Fatwa Authority Clarifies Mawlid Sweets Purchase
The Egyptian Dar Al-Ifta clarified that purchasing and exchanging Mawlid al-Nabi sweets is lawful and considered a commendable practice that expresses joy over the birth of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and his family). It has no connection to innovation or idol worship. They explained that showing happiness on this occasion, whether by buying or sharing sweets among family and friends, falls within permissible and recommended acts and reflects love and reverence for the Prophet. Claims that deem this tradition forbidden are not supported by any authentic religious evidence. They referenced scholars’ opinions, including the celebrated scholar Jalal al-Din al-Suyuti, who emphasized that expressing happiness during Mawlid through feeding and celebrating is an act of gratitude to Allah for His blessings.
