Its been 2 months and 9 days since the start of the Islamic new year.It is my observation that we have not shown so much excitement and congratulations at the start of this Islamic new year as we are showing at the start of the gregorian new year.The Gregorian calendar, also called the Western calendar and the Christian calendar, is named for Pope Gregory XIII, who introduced it in 1582. O Muslims! The Prophet sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam said: You will imitate the nations before you very closely to the extent that if they went into a lizards hole, you would enter it as well” his companions, may Allaah be pleased with them, inquired: “(Do you mean) the Jews and Christians, O Messenger of Allaah?” He sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam replied: Who else?” (Bukhaari & Muslim). The Prophet sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam also said: The Day of Judgment will not come until my Nation closely imitates the nations before them.” It was asked: “Like the Persians and Romans, Messenger of Allaah?” He sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam replied: Who are the nations (I could mean) except those?” (Bukhaari). source: alminbar/khutbaheng/184.htm
