Celebrating national day

Answered by 

Q: Is celebrating national day permissible in Islam? If it is not permissible then why is there a holiday in Saudi Arabia on national day?

Bismillaah

A: There is no concept of a national day. These are kuffaar customs.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
