Talk to colleagues, friends, neighbours, school teachers to explain Islam’s position on celebrating Christmas; clarify the place of Issa (alayhi salam) and the high status his mother Maryam or Mary in Islam. In contrast to what many non-Muslims think, Muslims believe in Issa (alahi Salam) and regard him highly as a prophet and a servant of Allah (swt). Meanwhile, Maryam, Issa’s (alahi salam) mother, has a very high status with a whole Surah or Chapter named after her in the Quran – unlike Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) and Khatijah (may Allah be pleased with her), wives of Prophet Mohammad (saw). hizb.org.uk/islamic-culture/isolate-integrate-or-engage-during-christmas
