In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
A women sitting in a red dress
Or in Hijab
With someone whom she is not married
In a park, restaurant, café, market, car or bike
Exchanging gifts with him
Kissing, holding hand, touching each other
Would you like that she is your sister?
No right?
So let’s stand together and stop it
By not playing with others sisters and daughters
And by not letting others to so such activities with ours
Let’s not participate in occasions like Valentine Day, Purpose Day or Kiss Day.
For every religion We have appointed rites which they perform. So, [O Muhammad], let the disbelievers not contend with you over the matter but invite them to your Lord. Indeed, you are upon straight guidance. [Quran 22:67]
“And whoever seeks a religion other than Islam, it will never be accepted of him, and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers.” [Quran 3:85]
Islam does not encourage flirting or suggestions of romantic relationships before marriage and these activities are Haram until you are married. If you fear Allah then be away from flirting and romance until you are married and never do these activities other than with your wife or husband.
The occasions that are to be celebrated by Muslims has been clearly defined in Islam and participating on occasions like Valentine Day, Purpose Day and Rose Day are totally haram for a Muslim either it is directly meeting people or by Messages, Facebook Post, WhatsApp Messages or Other Social Media.
If you are Muslim and participation on Valentine Day you are disobeying Allah and His Messenger (Peace be upon him) as the verses of Quran and Hadith is mentioned above. Participation on Valentine Day mean going against both Quran and Sunnah, if you are still doing it? You need to ask yourself these questions:
❔ Where is your Emaan?
❔ You say I love Allah where is your love? Are you showing your love participating, wishing and celebrating Valentine Day? Is disobeying Allah and His Messenger (Peace be upon him) is reflecting your love?
❔ If you are participating in haram haven't you lost your Emaan?
Dating:

Want to have righteous husband or wife?
Unclean women are for unclean men and unclean mean are for unclean men; and pure women are for pure men, and pure men are for pure women. [Quran (An-Nur) 24:26]
If you want righteous spouse then make yourself turn to Allah and be righteous, Allah promises you to give you righteous if you repent and change yourself.
