Christmas is a festival of major Shirk where Christians worship 'Ēsā who they call Jesus. They make him into a God and elevate him far above Allāh, Who sent him. The name "Christmas" linguistically, is made up of two words, "Christ", which comes from the Greek word, "Kristos" meaning "annointed" and "Mass". This Mass is a ceremony resembling cannibalism which they perform regularly in their churches, especially now at Christmas time. A priest lifts up a cup of wine and says, "The blood of Jesus, shed for our sins." and then drinks from it before passing it around the congregation, until they all take a sip of this wine, now called the blood of 'Eesaa (which came out of his body when he was crucified). Then the priest takes some bread, lifts it up, and says, "The body of Jesus, broken for us." He breaks the bread, eats from it, then everyone else takes a bite of 'Ēsā's broken body, killed for them and swallows it down. Christians in their distorted and evil 'Aqīdah, say that 'Ēsā was the sacrificial lamb sent by Allāh, (and he was also Allāh Himself) who came to earth in the form of a human to be slain for them and his blood cleanses them from all their sins and they now go to heaven because 'Ēsā (or God accordingto them) died on the cross for them! ولا حولى ولا قوة إلا بالله! There is no power not might except with Allāh! Allāh ﷻ said: {وَقَوْلِهِمْ إِنَّا قَتَلْنَا ٱلْمَسِيحَ عِيسَى ٱبْنَ مَرْيَمَ رَسُولَ ٱللهِ وَمَا قَتَلُوهُ وَمَا صَلَبُوهُ} "And because of what they said in boasting, "We killed 'Ēsā, the Maseeh, son of Maryam." But they neither killed him or crucified him."' [An Nisā' 4:157] As we well know, the Jews came to arrest 'Ēsā but Allāh rose him up into heaven before they could reach him and they captured another man, thinking him to be 'Ēsā and crucified him instead. Was 'Ēsā born on the 25th December? Nobody knows exactly when he was born. Many Christian scholars come to the conclusion that he took birth in the spring time which agrees with a song or carol they sing with the wording, "When shepherds watched their flocks by night..." One of their Christmas fables tells them that some shepherds received a divine message that 'Ēsā had been born on earth and this was while they were keeping awake out in the fields at night, guarding their sheep. However, if 'Ēsā had really been born in December, which is winter time, these shepherds would have been at home keeping warm in their beds and their sheep would have been in their pens, huddled together to keep warm in the winter nights. So why did they make 25th December to be his birthday? 25th of this month, falls close to the shortest day of the year, 21st December. When the early Christian missionaries came to Britain and Northern Europe, they found people worshipping at this time of the year as they were looking forward to the coming of longer and soon to be warmer days. So to trick the pagan people living then into worshipping 'Ēsā instead of the coming of a change in seasons, they put 'Ēsā's birthday at that time. People also worshipped evergreen trees and see how they now have Christmas trees in their homes, places of work, shops etc. And the people of the past also worshipped stars, angels and jinn, so you see how Christians now put stars on top of their Christmas trees, or an angel or a fairey (jinn). All these things are symbols of polytheism and disbelief. Another trick Christian missionaries used to get people to worship 'Ēsā as well as his mother Maryam who they call Mary, was to paint or draw a halo which is a coloured circular ring behind the heads of whoever they wanted worshipped. The pagan people they were preaching to, used to worship the sun, so to get them to worship 'Ēsā or saints or Maryam (who the Catholics call the Mother of God!!), they painted these yellow halos around their heads.
