Islam in Perspective
Prophet’s birthday celebration ‘sinful’
RIYADH: ARAB NEWS | Published — Saturday 3 January 2015


Grand Mufti Sheikh Abdul Aziz Al-Asheikh has warned against celebrating the birthday of the Prophet (peace be upon him), saying that it is a superstitious practice that was illegally added to the religion.
“It is a bida (a sinful religious innovation) that crept into Islam after the first three centuries when the companions and successors of the companions lived.”
Instead, it is obligatory for Muslims to follow the Prophet’s teachings as contained in the Sunnah, the sheikh said in his Friday congregational sermon at the Imam Turki bin Abdullah mosque in Riyadh.
The sheikh said that those who urge others to celebrate the birthday of the Prophet are evil and corrupt.
 “The true love of the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) is manifested by following in his footsteps and supporting his Sunnah ... that is how the love for the Prophet (pbuh) is expressed.”
He said Almighty Allah has said: “Say: ‘If you do love Allah, follow me: Allah will love you and forgive your sins.’” Muslims have a duty to believe in the Prophet (pbuh) as the servant and messenger of Allah, who was sent as a guide to the entire universe, Al-Asheikh said.
It is the duty of Muslims to love and respect him. They should also defend him against those who misinterpret his teachings, the atheists who deny him, and those who abuse or mock him. These are the duties of Muslims who truly love the Prophet (pbuh), the sheikh said.
He said that Almighty Allah states in the Holy Qur’an: “Say: If it be that your fathers, your sons, your brothers, your mates, or your kindred; the wealth that you have gained; the commerce in which you fear a decline; or the dwellings in which you delight, are dearer to you than Allah, or His messenger, or the striving in His cause, then wait until Allah brings about His decision, and Allah guides not the rebellious.” Here

Quote:

" One of Nelly's most well-known tracks, Hot in Herre, asks women to take off all their clothes.

“The Dec. 14 concert is part of the Saudi kingdom’s $2.7 billion effort to revamp its moribund entertainment and leisure industries, a small but key element of 32-year-old Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s ambitious reform and modernization agenda.”

"It's amazing to have your music transcend and be accepted globally, not just by where you come from but also by people who have never met you or seen you before," the 42-year-old Nelly told reporters before his performance.

"This experience is probably bigger for me than it is for you guys, so it feels great to be here," he added.

Saudi Valentine's Day Not Mawlid!


Saudi cleric endorses Valentine's Day as 'positive event'
AFP/Riyadh
Filed on February 15, 2018
A prominent Saudi cleric on Wednesday endorsed Valentine's Day calling it a "positive social event" that was not linked to religion.

The comment from Ahmed Qassim Al Ghamdi, former chief of the religious police in the holy city of Makkah, comes as 32-year-old Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman pursues a far-reaching liberalisation drive that has upended years of conservative tradition.

"It is a positive social event and congratulating people for it is not against sharia (law)," Ghamdi told Saudi-owned Al Arabiya television.
"It is an act of kindness to share greetings on Western national and social holidays, including Valentine's Day, exchange red roses with others, as long as it is towards peaceful people who do not share animosity or are being at war with Muslims."

In recent years, Saudi Arabia launched a series of reforms. Prince Mohammed, who has vowed to return the country to "moderate Islam", has further cut back the political role of clerics in a historic reordering of the Saudi state.

Florists openly sold red roses and Valentine's Day memorabilia in cities such as Jeddah on Wednesday.

Fashion show in Medina sparks Saudi anger on Twitter
March 7, 2018 at 4:12 am   | Published in: Middle East, News, Saudi Arabia, Twitter Trends

 “Wine has become a mere drink, gambling became a game of luck and singing became an art, bribery became drinking a coffee and promiscuity became civilisation, make up became elegance, nudity became freedom and adultery became a transient relationship?. 
All while the promotion of virtue has become fanaticism and the prohibition of vice has become backwardness. 
Satan has been frank with us, he has given us a fashion show in the city of the Prophet.”

