Countries around the world have invented so many holidays and special days in order to keep people buying and consuming all year long, every month of the year, including holidays that don't even exist in their holy books, yet some Muslims have went and copied those holidays in their countries, either as shop owners who want to make extra money, or as consumers who have an empty life that is lacking purpose, and want to fill it with as many artificial "special" moments as possible.

As a Muslim, my life is full with 5 special moments a day (Salah), a weekly special holiday 50 times a year (Jum'aa), special days of fasting (Mondays, Thursdays, 13, 14, 15, Arafa, Ashoura), and special times of celebration (1 day Fitr, and 4 days Adha), a total of over 100+ special days a year, more than any other religion, and in case you think our life is all worship and no fun, you should probably see the countless of Halal hobbies and pleasures that Allah has created for us that I as a Muslim practice, Alhamdulilah!
