00:00The question is very simple and the question is like I'm used to give gifts or cards over Christmas to my colleagues of different faiths anyway.
00:14Then what happens this time is sometimes knowledge gets worse on you.
00:21I gave a card and gift to some of my colleagues and then I received a message.
00:34I'm feeling guilty because one of my secretary gave a card and gift. Another secretary was waiting when I received this message.
00:44I'm still in my bed anyway. Can I give it to her or not? This is not for me. This is a question for everyone.
00:54It's a university student. The other question is that I'm just asking because the other message came.
01:03You say, happy Christmas, happy new year. You're doing good. I said, my God, what am I doing here?
01:11Because when I went to my hospital on Christmas Day, I was on duty. I just entered into my ward and everyone, all my staff said to me, happy Christmas to you doctor.
01:23I said, oh my God, I have a message in my mobile. What am I going to say now? I said, same to you.
01:29So I did not reply the way I was used to do, which I feel like. This is not the right thing to do.
01:35But I want a clarity for these youngsters. So please guide us, tell us what should we do.
01:41Because we love our followers around. We respect them. They respect us. We have to acknowledge them.
01:47Yes. Thank you. Thank you for your question. Yes.
01:51So you shouldn't be, when you just said that you have to listen to Shepard Islam.
01:55Yeah. He used to travel from one city to different city on a motorbike to listen to him.
02:00So you should not get confused on this kind of an ignorant statements made by other people.
02:06That's very clear. There's nothing wrong with it, in appreciating and becoming a part of Allah's happiness.
02:16So it's an Islamic way of life. And it gives a very Christmas or exchange gifts with each other.
02:25So it's always to increase love and respect for each other in society.
02:31And absolutely there is nothing wrong with it, especially celebrating Christmas.
02:38If some of the people want to celebrate, celebrate it, that's a different thing.
02:42But our brother is living here, they are celebrating Christmas.
02:46It's like it's the birth of Jesus Christ. And Jesus Christ, it's not just a prophet of Christians,
02:52but he's a prophet of Muslims as well. So it's like celebrating,
02:57Namibu Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, as we celebrated for our beloved prophet.
03:01So celebrating Christians, or being happy, or at least greeting other brothers from Christian community.
03:08For on Christmas, it's like greeting and being happy on the birth of the prophet Jesus,
03:16who's the prophet of Islam as well. And then New Year's, just New Year coming,
03:20I'm going to talk about January. This is the topic I was discussing in my talk.
03:27That this is kind of a thought and a school of thought and mindset,
03:33which has pushed the whole Muslim society towards this kind of a history and downfall,
03:39this kind of an ignorant opinion and mindset. So we have to come out of it.
03:45And we are always propagator of such moderate and progressive thoughts.
03:50You are at right place.
