Along with the photos was a caption that said, "Merry Christmas."

The 29-year-old forward is known to be a devout Muslim. Some fans took to social media to criticize Salah for his decision to celebrate Christmas.

This is not the first time Salah would post about celebrating Christmas despite his religion.

The backlash Salah received was not just from fans in his own country but all over the world.

The top scorer in the Premier League has not responded to the backlash on social media as he prepares for a return to the pitch after missing Liverpool's last game in which they booked a place in the semifinals of the EFL Cup.

Salah is expected to return to action when Liverpool welcomes Leicester City to Anfield in their next Premier League fixture scheduled for Tuesday, December 28, 2021.
