Ruling concerning celebrating mother's day
Question: Every year we have a holiday on a particular day and it is called Mother's Day. It occurs on March 21. All the people gather and celebrate that day. Is this permissible or forbidden?
Response: Every holiday or celebration that differs from the Sharee'ah celebrations is a newly-invented innovation that was not known during the time of the Pious Predecessors. Furthermore, it may have begun as an imitation of the non-Muslims. Therefore, in addition to it being an innovation, it may also be an act of resembling the enemies of Allaah. The Sharee'ah holidays are well-known among the Muslims. These are the `Eed al-Fitr, `Eed al-Adhha and the weekly `Eed [Fridays]. There is no holiday or festival in Islaam other than those three. Every holiday that is invented besides them is to be rejected as an innovation and falsehood in the Sharee'ah. This is because the Prophet (sal-Allaahu `alayhe wa sallam) said:
((Every deed introduced into our affair that does not belong to it is rejected)).
That is, it is rejected from that person and it will not be accepted by Allaah. Another wording of the hadeeth states:
((Whoever does a deed that is not what our affair is upon, will have it rejected)).
Since that is clear, the holiday that is mentioned by the questioner, known as Mother's Day, is not allowed. It is not allowed to have during such a day any kind of public display and celebration, happiness, giving of presents and so forth. It is obligatory upon a Muslim to have pride and honor in his religion. He should also limit himself to what Allaah and His Messenger (sal-Allaahu `alayhe wa sallam) have restricted this upright religion to. This is the religion that Allaah is pleased to have His servants follow. There can be no addition or subtraction from this religion.
Furthermore, a Muslim should not be a kind of weak person that follows every Tom, ceeb and Harry. Instead, his personality should be that defined by the Law of Allaah, such that he is followed and not a follower, such that he becomes an example and not a disciple. This should be the case because the law of Allaah, praise be to Allaah, is complete and perfect in all aspects. Allaah says in the Qur.aan:
{This day, I have perfected your religion for you, completed My favor upon you and have chosen for you Islaam as your religion}, [Soorah al-Maa.idah, Aayah 3].
Furthermore, the mother has much more right than to have just one day in the year as a celebration for her. In fact, the woman has a right upon her children, that they will care for her, look after her, obey her in anything which is not sinful, during all times and at all places.
