Valentine’s Day in Different Religions

What is Valentine’s Day:

It is related to ancient room while there was an Emperor Claudius II was tried to establish his army by forcing the people as they didn't participate. This made the emperor infuriated and he assumed that the men did not want to leave their loved ones or families. So, he decided to cancel all marriages and engagements, people thought this was a ridiculous and malicious order. Saint Valentine was a person, who arranged the marriages secretly, but at last he was caught and took into prison and his punishment was sentenced to death. In prison he had fallen in love with the daughter of a prison guard. On 14th February Saint died and left a note of thanking for his loved one.
Valentine’s Day in Islam:

Valentine’s Day in Islam:

In Islam, there is no particular day to express appreciation and love. Islam ordered us to be kind and love our families and close to the extent that even animals justify love and care. A beautiful Hadith of Hazrat Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam explains the meaning.
“There was a dog who was circling a well. Thirst had nearly killed him when a prostitute from amongst the prostitutes of Bani Israel had seen him. She removed her shoes and quenched the dog. Thereupon, she was forgiven due to this action of hers.” (Sahih Al-Bukhari 4/173)
Islam is a religion of love, but there is no meaning of girlfriend or boyfriend ever Islam teaches us to love with your legal relationship like wives or husbands.

Valentine’s Day in others Religions:

Let’s see the other religions where everything is allowed and on every Valentine’s Day mostly you can see the different partners so, where is the love? It appears only for some time and while you are deciding to change your partner it disappeared. Now you can decide aren't we making a fun with this great feeling? Love is a blessing of God and this all universe is based on Love and we had never right of making fun with this. Try to make good and legal relations and give respect to them with your love and sacrifice.

Valentine’s Day is not bad if we do not cross limits and celebrate it with our families. Which thing is prohibited in Islam, we should remain away from it because it takes us into hell directly. Please my brothers and sisters think it and then decide what we are going to do.