Muslim cleric deals out the deck at 
first-ever Saudi Arabia card tournament


Thousands of Saudis flocked to attend the first day of the Baloot Championship on Wednesday, which is offering a total prize of one million Saudi riyals ($270,000) for the top four teams, state-run SPA reported.
The four-day event, which was organised by the General Entertainment Authority, has over 12,000 players taking part in the country's first official card game competition.
Sheikh Adel al-Kalbani, a senior Muslim cleric, attended the opening day of the event – a move likely taken by authorities to dampen criticism from conservatives.
"Unfortunately I don't know how to play Baloot but I wish everyone luck and I hope there is good sportsmanship," Kalbani told players.


Saudi Arabia has kicked off its first-ever card game tournament in the capital Riyadh (Najd-Horn of Satan) with a popular cleric in attendance as authorities try to boost local sports and entertainment.

Black Panther to become first film shown in Saudi Arabian cinemas in 35 years





According to reports, the Marvel blockbuster will receive a gala premiere in Riyadh on 18 April (2018) as part of a deal done by US theatre chain AMC that will see 40 cinemas open in Saudi cities over the next five years.
Saudi Arabia had some cinemas in the 1970s but its powerful clerics closed them, reflecting rising Islamist influence throughout the Arab region at the time. Here

Saudis flock to ‘Black Panther’ as first public cinema premieres

^Video on FB: Here

RIYADH — Dozens of Saudi families flocked to the movies on Friday for the first time in almost 40 years, two days after US movie giant AMC unveiled the Kingdom’s debut theater in Riyadh.

Tickets for the American superhero movie “Black Panther”went on sale online at midnight for SR75 ($20) and sold out within minutes. Excited cinemagoers posed for selfies in the foyer and stood in line for popcorn.
“It’s like a historical event that happened here,”said Mana, an usher at the movie theater in the King Abdullah Financial District, a new development in northern Riyadh.
Before the main feature, the audience watched a short on the history of film, a clip from a US television interview with Crown Prince Muhammad Bin Salman, and an advertisement for Coca-Cola featuring women driving.
The choice of movie was not random.
“It is the story of a young prince who transforms a great nation,”Adam Aron, chief executive of the theater operator AMC Entertainment Holding said at a VIP screening on Wednesday. “That might sound familiar to a few of you.”

To serve a population of more than 32 million, most of whom are under the age of 30, the authorities plan to set up around 350 cinemas with over 2,500 screens by 2030, which they hope will attract nearly $1 billion in annual ticket sales.Here

Question:

Why does Saudi Arabia permit celebrating the commemoration of Mu-hammed bin Abdul Wahhaab in a conference, paying hundreds of thousands for it, and it is not allowed for us to celebrate the commemoration of the mawlid of the Messenger of Allah -Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam-?

Who is more deserving of that: the Messenger of Allah -Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam- or Mu-hammed bin Abdel Wahhab?
This is a question that some of the people of knowledge of Damascus ask, please give us an answer.
---
Answer: Quote: “The week of shaikh Mu-hammed bin Abdul Wahhaab was only an academic conference held in 1400 Hijri, under the supervision of the Islamic University of Imam Mu-hammed bin Sa’ud in Riyadh, it consisted for a number of researches regarding the dawah of Shaikh Mu-hammed bin Abdul Wahhaab in terms of its emergence and its affects, and the doubts created surrounding it with its refutation.
In addition to that, the works of Shaikh Mu-hammed bin Abdul Wahhaab were printed after compiling and organizing it.

The difference between that conference and the celebration of the Prophetic Mawlid is obvious, as the week of shaikh Mu-hammed bin Abdul Wahhaab was not an act of worship itself, what was meant by it is to inform about this dawah and to do justice to its reviver; also, the week of the shaikh does not reoccur or return as is the case with the ones who celebrate the Prophetic Mawlid, tending it every year; while this week was held about a quarter century ago, and has ended.  [Here]

Saudi Arabia held several spooky events this month as part of it's three-month-long "Riyadh Season", a series of cultural events mostly aimed at tourists.
One event had giant demonic statues floating down the streets of the capital, with techno music blaring and flashing lights.
-----------------------------------------
Quote: "Tickets have sold out for the “The Horror Festival” on its last day. To those who have been, tell us what your opinion on it is? #RiyadhSeason
But many social media users were unimpressed, questioning how a pagan holiday could be celebrated in the birthplace of Islam, using statues that they felt went against Islamic principles:

[…]

Quote: "The statues were eventually destroyed, with one Twitter user suggesting that Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman had ordered the demolition.”
