The Prophet ﷺ touched only two corners of the Kaaba: the Black Stone and the Yamani corner. Muawiyah رضي الله عنه touched all four, saying: nothing of the House of Allah is boycotted. Ibn Abbas objected. And al-Shafi'i, as Ibn Hajar records in Fath al-Bari, explained why the scholars sided with Ibn Abbas: we did not leave the other corners as a boycott. How could we boycott the House while making tawaf around it? We left them because we follow the Sunnah in what he ﷺ did, and in what he left. 📖 The Prophet's ﷺ leaving of a thing is itself Sunnah to be followed. That is the answer to the Mawlid. Not celebrating it is not a lack of love. It is following him ﷺ in his actions and in his leavings, the way the Sahabah understood following. 🤲
