Reality of Halloween

Halloween: Not Fun nor Funny!

antihalloweenAs Muslims in America we often find ourselves confronted with difficult choices at holiday time. We feel the pressure of going to the Christmas party or leaving a tooth for the tooth fairy. With Halloween coming we are tempted to get the costume, the candies, the Pumpkins and all the fun trappings of the night.

But wait! What are we promoting? As Ahmadis we signed on to some conditions. In fact condition of Baiat number 6 says that we “shall refrain from following un-islamic customs”. So is Halloween an Islamic custom?

Muslims don’t beg
We don’t dress up as ghosts or Spiderman (at least not publicly)
And we certainly don’t believe that dead people walk the neighborhood at night.
