Dear “Be My Valentine”

February 14, 2010

Dear “Be My Valentine”, if you are a non-Muslim, there shouldn’t be a problem for you to celebrate Valentine’s Day. However, if you are a Muslim, you should re-think your action in trying to celebrate a non-Muslim event. Astaghfirullaahal’aziim. Valentine’s Day is only for Christians not for Muslims.

We have our own Muslim events that should be celebrated wisely. If you say that we should celebrate because “it’s a day to celebrate love”, then you should re-think again. In Islam, everyday is to be filled with love. There’s no such thing as a “Love day” because Islam teaches us to love and respect what has been gifted by Allah The Almighty EVRYDAY.

Just like when we love our parents, we love them everyday, not only during Valentines’s Day, or Mother’s day, or Father’s Day. Then what happen to the rest of the calendar days of the year? And in your case, do you love your partner just on Valentine’s Day? What happens after Valentine’s Day?

I’m sure you will still love him/her, right. Again, if you are Muslim, it’s HARAM to celebrate Valentine’s Day because “Valentine” is a name of a Christian’s Priest (or something – not sure) – His name is Saint Valentine.

Therefore, in Islam, there’s no such name as Saint Valentine listed and we should not celebrate his day. We have our own Muslim celebrations that we should be proud of, like the New Year of Hijrah, the Birthday of our beloved Nabi Muhammad Sallallaahu ‘Alaihi Wassalam (PBUH) which is coming very soon, and other Muslim Celebrations.

If we, the Muslims ourselves, don’t celebrate our own Muslim celebrations and who will? I don’t see other religions celebrating our BIG DAYS as grand as we celebrate theirs. Have u seen any? I don’t think so.

Anyway, if you are a Muslim, please think again. When it’s stated it’s HARAM, please do not do it because it will only bring Allah’s fury to you, and Brunei as a country. If you are not a Muslim, then of course, I don’t have any objection for you to do so.
