Celebrating birthdays is not allowed
what is the evidence on celebrating birthdays,is it allowed in islam???
The evidence in the Qur’aan and Sunnah indicates that celebrating birthdays is a kind of bid’ah or innovation in religion, which has no basis in the pure sharee’ah. It is not permitted to accept invitations to birthday celebrations, because this involves supporting and encouraging bid’ah. Allaah, may He be glorified and exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):
“Or have they partners with Allaah (false gods) who have instituted for them a religion which Allaah has not allowed…?” [al-Shoora 42:21]“Then We have put you (O Muhammad) on a plain way of (Our) commandment. So follow that, and follow not the desires of those who know not. Verily, they can avail you nothing against Allaah (if He wants to puish you). Verily, the zaalimoon (wrongdoers) are awliyaa’ (protectors, helpers, etc.) to one another, but Allaah is the Wali (Protector, Helper) of the muttaqoon (pious).” [al-Jaathiyah 45:18-19]“Follow what has been sent down unto you from your Lord, and follow not any awliyaa’ (protectors, helpers, etc.) besides Him. Little do you remember!” [al-A’raaf 7:3]According to saheeh reports, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever does something that is a not part of this matter of ours (i.e., Islam) will have it rejected” (reported by Muslim in his
Saheeh); and “The best of speech is the Book of Allaah and the best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). The most evil of things are those which have been newly invented (in religion), and every innovation is a going astray.” There are many other ahaadeeth that convey the same meaning.Besides being bid’ah and having no basis in sharee’ah, these birthday celebrations also involve imitation of the Jews and Christians in their birthday celebrations. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, warning us against following their ways and traditions: “You would follow the ways of those who came before you step by step, to such an extent that if they were to enter a lizard’s hole, you would enter it too.” They said, “O Messenger of Allaah, (do you mean) the Jews and Christians?” He said, “Who else?” (Reported by al-Bukhaari and Muslim). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) also said: “Whoever imitates a people is one of them.”(/font>

assalaamu alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakaatuh, dear sister in islam, i want you to know that its is un-islamic to celebrate birth days,
what every age a man is going to spend on earth has already been written while he was in the womb of his mother as can be seen from the following hadith..
Abdullah ibn Mas’ud reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, narrated to us, for he is the truthful and the trusted, “
Verily, the creation of each one of you is brought together in his mother’s womb for forty days as a drop, then he is a clot for a similar period, then a morsel for a similar period, then there is sent to him the angel who blows the spirit into him and he is commanded regarding four matters: to write down his provision, his life span, his deeds, and whether he is happy or miserable. By Allah other than whom there is no God, one of you acts like the people of Paradise until he is but an arm’s length from it, and what is written overtakes him so he acts like the people of Hellfire and he enters it. Verily, one of you acts like the people of Hellfire until he is but an arm’s length from it, and what is written overtakes him so he acts like the people of Paradise and he enters it.”

Muttafaqun Alayhi (authenticity agreed upon) according to Al-Bukhari and Muslim
from the above hadith,it is clear that man has a designated time to spend on earth, and as such if he is celebrating his discounts as birthdays, that means he is celebrating his closeness to his grave because once a man advances in age, he is termed to be using up his life span and getting closer to death.
the sahabah of the holy prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallah never took part in this celebration neither theirs nor that of the prophet muhammad.
All idea came from the kuffar and the prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam had said that we should not imitate the people in an un-islamic acts as could be seen in the followig hadith….
Ibn Umar reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “
Whoever imitates a people is one of them.”

I want to believe that we all know the genesis of birthday celebrations, of course its not from an islamic origin but from the western counterparts.
may Allah make it easy for us to avoid bid’ah and be steadfast in adopting the sunnah of our beloved prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam
Kusherehekea birthday ni western culture!
Noeli ni western culture!
Mwaka mpya ni western culture!
