We are allowed to partake of their feasts and celebrations so long as you stay away from their specifically religious rituals, and so long as you are clear in your mind that Christmas has nothing to do with the original teaching of Jesus (peace and blessings be upon him).

While remaining steadfast to your beliefs about Jesus, you are allowed to join them in their feasts in order to reciprocate kindness with kindness. By doing so, you may even be helping them remove their misconceptions about Islam being a fanatical religion. So go ahead and participate in their feasts, and let them know the true image of Islam.

Whosoever congratulates someone with disobedience, sin or disbelief shall fall under God’s Wrath.

So, in what sense would a Muslim congratulate a Christian with Jesus alleged crucifixion or directing prayer and worship to objects other than God like Jesus, Mary, crosses, images, icons, etc..?!

This is even worse than congratulation with drinking alcohol, killing innocent soul, committing adultery, etc..

And how will a Muslim invite those misguided people to the truth while he himself expresses his agreement, gladness and congratulation with their acts of disbelief?!

Unfortunately, many Muslims do not realize the ugliness of this act, may Allah forgive us all.

There is no “problem” unless you want to have one really. The word “kafir” is unbeliever, a person who does not believe in Islam. I cannot call you a Muslim (believer), neither would you agree on me calling you one if are not a Muslim.

As for the world caring for Islam, it is there problem if they want to get brainwashed by there governments and media (very trustworthy sources on Islam and weapons of mass destruction
lol) and then claim the baised and anger against Islam as there own research (gullible).

gul·li·ble [gúlləb'l]
adjective
easily duped: tending to trust and believe people, and therefore easily tricked or deceived

The civilisation of those you consider as ‘kafir’ and kuffur’ are more amazing and dignified than that of Islam. That’s why the world does not really care to such things or would listen to Islam.

The world civilisation is now led by the West, Jews, and East Easians (Japanese, Chinese). None of them are muslims.
Only this what the world is now need to see :)

If He is so, then no Islamic council is qualified to dictate to Muslims what is halal and what is haraam, for only Allah knows best. So why don’t you guys practise what you preach and walk the talk?

Maybe you should read this article on Islam Online which contradicts this article.

Think about it.. how are Muslims imitating non-Muslims by wishing some goodwill upon them during their festivals or any other time? Doesn’t the Quran tell us to wish goodwill for others?

Praying with them and following their religious customs is of course imitating them and is haraam. But wishing them? You should also be careful to use the word “consensus”. It is a very vague word when used without a list of reputable sources which that word is referring to.
