About This Book:
The book begins by looking into the mysterious origins of Christmas. These ancient celebrations were generally centered on the birth of a deity or goddess and were accompanied by gift-giving and feasts. Moving on, the author discusses Muslims' faith in Jesus Christ. Jesus is seen as a prophet chosen by God to guide humanity in Islam. The faith recognizes his miraculous birth from a virgin as well as his great deeds. Muslims say that the Jesus is not the Son of God and they said Jesus is never punished through the crucifixion method The author offers a sensible way to Muslims' treatment of Christmas. Because of its pagan origins, he cautions against celebrating the occasion. Nonetheless, he underlines the significance of treating people who do celebrate it with respect and tolerance. Muslims might show their appreciation by exchanging presents with Christian acquaintances or attending Christmas festivities. The book concludes with a striking reminder of the importance of following Islamic beliefs. They things that Muslims need to focus on following the teaching of the Prophet Muhammad PBUH rather than focusing on the issues of Non-Muslims cultural activities 
The word ‘Christmas’ means ‘mass of Christ’ which later became shortened to ‘Christ-mass’. It was the Roman Catholic Church who spread the term among other Christian denominations and non-Christians. So where did the Catholic Church get the celebration from? It is not in the New Testament, and certainly not in the Old Testament. The 1911 edition of Catholic Encyclopedia itself states, “Christmas was not among the earliest festivals of the church. The first evidence of the feast comes from Egypt… Pagan customs centring around the month of January gravitated to Christmas.” This book provides a short but valuable discussion that looks at non-Muslim festivals and the Muslim belief in Jesus in the light of the Islamic texts.
