A:
First:
It is not permissible for a Muslim to observe any of the rituals of disbelief and Shirk (associating others with Allah in His Divinity or worship), including the religious occasions such as festivals and others.
Second:
It is not permissible to eat the food served at feasts and celebrations associated with Shirk and Bid`ah (innovation in Islam). This is a sort of participation with and approval for them as they are. A Muslim should be very keen to maintain his Islamic practices unblemished.May Allah grant us Success! May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
