#1 He is wrong about the history but he is correct about Islam and birthdays.

The ancient Jews knew about birthday, there is one mentioned in the bible for a non jewish king but there is no record in the bible that Jews celebrated it. Even today religious Jews have trouble celebrating it.

Islam has always been against it.

Christians have varying views on it.
