this Madanī environment. سُـبْحٰـنَ الـلّٰــه عَزَّوَجَلَّ! There are many splendid blessings in celebrating Mīlād. Countless wicked people become pious via Mīlād. An Islamic brother said that a non-believer was inspired by Mīlād-illumination of a Masjid and embraced Islam, thinking, ‘How wonderfully Muslims celebrate their Prophet’s birthday, and how strongly they love him.’
اَلْـحَمْـدُ لـِلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ! The Beloved and Blessed Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم loves Mīlād celebrators. This is a summary of a statement made by my master A’lā Ḥaḍrat, Imām-e-Aĥl-e-Sunnat, Maulānā Shāĥ Imām Aḥmad Razā Khān: Some devotees of Rasūl saw the Revered and Renowned Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم in dreams, he صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم was pleased with their Mīlād celebrations and said, ‘مَنۡ فَرِحَ بِنَا فَرِحۡنَا بِه’ Whoever is happy with us we are happy with him.

Question: If one person coincidentally falls in love with another despite not wanting to and without doing anything unlawful, then will he/she be a sinner?
