UMNO SAMBUT MAULUD NABI, PAS TAK SAMBUT, KATA BIDAAH. HABIS CAMNO ??

The Maulud Nabi or Prophet's Birthday was just over last Friday. 

As is usual with the Sunnis and the Shias all over the world, the Prophet's Birthday is becoming another point of contention, hatred, murder and mayhem. 

Yup the Salafis, Wahabis, other Sunnis and Shias fight against each other and among themselves over a birthday party too.

First up is Pakistan.  A Salafi militant group attacked and killed NINE Sunnis who were celebrating the Prophet's Birthday in Peshawar.  Here is the news :

"Nine killed, 37 injured as three terrorists dressed in burkas stormed hostel of Peshawar's Agricultural Training Institute (ATI) Friday morning. . .  .   The attack claimed by Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan. Governor Iqbal Zafar told DawnNews the terrorists prepared a bigger attack.. weapons and explosives recovered . .  He condemned attackers for causing loss of life on Eid Miladun Nabi."

Wow what a birthday party !! Cakes, balloons, bombs, AK47s and stuff !!

And here is how the rest of Pakistan celebrates the Eid Miladun Nabi or Prophet's Birthday :

• Eid Miladun Nabi is being celebrated with religious zeal and fervor on Friday across Pakistan amid tight security and surveillance. 
• Cellular phone services will also remain closed in Karachi, Hyderabad, Quetta and Sukkur.

Mobile phones turned off across Pakistan  ?? Wow! They are such party animals. 

Should we also turn off the mobile phones say in Kuala Lumpur and the Klang Valley for the Prophet's Birthday?  (Mobile phones are used to trigger IED bombs.)

In Malaysia, UMNO has made the Prophet's Birthday or Maulud Nabi a public holiday. 

PAS on the other hand does not celebrate the Maulud Nabi. Some of them would say that celebrating the Prophet's Birthday is a bidaah or innovation. 

Someone suggested that if the Pakatan Harapan bloggers exploit this point alone they can crack up the love affair between PAS and UMNO. Hello kekawan Blogger Pakatan Harapan, pi tanya PAS jika maulud nabi itu bidaah ke atau bukan bidaah?

The Saudi Arabian Wahabis / Salafis  are dead against celebrating the Prophet's Birthday. Here is a video which I hope you can see.  The guy here, obviously a Salafi fellow, explains why the Prophet's Birthday should not be celebrated.

I must agree that the facts of what he is saying are deemed correct by both the Sunnis and the Shiahs.  Meaning, within the context of their own stories, what he is saying makes sense.  (I deem them otherwise. Ha ha ha).
