Following the Jews and Christians in Their Celebrations

14 February 2010 No Comment

Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri (Radiyallaahu `anhu) narrated that the last Prophet of God (Sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam) said,

“You will certainly follow the ways of those who came before you, span by span, cubit by cubit, until even if they were to enter a lizard’s hole, you would follow them.”

We said,

“O Messenger of Allaah, (do you mean) the Jews and Christians?”

He said,

“Who else?!”
