Very basic stuff....lol...at least there's a recognition that Diwali is a Hindu religious festival, not some secular celebration of secular lights? Ughhh...Kahan Kahan se....

Why am I seeing so many Muslims wishing Hindus "Happy Diwali?"

Diwali is a polytheistic religious festival involving the worship of Hindu deities, which fundamentally contradicts tawhid.

The traditional Islamic position prohibits congratulating others on religious festivals rooted in shirk.

We can show respect for other communities, treat them with kindness and maintain good relations without endorsing their religious celebrations.

Just as I do not expect others to endorse Islam or wish us "Eid Mubarak" if they are not Muslim.

Basic stuff.
