Muslims believe in all prophets and Jesus as wel. I'm muslim and from Iran, here we dont celebrate christmas, just in media they congratulate some christians (most armenians) who live in Iran.
Arabs have an especial new year (Moharram), and we Iranians, celebrate our new year according our traditions which is almost 70 days after christmas.

They believe Jesus was a prophet, and they respect Him as such. Since Christmas celebrates His birth as the Savior, they do not celebrate Christmas. As a side note, Judaism adamantly denies that Jesus was anything more than a blasphemous liar.

Ramadan
- a month of daytime fasting each year, which falls during the 9th month of the Islamic calendar
Laylat al-Qadr - the "Night of Power" towards the end of Ramadan, which is when the first verses of the Qur'an were revealed to Muhammad
Eid al-Fitr - "The Festival of Fast-Breaking" which comes at the end of Ramadan
Hajj
- an annual pilgrimage to Mecca, Saudi Arabia which occurs each year during the 12th month of the Islamic calendar
Day of Arafat - a day when pilgrims gather at the Plain of Arafat to seek God's mercy, and Muslims elsewhere fast for the day
Eid al-Adha - "The Festival of Sacrifice" which comes at the end of the annual pilgrimage
Other than these two major observances and their corresponding celebrations, there are no other universally-observed Islamic holidays.

Jesus its not the son of Allah(God) simply Allah is neutral and simply if Allah can make Adam without mother and father it can also born Jesus without father. If he can make sperms in mans body through man's body he puts in womans and whole process happends. If jesus is son of Allah(God) then why he had to sacrifice his son he can frogive christians sins without sacrificing.
Any how he is prophet he dose mericles with Allah's permission he was not crussified. And we cannot celebrate Xmas cause we are not christians. one point more we beleive in monothism not on trinity(three Gods father son and Holy Ghost) one question did you ever read the bible cause I did also try reading Quran it will help you to know what is truth you can have that from Muslim comunity or from Mosque

They believe Jesus was a prophet - not the Son of God, fully human, fully God. They do not celebrate Christmas.

Everyone knows that religion is delusional. Christmas is a pagan ritual anyway. And pagans, although just as delusional as christians, were around for a lot longer. Christianity just has a cheesier christmas story that even kids can understand. That is why they get all the publicity.

We don't celebrate Jesus's birthday. Because celebrating it means
agreeing that Jesus was born as son of God.
Also, nowhere in Islam it is stated that Christmas has to be celebrated by Muslims. It is basically not a part of Islam.

No. They see Jesus as a prophet and do not recognize him as the son of God or as born of a virgin. Therefore they do not revere him like christians do.
