Скачать или смотреть Is New Year's Halal? Fireworks, Parties & Saying "Happy New Year" | AlMaghrib Podcast

New Year's Eve is celebrated everywhere — from Times Square to Muslim-majority countries. It's truly a global phenomenon. But as Muslims, can we participate? Is saying ""Happy New Year"" allowed? What about fireworks, parties, and resolutions?

In this focused discussion, Shaykh Waleed Basyouni — President of AlMaghrib Institute and senior member of AMJA's fatwa committee — gives clear, practical guidance on how Muslims should approach New Year's celebrations.

You'll learn:

→ Why New Year's is fundamentally different from religious holidays
→ Can you say ""Happy New Year""?
→ Can Muslims attend New Year's parties and work dinners?
→ Is buying personal fireworks halal or haram?
→ What makes a New Year's celebration cross into haram territory
→ Why New Year's resolutions are perfectly Islamic
→ How to distinguish between cultural and religious practices

Shaykh Waleed breaks down exactly where the boundaries are: what's prohibited, what's permissible, and what principles should guide your decisions. This podcast is about understanding that New Year's, unlike Christmas or other religious holidays, has no religious connotation and is simply a cultural marker of time.

Whether you're wondering if you can wish your coworkers ""Happy New Year,"" planning a family dinner, or questioning whether that fireworks purchase is halal, this conversation provides the clarity you need.
