Re: St.valentine's Day
Allah SWT is out Rabb He Created everything for us ,
love for Allah is the true Love Allah SWT Says In the Quraan
Yet There are men who take(for worship)others besides Allah as equal ( With Allah)
They Love Then as they should Love Allah. But Those of faith ae overflowing in
their love for Allah. if Only the unrighteos could see, when theywill see the
torment, that all power belongs to Allah and that Allah is severe in punishment

Re: St.valentine's Day
Some of you might be thinking right now what outdated & biased views this
person is talking about. Whats the harm in celebrating Valentine's Day & all
such occasions?
There is no question about having the best of relations & gestures of love
between a husband & wife everyday.
What the point is, that to do something special on "Valentine's Day", should
not be encouraged.
Firstly, even in Hazoor-e-Pak 's time one example of copying traditions comes
to mind about the tradition of Jews to keep fast on 10th Moharram ,in
respect of the day of victory of Prophet Moosa over Pharoah, our Prophet
Sallala-ho-alaihi wassalam considered it a good deed to adopt BUT he still did
not want to follow the noble tradition exactly , hence ordered his people to
fast for 2 days instead of one, firstly to show even more respect for this
blessed day on which many other miraculous events took place on Earth as
well as to look & portray differently to the Jews also.
Secondly & more importantly which deals with our (Muslims) behaviour is that
, we should not publicly act in such a way that it might hurt someone & I am
saying in all aspects of human life, same is the case with celebrating
"Mother's Day" ,in case of Mother's Day it hurts those who dont have a
mother & it hurts those that cannot become a mother !
For those fortunate enough to have a mother should love & care for them
everyday, paving the way for heavenly rewards. InshAllah.
I believe there is no harm in celebrating personal milestones such as
birthday, anniversary, graduation etc.( like Celebrating them as ..the Non Muslims do> Cakes and Candles et.) >> in a way that does not imitate other beliefs or symbols etc., but to have a "Public" celebration's day of frivolous
traditions is really not "ON".
That is why in Islam there our only own 2 Public celebrations , one is
Eid-ul-Fitr & the other is Eid-ul-Adha.
The Gist of the matter is that if we follow any of the traditions of the
"Non -believers" we are giving it power & encouragement, on the other hand
making the "Non Believers" more staunch & proud of their false beliefs &
religion.
Whereas we as Muslims should h<>ave the best of <>Faith, Practices,
Akhlaq & Tolerance that they start doubting themselves & are attracted
towards the True path. Unfortunately we Muslims have lost our way
ourselves but atleast should not do things unknowingly that does not do any
service to bringing people to "light".
The best practice would be to take 14th February as any other day, if the
"Valentines Day" hype all over/ every where else reminds us to convey our love & do something nice for our spouse, then we should plan & do so the
next day or on the coming weekend just in order to please Allah & follow our
Prophets (SAW) teachings correctly, whilst trying to be good & loving in our
married life everyday .
With just this simple Neeyat in our hearts InshAllah we may attract more
blessings & rewards in our life !
I hope this makes sense , I am living & working in Australia since years, this
analysis of mine is not coming from a narrow minded , intolerant perspective
but from a sincere, logical opinion after years of unknowingly doing what
"everyone" does.
May Allah Subha-o-Ta'ala, the most Gracious & Merciful, ignore all our small
, petty mistakes & make us enlightened, educated & righteous. (Aameen)
