Description :

What does the Qur'an say about the commemoration of Mawlid ? Did the Beloved Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, celebrate his own birthday ? What about the Companions and the eminent Scholars of Islam ? This work; Mawlid un-Nabi, ?, has the answers to this modern day controversy.

Mawlid un-Nabi, not only improves one's understanding on why and how the practice of celebrating Mawlid is permissible but also deepens one's appreciation of this great event. It endeavours to address questions that if left unanswered could leave insidious doubt and communal division within the Muslim community.

The author uses detailed evidence on the permissibility and benefit of celebrating Mawlid from the Qur'an, authentic Sunnah, the Sayings of the Companions and multiple legal edicts (fatawa's) of Imams and scholars to support his stance and then refutes the critics with their own evidence.

This work is an abridged English translation of "Jashne Milad un-Nabi" by Mufassir e Qur'an, Shaykh al-Hadith; Allama Qari Muhammad Tayyib. This book will give you answers on the permissibility of celebrating Mawlid (the Birth of The Beloved Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace) in the light of the Qur'an and Sunnah.
