Traditionally, the main holidays of Muslims are two:

Uraza-Bayram-"Feast of Disagreement"
Kurban Bayram - "Feast of sacrifice"

And, wondering: “Is it possible to celebrate the holidays belonging to another faith and take part in them?” The answer will often sound: "Not". The religion of Islam advises to be not involved in the fact that it undermines the foundations and has nothing to do with it. For example: help and participation in the holidays of the incorrect "atheists and representatives of other religions." Read more:

"Who is likened to some people, he himself is one of them".
The basis of religion is monotheism. It is believed that the celebration of the New Year to dissenters is connected with the worship of a kind of idols - “Santa Claus, the Snow Maiden, the Christmas tree”, which is unacceptable for Muslims.
"Worship Allah, for you have no other true deity worthy of worship".

At the same time, there are such hadiths:

"Give each other gifts in order to strengthen a sense of respect between you."

There is nothing wrong if on the eve of the coming year, the Muslim will make loved ones pleasant. People of this faith gather in the circle of relatives, prepare for everyone a small gift, and spend time happily.

"Truly, things are evaluated only by intentions".

Is it not a good plan to congratulate friends and acquaintances, work colleagues? Placing attention on the eve of the New Year, you show respect for loved ones with the wish of good and happiness. The ability to please family members is encouraged in Islam, and not condemned.

Why should Muslims celebrate, celebrate the New Year?

In the information field for Muslims you can encounter a ban on meeting the New Year's celebration. This is argued by the fact that in ancient times it belonged to pagan ones, and in Islam they do not celebrate such holidays. But it should be borne in mind that this night is not celebrated as pagan, there is no worship of the Christmas tree and other characters in the celebration. This is just an integral New Year's symbolism.

Motivation not to hold a holiday is an indication of unreasonable waste of money, time. View prohibited programs with dancing and music, unworthy behavior. Gluttony and intake of alcohol is unworthy for Muslims.

It is worth knowing: Living in secular states, modern Muslims still celebrate the New Year, visit corporate parties and go to visit.

But, if the family, especially the older generation, does not celebrate, you should refrain young, so as not to insult religious feelings. There is no mention and prohibition in the Qur'an regarding this holiday. Therefore, there is no canonical ban on the celebration of the New Year. But Christmas is a religious holiday, and it is impossible to celebrate it for Muslims.

It is better to turn to common sense. The calendar year simply ends, this is no religious values.
