Fatwa on Mawlid books and celebration methods
The Egyptian Dar Al-Ifta clarifies that reading books about the Mawlid (the Prophet's Birthday) and the Prophetic biography, in addition to reciting praises and poetry, are legitimate acts of worship that have been established and practiced by scholars for centuries. They are considered an important means of commemorating the night of the Prophet's birth. The organization emphasizes that throughout history, the majority of scholars have obligated and legislated these acts, based on Islamic legal evidence. It is also noted that celebrating this occasion can include acts such as feeding the needy, fasting, prayer, recitation of the Quran, Dhikr (remembrance of God), and reading books about the life of the Prophet. These practices serve as expressions of joy and remembrance of the Prophet Muhammad's (peace be upon him) birth, while encouraging gaining knowledge of his biography and drawing closer to Allah through worship and good deeds.
