As a Christian, I wanted to step in and agree with SisterJennifer in that, the celebration of birthdays does indeed trace its roots to pagan practices and that is why we as Christians are not supposed to take part in such celebrations. (That includes such things as Christmas and Easter) There are particular verses in the Bible that warns the believer against observing particular days, months, times, and years that have nothing to do with Christian faith.


So the celebration of birdays being forbidden is something we (both muslim and christian) can agree upon. B)

Faris Mee, glad you asked. The verses can be found in the book of Galatians, chapter four, verses 1-11. I'll reproduce them here from the King James translation.


Gal 4:1 Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;


Gal 4:2 But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.


Gal 4:3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:


Gal 4:4 But when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,


Gal 4:5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.


Gal 4:6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.


Gal 4:7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.


Gal 4:8 Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods.


Gal 4:9 But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?


Gal 4:10 <b>Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.</b>


Gal 4:11 I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labor in vain.


Underlining and bold are mine for emphasis. I hope this helps Faris.
