Not so popular here. Christmass is commercialised

No, I don't celebrate it and never will.. See.. Even though people don't celebrate it as a religious holiday, they are still imitating the Kuffar. The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said those who imitate the Kuffar are amongst them! I would never ever imitate a Kuffar in any way.. And even though you don't intend on celebrating it for religious purposes, you need to keep in mind that obeying Allah (SWT) comes from ACTIONS and INTENTIONS. So don't act upon the Haram. So much Fitnah when it comes to Halloween & Christmas.. And other Kuffar holidays.
