Practicing Muslims do not celebrate birthdays and only those who are westernized may celebrate it! Millions of laymen all over the world denounce it and refuse to celebrate it. Wearing trousers and pants was wrong in the beginning but when it became the norm for Muslims worldwide, it became permissible.

Birthdays is part of their culture and belief and that’s why they celebrate Christmas. This is not found in our religion.

I kno tht following the disbelievers is haram. But we wear shirts and pants knowing tht they r from disbelievers but we wear it becoz not only the disbelievers wear it but every1 does no problem. But the prob is when it comes to celebrating birthdays etc. we say its haram but y is it haram, not only the disbelievers do it but now every1 does ,& then if u say it originated from the disbelievers then shirts and pants hav also originatd from them but they r not haram. Plz clarify.
