Self Realization

هُوَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَ رَسُولَهُ بِالْهُدَىٰ وَدِينِ الْحَقِّ لِيُظْهِرَهُ عَلَى الدِّينِ كُلِّهِ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ - 61:9

It is He who sent His Messenger with guidance and the religion of truth to manifest it over all religion, although those who associate others with Allah dislike it Ibn ’Umar (RAA) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 

“He who imitates any people (in their actions) is considered to be one of them.”

Mohammad (pbuh) was raised the best nation for mankind. The nation he raised cannot be led by others than his followers. Therefore, Muslim is not allowed to imitate non-Muslim in the religious-based habits, customs or festivals.

1. The prohibited imitation of non-Muslims.
2. The necessity of recognizing others and the benefit of participation.
3. Halloween is a celebration with pagan roots.
4. Do you exchange what is better for what is worse ?
