Hadith



حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ قَدِمَ أُنَاسٌ مِنْ عُكْلٍ أَوْ عُرَيْنَةَ، فَاجْتَوَوُا الْمَدِينَةَ، فَأَمَرَهُمُ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِلِقَاحٍ، وَأَنْ يَشْرَبُوا مِنْ أَبْوَالِهَا وَأَلْبَانِهَا، فَانْطَلَقُوا، فَلَمَّا صَحُّوا قَتَلُوا رَاعِيَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَاسْتَاقُوا النَّعَمَ، فَجَاءَ الْخَبَرُ فِي أَوَّلِ النَّهَارِ، فَبَعَثَ فِي آثَارِهِمْ، فَلَمَّا ارْتَفَعَ النَّهَارُ جِيءَ بِهِمْ، فَأَمَرَ فَقَطَعَ أَيْدِيَهُمْ وَأَرْجُلَهُمْ، وَسُمِرَتْ أَعْيُنُهُمْ، وَأُلْقُوا فِي الْحَرَّةِ يَسْتَسْقُونَ فَلاَ يُسْقَوْنَ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو قِلاَبَةَ فَهَؤُلاَءِ سَرَقُوا وَقَتَلُوا وَكَفَرُوا بَعْدَ إِيمَانِهِمْ، وَحَارَبُوا اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ‏.‏



Narrated Abu Qilaba:

Anas said, "Some people of `Ukl or `Uraina tribe came to Medina and its climate did not suit them. So the Prophet (ﷺ) ordered them to go to the herd of (Milch) camels and to drink their milk and urine (as a medicine). So they went as directed and after they became healthy, they killed the shepherd of the Prophet and drove away all the camels. The news reached the Prophet (ﷺ) early in the morning and he sent (men) in their pursuit and they were captured and brought at noon. He then ordered to cut their hands and feet (and it was done), and their eyes were branded with heated pieces of iron, They were put in 'Al-Harra' and when they asked for water, no water was given to them." Abu Qilaba said, "Those people committed theft and murder, became infidels after embracing Islam and fought against Allah and His Apostle ."

Nobody said Christ was born on the 25th, it is just a day Christians picked to celebrate the birth of Jesus. Yes it was a former paganic holiday but when pagans turned Christians they chose the day which was formerly a celebration of everything vile to celebrate love, one another and the birth of Christ. This is the same way pagans turned their former shrines into churches as a way of exemplifying the dominion of Christ above any other gods in their communities.

By turning the 25th to Christmas, or shrines to churches the former pagans were submitting everything dear to themselves to Christ.

When a demon possessed person is exorcised in the name of Jesus and the person then accepts Christ as his lord and personal savior, the Holy Spirit would enter such a soul irrespective of whether legions of demons where living there before, because the name and blood of Jesus is a sanctifying power. If anything even remotely demonic is sanctified unto Christ, from that moment on it changes and belongs to Jesus.
When the Ark of Covenant was stolen and forcibly taken into Dagon's shrine, the following morning had Dagon fallen face flat. This is because all of the earth and its constituent belongs to God almighty including the days, hours and minutes plus the very materials used in making dagon.
This is why the apostles allowed Christians to eat foods sacrificed unto idols because a believer in Christ is a god on his own. So dedicating 25th to celebrate Jesus is actually giving to God what he already owns. Saying one day belongs to the devil is actually exhalting the devil. What on earth did the devil create to deserve a day? He didn't create anything and has no right to anything. Everything he possesses today he stole and our Christ backed mandate permits us to take all of it back. The earth and its fullness thereof. If care is not taken we would start celebrating Jesus again during Halloween!

My response to the folks who are obsessing about celebrating Christmas or even worshipping on Sunday is simple:

So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. Do not cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks or the church of God. (1 Corinthians 10: 31-32).

