Remember Prophet ﷺ on the day of his birth The Prophet ﷺ respected the young and elderly. Lam yaqul fee hayaatihi laa, He never said to anyone in his life, no. So it is our duty to respect what Allah respects, to love what Allah loves, and to be with what Allah loves! We have to be with Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. If you don’t stand up for him, if you don’t respect him, you will not be on the Day of Judgment in front of him and in his presence. He said: عن ابى سعيد الخدرى ادم فمن دونه تحت لوائى يوم القيامة ولا فخر Adam wa man doonahu tahta liwaaihi yawma l-qiyaamah wa laa fakhr... Adam (and who is below Adam) will be under my flag, under my shafa`ah on the Day of Judgment, and I say it without pride... If you go to a president or prime minister, you stand at their door. O Muslims! You cannot stand at the door of Prophet ﷺ? You stand at the door of a prime minister or an important person; what about Prophet Muhammad ﷺ? Today, is there importance for the celebration of his birthday? Yes there is importance, and we have to stand up in order to show respect to Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, then he will show us respect on the Day of Judgment. We are standing at the doors of presidents, and prime ministers to ask them for a favor, but we cannot stand in front of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and ask Allah for a favor, for forgiveness for the sake of Muhammad ﷺ? Allah forgave Adam for the sake of Muhammad ﷺ! I am sorry I was upset, but now I am okay. When you shout, you make people listen. When you speak slowly they sleep and listen to television. (laughter) The importance of the birth of Prophet ﷺ, that night is surely important for the Muslim community and human beings at large, because he was sent, as he said: قال صلى الله عليه وسلم (إنما بعثت لأتمم مكارم الأخلاق innama buithtu li-utimma makaarimu l-akhlaaq, I was sent only to perfect the moral excellence of human beings. So to remember Prophet ﷺ on the day of his birth is important for us. To have such meetings shows people how we can follow and apply the teachings of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ to bring people peace, love, tolerance and acceptance, or else we would be fighting with each other Mawlana Shaykh Hisham Kabbani
