Is Halloween the Night of the Devil?

Honestly, I hate it when Muslims make up stories about festivals like conspiracy theories to portray them all as evil which only leads to expose the ignorance of Muslims in the end. Okay, there is this video here:



Firstly, there is no Celtic God named Samhain. It was a harvest festival of farmers with no religious connotation
until Christians adopted it much later on. Secondly, not all kids will be dressing up as something evil. There will be
kids dressing up as superheroes or other sorts of cartoon characters and fictional characters. Thirdly, trick-or-treat is not a demeaning thing. It is an act of sharing between neighbors and children. And they are dressed up as something they are not? What does that even mean? They are dressed up as their favorite characters from
movies and television programs – don't tell me there is anything wrong with that! Fourthly, there are wicked folks lurking to coaxing children? Yes. They are there all the time, hanging around the corners of schools and daycares to lure innocent kids with heinously perverted intentions. Halloween is not an isolated day for that. But Satanists? Satanists sacrificing children to Samhain? What?! For the last time, Samhain is the name of a harvest festival.
There is no entity called Samhain!

We have to sit through Evangelical Conservatives make up lies about Islam and we hate it, then we turn around and do the same – shameful; absolutely shameful and disgusting. If there is anything positive about this video, it is
the last portion of it speaking about spending Islamic holidays with family such as the Eids and Ramadan. We do not do enough of that anymore and we must to instill our own Islamic traditions into our children so we may be able to mold a better generation of ummah in the process insha'Allah. Salam.
