The event, held to commemorate the Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) birthday, raised concerns as the Quran explicitly prohibits raising voices in the Prophet’s Mosque.

The Quran, in Surah Al-Hujurat, verse 2, states:

“O believers! Do not raise your voices above the voice of the Prophet, nor speak loudly to him as you do to one another, lest your deeds become void while you are unaware.”

The incident, seen as a breach of mosque etiquette, has drawn criticism from many Muslims worldwide, citing the importance of maintaining a serene and respectful atmosphere in such a sacred place.

Masjid an-Nabawi, where the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is buried, holds deep religious significance, and actions that could disturb the peace inside the mosque are frowned upon.

Majority of these people were chanting slogans in Urdu, which is largely spoken in Pakistan and India.

Many scholars and religious authorities have reminded worshipers of the importance of reverence in mosques, particularly in Masjid an-Nabawi, where discipline and quiet devotion are encouraged.

This prohibition against raising voices aims to protect the sanctity of the mosque and the respect for the Prophet’s memory.

Authorities have yet to comment officially on the incident, but it has sparked a dialogue within the Muslim community about the balance between celebration and maintaining respect for religious guidelines in sacred spaces.
