Grand Mufti rules on Prophet's Mawlid 2026
The ruling on celebrating the Prophet Muhammad's (peace be upon him) birthday is that it is permissible in Islam. It is considered a way of expressing joy and love for the Prophet, and it falls under permissible customs that vary in their manifestations across different communities. These can include increasing prayers and blessings upon the Prophet, giving charity, maintaining family ties, and bringing happiness to others. It is also noted that the Prophet (peace be upon him) used to observe the day of his birth fasting as a form of gratitude to God. The practice of buying and presenting Mawlid sweets does not conflict with Shariah, provided it is free from any prohibited elements. It is regarded as one of the ways of celebrating and expressing love within Egyptian society.
