Indian islamists issue fatwa against birthday celebrations

[✡ Hindu Zionist ॐ]

In a fresh fatwa, Islamic seminary Darul Uloom Deboand has said that Islam does not permit celebrating birthdays.

Responding to a query posed by a woman, the country's biggest Islamic seminary observed that the tradition to celebrate birthdays was started by the Jews and Christians, but Islam does not permit this practice.

The Darul Uloom Deoband has in recent days issued edicts declaring that working in banks and opting for an insurance policy was against the tenets of Islam, sparking a debate. The seminary had also decreed that it was illegal according to the Sharia or Islamic law for a woman to work and for a family to accept a woman's earnings.

Leading Islamic body Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind's spokesman Abdul Hameed Nomani had maintained that fatwas should not be generalised and should be seen in the context in which they have been issued.

"People must read between the lines and not generalise the fatwas," Nomani had said.

Muslims are much more into celebrating death (like making martyrs out of terrorists) than celebrating life.

This makes sense.   I heard Muhammad hated celebrating his wife's birthday.  With all the 'pin the tale of the donkey' and the pinata wacking.

You cut down all the enjoyments of life, then wonder why the kids are tying a bomb and blowing themselves up
They are all probably getting bored out of their minds

We must issue a FATWAH AGAINST ISSUING FATWAHS. Any cleric which issues a fatwah should immediately be sentenced to death and the sentence carried out by whomever has the ability to execute said cleric by either a bullet to the head, hanging, or stoning... I think the clerics would think twice before issuing a fatwah if it meant their lives would come to a quick end...

Death to all Mullahs and Imams who issue fatwahs against innocent people...

Infested by the prophets of their own death, how can they celebrate their birthdays.

I think it should be the duty of the muslamics to follow such progressive bakwas of the fitwas.   

[Zelhar]

Muslims much prefer to celebrate deathdays.

A fatwa is an incitement to murder.
At the very least they should be put in jail but I prefer the deathpenalty. Perhaps by honourrape untill the desired effect has been established.
