And what about having a lovely creamy decorated cake as the prophet's birthday cake, believing this is a blessed cake and eating it brings blessings. I have one such piece of cake in my fridge right now and am going to eat it tonight just like any other cake. How can ashiqe rasul put the nabi (saw) name on a cake and then cut through that name to eat it? Someone suggested taking video of the blessed occasion of cutting the cake for the prophet Muhammad (saw). People were coming with their phones to take picture of cake and then uploading them to facebook. But this special cake came all the way from Slough - I hear Southall does pretty good business as well with these special blessed cakes. So far there have been no candles to blow out along with a rendition of Happy Birthday - but that day does not seem too far off now. Milad is getting over the top in Pakistani community.
