If i go to milad celebration and there is only speech and may be food, SO will it be still a sin if i go with intention to listen to the speech? please help me.

Shaykh Ebrahim Desai

Answer:

The concept of Moulood (celebrating of the birth of Nabi (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam), has no basis in Shari?ah. Listening to a talk about the life of Nabi (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) is indeed a virtuous act.

This virtuous act, however, must not be associated with any un-Islamic factors, for example, intermingling of sexes, etc.

and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
