BTW 7th Century Christians of Ethiopia were more tolerant that they gave refuge to Muslim refugees of Makkah and denied to handover them to pagan Arabs even after listening to recitation of Surah e Maryam:

“And make mention of Mary in the Book, when she withdrew from her people unto a place towards the east, and secluded herself from them; and We sent unto her Our Spirit, and it appeared unto her in the likeness of a perfect man. She said: I take refuge from you in the Infinitely Good, if any piety you have. He said: I am none other than a messenger from your Lord that I may bestow on you a son most pure. She said: How can there be for me a son, when no man has touched me, nor am I unchaste? He said: Even so shall it be; your Lord says: It is easy for Me. That We may make him a sign for mankind and a mercy from Us; and it is a thing ordained.” (19:16-21)

We just claim to be thekedars of a religion named Islam (peace), otherwise, our acts are far beyond to promote peace, when we don’t have a room for wishing Christians an event which is part of our scripture.

I did not want to reply in this again at all but i have a responsibility

I wont make a strong statement but you should check the details of the belief of king of Najran, if memory serves me right he claimed Isa Alaihis Salam did not Himself claim He Alaihis Salam was son of god. The kings janaza has also been said to have read by RasoolAllah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Ahlihi wa Sallam. This is cited as reason why ghaiba janaza is not allowed for us. Details are from memory only

This suggests that is why this particular king was chosen and that he was not mushrik, and may have become Muslim.

The position of jurisprudence that wishing merry christmas is prohibited seems across the board accepted, (other then what i have already mentioned)

Be careful with trying to research jurisprudence by yourself. It is the mistake wahabis make.

You are very popular on the board and as such have a responsibility not to misguide those trusting in you.
