Fasting On A Monday


Hadrat Sayyiduna Abu Qatada al-Ansari (Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu) reported that Allah's Messenger (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Aalihi wa Sallam) was asked about fasting on Monday, whereupon he said:

"It is (the day) when I was born and revelation was sent down to me."

A simple question to the opponents:

When the beloved Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Aalihi wa Sallam) is celebrating his birthday not yearly but every Monday then how it can be labeled as Shirk or Bid'ah?
