Eid-e-Milad-un-Nabi, often referred to as Mawlid or Eid-e-Milad, is a significant Islamic celebration that marks the birthday of the Prophet Muhammad.
The Prophet also died on that very day, and Muslims all over the world take time to reflect on his teachings and life.
Eid-e-Milad-un-Nabi is celebrated on the 12th day of Rabi’ al-Awwal, which is the third month in the Islamic calendar.
The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was born in 570 CE in Mecca.
This year, in 2025, it will begin on the evening of Wednesday, September 3rd, and continue until Thursday, September 4th.
History
Legend has it that Muzaffar al-Din Gokbori was the first Muslim leader to officially mark the birthday of Prophet Muhammad.
People often think that when the Prophet was born, he brought with him the Message of Truth, which is the Message of Allah and His Oneness.
This message guided people towards enlightenment, helping them to differentiate between what is good and what is bad.
Muslims in the Middle East and nearby countries don’t celebrate this occasion on 12 Rabi ul Awal or any other day of the month since neither the Prophet nor his Companions ever celebrated the birthdays of the Prophet or any other prophets.
In 1588, the Ottomans made it an official holiday known as Mevlid Kandil.
Significance
The day is considered really important, so families gather to honor the good deeds of Prophet Muhammad. People celebrate Eid-e-Milad-un-Nabi by organizing big processions, decorating their homes, and families enjoy the day by making and sharing Seviyan (vermicelli in sweetened milk).
