Partaking in Christian Festivals

 

Is it allowed to eat the food of Christians in their
festivals? If not, what is the meaning of the aayah, The
food of those who were given the Book is lawful for you
(Maa'idah 5:6)?

It is not allowed for a Muslim to share with the
Disbelievers in celebrating their festivals. The aayah
was revealed with regard to an incident when a Jewess
gave a piece of meat to the Prophet (S); we does not have
to attend the festivals of the Disbelievers and share
their food in order to implement this aayah! This whole
issue has been fully-discussed by Ibn Taymiyyah in his
book, Iqtidaa' as-Siraat al-Mustaqeem Mukhaalafah Ashaab
al-Jaheem (Pursuing the Straight Path contrary to the
People of Hellfire).

Is it allowed to attend the celebration of Christians in
a church?

 

It is not allowed. It is not allowed to attend a venue of
evil, unless to change the evil if possible, otherwise
the Qur'aan is clear:

 

Do not sit, after the Reminder, with the people
who do wrong. (An'aam 6:68)
