Please comment on new year's resolutions broadcast by Muslim radio stations and also by Ulama.

Answer

Yes, there will be much, much wrong. Emulating the kuffaar, adopting their practices and licking their boots are major sins. The method of administering naseehat may not be in imitation of the kuffaar. New year resolutions are pure kuffaar customs. All year long they indulge in vice and immorality, then on the occasion of their new year, they fulfil a custom which is bereft of substance. Even for the kuffaar, their new year's resolutions are hollow and empty - devoid of reality and sincerity. In fact their resolutions are moronic.

Nowadays Muslims who follow the Yahood and Nasaara into the "lizard's hole" insanely imitating every stupidity and filth, are also adopting this stupid practice. It is Tashabbuh bil kuffaar (imitating the kuffaar). The Islamic content in these moronic resolutions is simply a mockery of the Deen. It is like reciting the Tasmiyah when devouring pork or carrion.

What constrains these Muslim juhala and stupid molvis to also adopt this custom? By which rule of the Shariah do they proffer resolutions on new year's day? The true Muslim renews his Pledge to Allah Ta'ala daily. Daily he has to repent, seek forgiveness and pledge to Allah Ta'ala to reform himself and to submit to the Shariah. Muslims do not wait for any future day such as a new year's day for making resolutions, for giving naseehat and for renewing their pledge with Allah Ta'ala. This is a daily practice in the life of persons who are consciously Muslim.

Even so-called senior Ulama such as Mr.Taqi of Pakistan have become entangled in the meshes and tentacles of shaitaan on this issue. This gentleman also advertises silly resolutions on the kuffaar new years day. Bootlicking and modernism erode the equilibrium of the Muslim's brains. When this happens, then bootlicking the kuffaar appears honourable. For these bootlickers, the Qur'aan Majeed states: "What! Do they search for honour from the kuffaar?"
