Detailed explanation-1: -In general, Muslims observe two key holidays: Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha. The dates for these two holidays are determined by tradition according to the Islamic or Hijra calendar, which is based on the lunar year. 3 The dates for Muslim holidays change every year.
Detailed explanation-2: -Many Muslims feel that by celebrating, or even acknowledging the Christmas holiday, they are going against their monotheistic belief. Jesus, son of Mary (peace be upon him) known as Isa ibn, Maryam is a revered prophet in Islam. Like Christianity, Muslims also believe Jesus (peace be upon him) to be the Messiah.
Detailed explanation-3: -Another person underlined how Diwali is ‘haram’ (forbidden)in Islam. He emphasised, “People like you must be celebrating, we believe in Allah and His Messenger, it is haram to adopt the festival and character of other religion. I hope you understand, May Allah guides you Aameen!!”
Detailed explanation-4: -On December 5, Muslims celebrate Ashura. Sunnis, the largest group of Muslims, remember that the Prophet Mohammad fasted in solidarity with Jews who were observing Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement.
