-HUSNA ( 99 names of allah) by ATIF ASLAM , coke studio and give ur reaction how u felt it ..thanks
My issue is that I’m an MINOR CHILD, I’m only 16, where I live my parents can LEGALLY FORCE me to go to church.
Also, if someone purchases me a gift, I’m not gonna throw it back at them and be like ‘screw you’ I don’t celebrate, I’m gonna say thanks and be nice
Masa Allah
I agree with your perspective..meskipun tidak seagama bukan berarti kita berhenti mencintai keluarga kita epecially our parents..sorry i mix with indonesian word coz i'm not good at english
We just gather for new years and eat together that's about it.
We Don't even talk about Christmas.
I know most scholars say it’s not ok to celebrate Christmas, but we Muslims are accounted for our intentions not deeds. Spend Christmas with your family and friends with intention of (صلة الرحم). You don’t believe in what Christmas stands for ,(which’s Jesus birthday) and that’s the most important thing.
Al wala al Bara sister
Witness Truth But I do
i think you are good in judge
I am not revert and again I work Christians environment which is difficult to cope with . It’s hard to tell almost 500 people that you don’t celebrate Christmas but I ignore most of them and some I tell them what I believe and shouldn’t celebrate as my religion is not permitted.
الحمد لله
So nice 👍🇧🇩
Assalaam alikum dear sister I agree with you,my opinion like this events join with ur family but keep isolation from Haram things, Allah knows better, and pray for them, one of our Sheikh Abudl Wahab sahib who passed away last year he keep map in front for him and do Dua for all countries, Ya Allah give hidaya to this and this country.every day his bayan was 3 hours Doctor's says don't do bayan you have throat problem then he says I obey you or Allah in more than 90 years he passed away.
Please turn to Jesus! He loves you more than you can ever fathom. I have seen Hell and Muhammad was there :(
@@valival226 dear sister don't telling a lie nobody can see hell yet.. if u see actually the hell in ur dream then you will cry more then laugh. Allah give you hedaya sister . We can pray for you we can't turn ur heart.this will be ur bad luck if you die in the same position.
You should celebrate with your family Christmas, while not believing, Islam allowed us to congratulate them on their holidays
how? from where did islam allow us to congratulate them? that mean you don't understand islam
So you congratulate that God has a son?
@@Abbatyya This is your concept, but my concept differs from the birth of Jesus Christ ,,, move away from extremism and do not alienate people from radical Islam
Can you make a video about the CAB & NRC law in India. Indian Muslims are in danger. They need our support. More voices must be raised for the sake of their safety.
I am a born muslim but if I were you, I would meet all the family members at christmas with good "ikhlaq", make them feel that I care and also make them feel important. So they can see what my religion has turned me into through my morals. But I'll make this whole interaction relatively short to make it clear that I am not there to celebrate christmas but instead to meet them and then leave the place. I would not spend the night at my home (assuming living with non muslim parents, etc.) if the guests are coming over and they would drink and do that sort of haram stuff all night.
Christmas is what you need to understand true love and love of family, religion would never get you there... Open your heart... And christmas day is not abt eating pork and drinking alcohol.
Jesus was born sometime in October/Ramadan time 2023 years ago.
Should Muslims Join the Christmas Fever?
This is one of those topics that always has to resurface every time the event comes around.
I completely agree that there are many more important topics that must be discussed and shared, but it so happens that unfortunately and regretfully this topic of “Muslims celebrating Christmas” is at the top of the list of questions during this season.
It really does come as a shock for us to receive this many queries about an event that has nothing to do with us as Muslims.
I will go one step further and say it has nothing to do with Christianity as a religion as well. We all know that this whole Christmas topic is even controversial among Christians themselves.[1] There are Christians who completely denounce Christmas and refuse to celebrate anything from it.[2]
It doesn’t concern us whether or not all or some Christians celebrate Christmas. That’s an internal issue they have. But this issue serves as a strong argument against us Muslims who might find ourselves obliged to take part in something in solidarity with people around us, but yet the practice itself has no basis.
When we know that Islam is a complete religion and a way of life, with a long and vast heritage, it has so much in it that would really keep us occupied throughout the year. We will be so busy and vibrantly active, we won’t have any time for anything else.
Look at all the occasions we have during the year. As a Muslim, do you do anything for these great celebrations: Ramadhan al-Mubarak, Eid al-Adha, 15th of Sha’baan, Eid al-Ghadir, or the birthdays of our Ma’sumeen (a.s.)?
Are they just normal days in your household that pass by and you or your children don’t even notice them? I am not just talking about the Mustahab things you should be doing on our sacred days and celebrations, but also creating such an atmosphere in the home, where the children live them.
Is that better for you to have, or to introduce non-Islamic practices that have no basis even in the religion they’re supposedly based on?
So it’s not just about having a Christmas tree in your house, or putting out biscuits and milk next to the fireplace. It’s about having pride in your heritage and identity.
When you read into Islamic law, one of the outstanding cases strongly reiterated is the prohibition of imitating non-Muslims and doing something that is a part of the rituals, habits or practices of non-Muslims.
For example, many hadiths insist on men shortening their moustaches, and then explain that it’s because Jewish men at that time would leave their moustaches to grow long. So it was a way of allowing themselves to be recognised as Muslims.
All of our jurists - Sunni and Shi’ah - say it is Haram for us to buy, sell, or adorn ourselves or our houses with statues or symbols of other religions. You cannot hang a crucifix, or put a Buddha statue, and then innocently say that there is no harm in it.
This isn’t belittling or insulting other religions. It is you as a Muslim being proud of what you have and keeping your personal space as Islamic as possible.

Why do you say "revert" not convert?
Slmz Samantha,,PLEASE
WHAT IS YOUR MUSLIM REVERT NAME,MY SISTER.
@John Dennis
N
Answer,is no
The sahabas names not changed, because they all had Arabic names given from birth.
Reason for changing name when you revert to Islam::no 1)
Names with bad meaning.
No 2)
Name with a nice meaning,changed for betterment.
3)
Names against unification eg.
King of kings ie.
ONLY ALLAH( GOD)/IS KING.NO OTHER KING BUT HE.
4) ANY name the realistic, don't consist of
Good will"with many other beautifying, good and beauty of carrying the sacredness of ALLAHS,(GODS)/ GOOD TO MANKIND ITSELF.
is meaningless...TO CARRY A NAME ON ONESELF THAT COMES FROM KORAN,BIBLE,AND OTHER HOLINESS...
IS GREATEST BLESSINGS. It because those were the sahabas,and others who gave mankind stepping stones, to live religious beliefs as close as possible to almighty GOD...WE as humans can only but TRY" none are perfect...but when a revert accepts a new sacred Islamic name ,there's only everything right about it.
Nothing can ever wrong that...yes,its strange,cause lots of other politics,eg,changing I'd.book etc etc.THAT,
Is hard in unislamic lands, but after all..
Its about striving for excellent way of life which Islam was/is/will always be.
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته كلامك صح
Your advice is amazing,you're truly gifted, yes, not one single Muslim Muslims, needs or has a such need to explain,or justify themselves at the Xmas,thing , in fact, should Muslims do that ,they'd probably lose more respect, from non Muslims,cause ,Koran states you to your religion,and me to mine.
Respect is a. Two way street, in other spheres.
I'm also revert,and true,
To the saying,when I realised that false deities,play role,I left xmas far behind.
Our world is made up of control from birth,by protocols,held by each countries laws...so
Being in a Islamic country, OR not makes a powerful impact on Xmas.
