Question
Are baby showers permissible?
Answer
What are these shaitaani „showers‟? Wikipedia describes these Satanist practices as follows:
"A baby shower is a party cantered on gift-giving to celebrate the delivery or expected birth of a child. It is a rite of passage that celebrates through giving gifts and spending time together. (Wikipedia)
Traditionally, baby showers are given only for the family's first child, and only women are invited, though this has changed in recent years, now allowing showers being split up for different audiences: workplace, mixed-sex, etc. Smaller showers, or showers in which guests are encouraged to give only diapers or similar necessities, are common for subsequent babies.
Activities at baby showers include gift-giving and playing themed games. Giving gifts is a primary activity. Baby shower games vary, sometimes including standard games such as bingo, and sometimes being pregnancy-themed, such as "guess the mother's measurements" or "guess the baby".
(End of Wikipedia)
Any Muslim whose Imaan is not dead can understand the evil and hurmat (prohibition) of this silly and Satanist practice of the western kuffaar. It is palpably clear that the stupid practice is bedevilled by many evils. Every act in this „baby shower‟ satanic stupidity is haram.
