History of the holiday

So, Muhammad is a well-known personage in the world’s history and many people from different countries heard his name at least once a life. And really this personage played a big role while alive in the lives of his native people. He lived many centuries ago, but even nowadays people remember him and treat as a saint person. It is an interesting fact though that for a couple of first centuries his birthday hasn’t been celebrated at all. This holiday has been first offered and begun being celebrated in the far 12th century that is why in comparison to other ancient Muslim holidays it is not so old.

But the age of the holiday evokes questions from the believers. Some people accepted the holiday and sincerely celebrate it, but there are other people, who think that as the holiday hasn’t existed from the very beginning of their history, it is not a correct holiday and it has no right to existence. They say that Koran has nothing about this holiday, that is why it was not allowed to create such a holiday after some time.

Muhammad has been treated as sent by God, and he was the last of such missioners. That is why at his birthday people usually thank God for sending them such a person, they are happy to have someone like hi in their world and also thank God for this “present”. His followers widely promote joining them and celebrating the holiday, because Muhammad taught people to love each other, and then every of us will meet the one, whom he or she loves. That is why all these people exactly know, what day Mawlid al-Nabi in 2025 is.

The are, where this holiday is celebrated, is rather huge. For the first time, the celebration began from Syria. Then the holiday was spread through Algeria, Tunisia, other parts of Syria, Morocco, Egypt and other countries, where Islam is the main religion. It is also an interesting fact that Pakistan marks this holiday as an official one and people there have three days off work to have an opportunity to celebrate it fully.
