Allah (Subhana Wa Ta’ala) knows the best. My question is in our city 95% Ulama celebrate this maulood. We are forced to pray behind them. What is the status of our namaz, will Allah accept it?

You should have attached the copy of the above mentioned Fatwa.
It is bida’h to celebrate Eid Milad Al-Nabi. If there are some other people of correct belief in your area then you should do jamah with them. And if it is not so then offer salah behind those imams who celebrate Eid Milad Al-Nabi in compulsion provided they do not have Shirkiya belief. It is better to offer salah behind bida’ti imam instead of offering it alone. In this case you shall get the virtues of jamah.
Allah knows Best!
