Re: Eid Milad
The issue we have is that what we consider as bidah is considered acceptable by someone else. Every sect considers itself righteous and the rest as innovating things. Most of the noise regarding bidah’s come from salafis, you just need to closely observe them. Some times I feel that each and every thing we do is a bidah according to some one else. I dont agree with many things that happen on the mazars but I dont judge, I simply dont do those acts which I dont consider right.
Anyways, if the motive is to learn about other sects its fine but if the motive is to stoke sectarian tensions then we already have plenty of molvis doing that. I have no problem with people propagating what they consider right, but doing that with a self righteous tone just pushes others away. The attitude of I am right and you are wrong has destroyed us, it starts from declaring others as biddatees and goes towards mushrikeen and kafirs.