If you don't feel comfortable celebrating Christmas then don't celebrate it. But if you feel comfortable using that day as a memorial to remember that the Son of God became the Son of man and came to the earth to save the whole world; then by all means celebrate Christmas and do so without apology!

BOTH YOU AND YOUR BADDY FREEZER ARE VERY STUPID MORONS
exlinkleads:
Have you ever wondered if you are indeed doing the right thing when it concerns Christmas celebration?

Have you ever taken your time to research about what you have been celebrating right from the day you were born? Have you questioned if Jesus Christ was even born on 25th of December or are you just going with what the world has been led to believe?

To be honest, I used to be that way until I came of age. Have you? When I was a kid I believed in Santa Clus and Father Christmas but obvious you know now that those are simply myths. Well, so as many things you believe and practice blindly today. I used to even believe their were three wise men who came to great Merry when Jesus was born. Research guys, it is a lie.

Well, leader of Free the Sheeple Movement, Daddy Freeze has asked those celebrating Christmas to stop fooling the world into believing it’s Christ’s birthday when it’s actually a pagan god, Nimrod’s birthday.

The Controversial On Air Personality was reacting to a video where an American pastor, Brother Benx disagreed with Christmas and Ester celebration stating that there was no biblical documentation to back up such dates.

Daddy Freeze added that birthdays are pagan rituals under pagan gods and not of Christian origin. He went further to add that Christ never celebrated his birthday or any birthday at all.

His Instagram post reads:


You can’t just conjure up a date and fool the world into believing it’s Christ’s birthday when it’s actually Nimrod’s birthday that coincides with the winter solstice of the druids and pagans.


Christ NEVER celebrated his birthday or any birthday at all, so why bring him into your pagan rituals and under your pagan gods?


At the request of pagan ruler Herod Antipas step daughter Salome, at his birthday party, John the Baptist was beheaded.


Birthdays are of pagan, NOT Christian origin! Celebrate your birthdays all you want, JUST KEEP CHRIST OUT OF IT! ~FRZ

Re: Daddy Freeze: Celebrating Christmas, Is Celebrating A Pagan God's Birthday by Olumyco(m): 9:53am On Dec 21, 2018
There is difference between knowledge and Understanding. Knowledge is all about acquiring facts. Understanding is all about interpretation and digestion of facts.

Freeze looks more of a knowledge driven person. He can research very well but his understanding capacity is low. He knows but does not understand.

First of all, he is wrong about the fact that Christians are celebrating Christmas as Jesus Birthday. This is invalid. We Christians celebrate the significance of his birth and not the day he was born.

This is the Logic/Analysis

1. Jesus has been existing right from eternity with God. He was there with God when the Earth was created. So we Christians knows Jesus did not start existing from the time of his birth into the world but right from eternity. So the day of His birth as regards the coming of Jesus to this world is inconsequential.

2. Many things were prophesied about the birth of Jesus by the old testament Prophets like where he would be born, his names, his mission and so on but the day or the date he would be born was never prophesied. This also confirms that the day or the date Jesus was born is insignificant.

3. If the date when Jesus was born is so important, it would have been documented in the Bible in the new testament immediately He was born. But nothing of such. The Bible documents months and day. Even the Noah's flood and co all have their dates documented but that of Jesus was not. It means its of no use

4. The wise men from the east saw a star in the eastern sky and decided to pay homage to Jesus and give Him gifts. The journeyed from their place to Jerusalem/Bethlehem lasted for more than a year... infact close to two years. The wise men did not get discouraged by saying what exact date was Jesus born so that we can present Him these gifts on the exact day He was born. No they didnt consider that despite the fact that the journey was far and will take them more than a year to get to where Jesus was, they still embarked on the Journey. Infact by the time they got to Bethlehem, they met Jesus in a house and not a manger. Joseph and Mary had relocated. Herod did not just say they should kill babies of 2 years and below, it means Jesus would be around 1 and half years old or 2 years old. So it means the Wise Men presented Jesus gifts on a day which was probably not the exact day Jesus was born and also after approximately 2 years after Jesus had been born.

