Question
Is it permissible to celebrate the new year's day of the kuffaar? A Mufti says that it is permissible since it has become the norm and is not regarded as a religious day.
Answer
The chap is not a Mufti. He is a moron. Celebrating the kuffaar's new year's day or any of their other festivals is haraam. It is tantamount to kufr.
