It shouldn't matter if this is an Islamic country or not. With all the expats living in this county we could start calling this country cosmopolitan soon. In the UK, we celebrate christmas, chinese new year, diwali, eid, etc. We welcome all races and cultures and join in regardless.

Nothing is more relaxing than flying like an Eagle in Heaven !!

Islamic calendar is so different ... it is hijri and if u go back to islam rules its haram to celebrate new year eve! (our new year) but most of them they do. We celebrate in different ways: night clubs, parties, family gatherings ... its haram basically.

Because qatar is an Islamic Country & It is not allowed in islam to celebrate the new year, being a responsible resident we should respect the culture of this country and not do such think which should be against islamic culture or rules...:)
