The Ruling On Decorating Our Houses On The Day Of Eid

Shaykh Ibn Uthaymeen, may Allaah have mercy upon him, was asked:

Question:

“What is the ruling on participating with the Christians on the birthday of the Messiah (Christmas) in which the people of the land celebrate this religious day? Many of them decorate their houses with some flowers and they place different types of lights on the walls of their houses and on other places as a form of adornment. Is it allowed for a Muslim to decorate the outside of his house with flowers and lights on the days of Eid of the Muslims?

Likewise, during this festival [i.e. Christmas] there are cars which go to the different districts carrying some sweets. They distribute them to the children in the neighbourhood for free. The children compete to obtain these sweets. We live among these people and our children see the likes of these actions. What is the ruling on our children to take these sweets?"

Answer:

“As for displaying happiness, joy, and adornment on Christmas or other than it from religious celebrations of the Christians, then it is haram without doubt. Rather, we say as Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy upon him) said:

‘If such a person is safe from disbelief [for committing this action], then the action which he has committed is more severe than drinking alcohol or other than that from what the Christians believe to be lawful. It is unlawful in the legislation’ End. [Ahkaam Ahlul-Dhimmah (1/441)]

So it is obligatory upon the Muslims to have honour and self-respect and not be followers of these Christians.

In regards to these cars, then it is upon the Muslims to object to the Christians if they go around with their cars in the neighbourhood of the Muslims. They should make apparent their rejection [of that action] towards them.

As for decorating the houses on the Eid of the Muslims, then I do not see any harm in this because this is displaying joy and happiness just as it is allowed to play the Duff (the hand drum), play with spears, and the likes [on that day]." End. [Fataawa ‘ala at-Tareeq (pg. 21-22)]

Summary:

The hadeeth of العَجْن (clenching the fists like when kneading dough) is INAUTHENTIC because:

1⃣. The chain contains an unknown narrator called Al-Haitham ibn ’Imrān as stated by Ibn Rajab in Fat-ḥ Al-Bāri:
((والهيثم هذا غير معروف))

2⃣. The authentic reports do not mention the addition of clenching the fist;
((رأيت ابن عمر إذا قام من الركعتين اعتمد على الأرض بيديه))

3⃣. Assuming the authenticity of the hadith, the most appropriate meaning of عاجن in this context is as ibn Rajab transmitted:
((العاجن هو الشيخ الكبير الذي يعتمد إذا قام ببطن يديه، ليس هو عاجن العجين))
“Al-’Ājin refers to the old man who supports himself with his palms when getting up. It does not refer to kneading dough (in this context).”

When To Say Allaahumma Baarik (Or Similar To It) & MaashaaAllaah Laa Quwwata Illaa Billaah

Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Saalih Al-'Uthaymeen, may Allaah have mercy upon him

Questioner:

"May Allaah extend your life! This is the questioner, Abuu 'Abdillaah, he says in the first question, 'If a person sees what amazes him, does he say MaashaaAllaah TabaarakAllaah (As Allaah wills, blessed is Allaah), or MaashaaAllah TabaarakAllaah Laa Quwwata illaa billaah (As Allaah wills, blessed is Allaah, there is no power except with Allaah) and are they all correct?'"

Answer:

"All praises are due to Allaah, Lord of the worlds, and prayer and salutation be upon our Prophet, Muhammad, his family, his companions and those who follow them in goodness until the Day of Judgement.

If a person sees that which amazes (pleases) him pertaining to his wealth, then he should say MaashaaAllah laa quwwata illaa billaah, just as in the story of the companion of the two gardens, when his companion said to him: 'It was better for you to say when you entered your garden: That which Allaah wills, there is no power except with Allaah (see Al-Quraan 18:39).' This is if he sees something amazing (pleasing) with his wealth.

If he sees it in other than himself then he should say Baarakallaahu 'alayhi (May Allaah bless it for him) or a statement similar to it..."

Islamic Knowledge & Its Effect On The Heart

Al-Imaam Ibnul-Qayyim, may Allaah have mercy upon him:

"Verily, knowledge is the food of the heart, its drink, its medicine; its life revolves around that. If the heart is deprived of knowledge, then it is dead, without being aware of its death."
