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.

My popularity here is not of a resident Mullah. But you should refer original sources for Muslims migration to Ethiopia in 7th century and how they were treated by king and population. For your information Surah e Maryam was recited in Najjashi’s court in the presence of Christian priests and did you consider Arab ambassador a fool who particularly asked Najjashi to ask Muslims to tell their belief about Hazrat Isa (AS). he knew that Muslims belief was in direct conflict with that of Najjashi and his priests (at that time). Najjashi might have converted in future, but not at the time of Makkahs delegation going to him for hand over of refugee Muslims.
