In this book, Sh. Muhammad Saleh Al-Munajjed tries to discuss the issue of participating in non-Muslim religious celebrations. He shows the correct answer about that based on the Quranic and Prophetic texts.

This is an answer from Sh. Muhammad ibn Saleh Al-Uthaimin about the ruling on the Valentine Day.

A fatwa translated into English in which Sh. Muhammad Saleh Al-Munajjed answers the following question, "Is it permissible for Muslims to congratulate each other and give duaa on the new year based on the Gregorian calendar without the intention of celebrating it?"

A fatwa translated into English in which Sh. Muhammad Saleh Al-Munajjed answers the following question, "What do you say to Muslims in the United Kingdom who celebrate at Christmas time or afterward by holding dinner parties in their houses, for their Muslim families, such as preparing the roast turkey and other dishes of the traditional Christmas dinner, and they adorn their houses with balloons and paper chains, and they do the “secret Santa” tradition, whereby each relative brings a gift for one of the people present and these gifts are brought to the party to be given to the one for whom he bought it, without the recipient knowing who he is. “Secret Santa” is a new, growing custom among non Muslims who celebrate Christmas, and is in accordance with their belief in the myth of Santa Claus. Is this action regarded as permissible or forbidden in Islam, if no one is attending this party except Muslims (relatives and family members)?"

A fatwa translated into English in which Sh. Muhammad Saleh Al-Munajjed answers the following question, "Is it permissible to attend the celebrations of Christian festivals and congratulate them?

A fatwa translated into English in which Sh. Muhammad Saleh Al-Munajjed answers the following question, "I see many "Muslims" joining in Christmas and other celebrations. Is there any proof from the Quran and Sunnah that I can present to them to show that these are indeed very sinful practices?"

ِAn article in English shows that we live in a time of excess entertainment and consumption so it is easy to get caught up in the so-called "holiday season" but we rarely stop to consider its significance. I say "so-called" because the word "holiday" is derived from the two words "holy" and "day". However, under closer scrutiny from the Judeo-Christian and Islamic perspectives, these days are anything but holy. Celebrations such as Easter, Christmas, All Saints’ Day, and Halloween, all find their roots in pagan traditions, away from the prophets' way (may peace and blessings of Allah be upon them all). The proof lies in the lack of historical evidence that the prophets ever celebrated their birthdays, decorated eggs, placed ornaments on trees, or dressed up in costumes. For additional examination of these holiday myths as religious innovation or heresy, we provide this article as a small attempt to warn people against the dangerous implications that come with such celebrations.

A fatwa in English in which Sh. Muhammad Saleh Al-Munajjed (may Allah preserve him) answers the following question, "I have a retail business, which during there holiday I carry there goods, like Christmas decoration, mothers day, Easter, Halloween, etc. Is this prohibited that I use to own a supermarket once I sold it and I didn’t want to get in to that again cause sold beer and pork. Also brother I hope you don’t mind mentioning some of the items I sale, tell me if its prohibited condoms, ceramic figures, cigarettes, lottery, medicine some contain alcohol, or the gel tablets, candy that may or my not have any prohibition in it, toothpaste, some of these items are prohibited for us to use but can it be sold to the kafir since they the only customers."

A fatwa in English in which Sh. Muhammad Saleh Al-Munajjed (may Allah preserve him) answers the following question, "I would like to no if it is prohibited to go to the Sydney royal Easter show. Although it is called the Easter show it really has nothing to d with Easter. I like to go for the craft, fruit, animal shows, they all have nothing to do with Easter."

The conflict between truth and falsehood is ongoing and will last as long as this world remains. The fact that some groups among the Ummah of Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) are following the people of falsehood.
