Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has sparked controversy once again by sharing a Christmas photo with his family despite being a Muslim.
Salah, who has been criticised for his Christmas posts in previous years, shared a picture of his wife Magi and daughters Makka and Kayan posing in matching pyjamas in front of a Christmas tree.
While some Muslims may choose to participate in Christmas festivities, the holiday is not traditionally celebrated in Islam.
As a result, Salah’s decision to acknowledge Christmas has been met with criticism from some Muslim fans in the past.
In contrast to previous years, however, Salah did not include a message with this year’s photo, potentially in anticipation of the backlash he may receive.
Despite the expected criticism, Salah’s photo has already garnered a significant amount of attention on social media, with many fans praising the Egyptian forward for sharing a heartwarming moment with his loved ones.
However, others have expressed disappointment and frustration with Salah’s decision to celebrate Christmas, citing Islamic traditions and values.
