The debate among contemporary scholars as to say Merry Christmas, each year occur. There are two groups who agree to give congratulations and there are also against it.Each of these groups has a number of propositions.
First Opinion
Ibn Taymiyyah, Ibnul Al-Qayyim and his companions such as Sheikh Ibn Baaz, Shaykh Ibn ' Uthaymeen, Sheikh Ibrahim bin Muhammad al Huqoil — may God always safe for them — they thought that giving a congratulatory Christmas day law is unlawful. Because of this festival is a part of religious rituals and rituals of other people. Because giving congratulations to them it's the same as anything they do. And this is haram.
Among other forms of tasyabbuh (resembling):
1. Participate in the feast.
2. Transfer their feasts to the lands of Islam.
They also argued for compulsory abstinence from various celebrations of infidels, steer clear of attitude resembles that of their deeds, away from the various means used to attend the celebration, not to help a Muslim in resemble their feast, not to say congratulations on their feast day as well as abstinence from the use of a variety of names and terms in their worship.
A Second Opinion
The agreement of many contemporary scholars allows saying Merry Christmas.
Sheikh Yusuf al Qaradawi should argue say Merry Christmas, when they (the Christians or other non Muslims) was their one's happy peace against the Muslims, especially when there is a special relationship between himself by a Muslim, such as relatives, neighbours House, college buddies, co-workers, and friends of the school.
It is included in does not ban virtue God Almighty but loved him as he loved to do justice. The words of God Almighty: that is to say:

Moreover, if they say happy Hari Raya to the Muslims. The words of God Almighty:
وَإِذَا حُيِّيْتُم بِتَحِيَّةٍ فَحَيُّواْ بِأَحْسَنَ مِنْهَا أَوْ رُدُّوهَا إِنَّ اللّهَ كَانَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ حَسِيبًا
(٨٦)
Meaning: "when he was honoured with something, Then give reply it with the reverence of him, or balaslah respect it (with similar). Verily God calculates everything. " (QS. An-Nisaa: 86)
