yes I can say that. Even your definition of Halal included celebration. Halal is not the only word used for praise

Praise
the act of expressing approval or admiration; commendation; laudation.
2.the offering of grateful homage in words or song, as an act of worship:

Why is releasing pent up excitement or celebration according to you being disingenous? That's YOUR words not mine.
