Just name an Islamic country and you have the answer to your MAIN Question. Mexico does celebrate "The Day of The Dead" as does China.

Japan celebrates Shishianohi. Day of the dead. I dont remember the date.
Mexico celebrates on November 2 the "day of all saints" but is also known as the day of the death, and it is not a horror party but a special day to remember the close people that passed away, like the father, the mother, etc. It is a party full of colours.
Unfortunatelly such beautiful celebration is nowadays invaded with the halloween tradition.

Mexico celebrates the day of the dead. Germany doesn't celebrate either. Neither does France. I think. Germany, I'm sure of, but don't quote me on France. I could be wrong.
