Mawlid an-Nabi is celebrated by a large number of the people in many towns and cities. Commemorating Mawlid an-Nabi renews the memories of the Prophet. Celebration of Mawlid an-Nabi is cut of love for the Prophet and an expression of ones love, which is permissible. Mawlid an-Nabi is a Bidah Husna (good innovation) because it is a means of showing gratitude towards Allah for sending the Prophet.