From the 4 logical analysis above, the day Jesus was born is inconsequential but the significance of His birth and the reason for He coming into the World.
Christmas celebration is all about celebrating the significance of His birth and spreading the good news that Jesus was born indeed into this world to come and deliver us from sin.

As regards the day chosen, 25th December, its just a day like every other day in the year. Even if all the gods and demons of this world were born that day, it still does not render the day impure. Its also inconsequential. If you observe Freeze very well he has knowledge but has problem understanding the knowledge he has. Looking at 1 Corinthians 8:1-13

1 Corinthians 8:4-5, 8 (KJV) As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one.
For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)
But meat commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.


Paul was saying here that an idol is nothing. In Christianity do we ascribe powers or fear or revere gods and idols? NO! We believe God created all the days in a week and we can celebrate on any day. Romans 14:5&6 and Colossians 2:16 tells not to judge days.
If in a town they worship idol on a particular day and now Christ is being preached to them and they decided to turn the idol place into a church by removing the idol and also deciding to turn the idol celebration to Jesus celebration, is anything wrong with it? No! They have changed and so far the goal, the motive have changed then whatever they are doing will be accepted by God

Lastly, Christmas is all about spreading the gospel. The gospel means good tidings. The Angels started it and the shepherds too spread the news. God himself spread the news by putting a star in the sky. So if these could happen then who are we not to continue spreading the news. One of the fastest and easiest ways to extinct a god or idol is to stop the festival/celebration connected to the god/idol. Just look at the evangelism Christmas has done to the World. Christmas was celebrated by the Angels by spreading the news and Shouting Glory to God in the highest. Christmas was celebrated by the Shepherds by visiting Jesus, bowing down for Him and spreading the news. Christmas was celebrated by God by putting a star in the sky (more like sky beautification/illumination). Christmas was celebrated by the Wise Men (Gentiles) by visiting Jesus and presenting Him three gifts. Paul one of the Apostles in his letter wrote about Jesus being born (Gal. 4:4) and that is Christmas. My question to you is what are you doing to spread the news that Jesus was born? If the aforementioned could celebrate Christmas in different ways then in what way do you wish to celebrate Christmas? Know that Evangelism was constant for all the Christmas celebration of those mentioned. Therefore you can celebrate Christmas in whatever way you like with the goal that it would spread the news. And this is the reason Christians has decided to set a day apart for that and we still talk about Jesus birth in our Churches even after Christmas. We are not tied to Christmas alone.

Thanks

This reminds me of a Jehovah's Witness in my office back in the day who was excluded from the sharing of Christmas rice, and the man was peeved, angrily demanding from my superior officer why he was left out. He was reminded that his faith did not recognize December 25th as a commemorative day for Christ's birth and therefore he was not supposed to partake of anything pertaining to that celebration.

We do not care when Christ was born. All we who are adherents to Christianity are interested in is that He was born, He died and shed His blood for us.

You don't recognize December 25, well that is you. Colossians 2 verse 16 spells it out for us:
Therefore, let no one judge you in matters of food and drink or with respect to a festival, a New Moon, or Sabbath days.

Oh so you knew this all along and yet supported the nonsensical stuff freeze was saying about Christmas?

If you're a Christian and decides to antagonise Christmas because some pagan worshippers used it to honor their deity then you don't know where you belong...ALL the days of the week..all the months and all seasons were made by God and not some pagan deity..therefore the children of God have the authority to worship or celebrate in any day they deem fit..It's like telling me not to enter my father's land because someone planted juju in it? It's the same thing as telling Christians not to worship on Sunday or celebrate Christmas because someone centuries ago used that day to worship some unknown deity..

It's either u have eye problem or ur comprehensive senses are having malaria... Where did u see me support freez?

I don't give a hoot or donkey what his stand is or his concept about Christianity, am not a follow the shepherd kind of Christian... I worship God as I know right.
