Christmas - is the birth of Jesus.

We of course recognise Jesus, we see him as a prophet. Of course we celebrate him like we celebrate the Prophet Mohammed PBUH. We just dont commercialise it like the Christians do and spend ridiculous amount of money to buy presents.

Alawi's make the occasion on the 7th of Jan. with a special Dish. Money is given to the poor. Food is prepared that we also donated and the distrubuted to them. We do this for prophets to mark a special occasion.
