This world is a strange spectacle of strife; here, sometimes truth is presented in the guise of falsehood, and sometimes sin is wrapped in the fragrance of love and sold in the markets of hearts. Similarly, a day that the people of the West have named Valentine's Day dawns on the horizon of time like a red rose, but in reality, it is not a rose but a flower from the thorny garden of Western civilization, whose fragrance conceals deadly poison. This day seemingly comes as a messenger of love, but in its skirt, there is not love but the licentiousness of lust; on its face, there is not a smile but a thick veil of satanic deception. Love is that pure emotion that sits in the hidden chambers of the heart, veiled in modesty; love is that light that shines from the lamp of marriage, but what kind of love is this that is sold in the markets, what kind of affection is this that dies on the threshold of immodesty. Valentine's Day is not actually love; it is a celebration of the empire of the ego; it is the splendor of the idol temple of lust; it is that fair where the moths of modesty burn and the lamps of faith are extinguished. This festival sows such dreams in the hearts of young people that give destruction instead of fulfillment; it creates such a sparkle in their eyes that ultimately drips as tears. It is a gift from the West whose outward color conceals the darkness of the inner self; it is that instrument whose tune is not happiness but the brokenness of the soul. The people of faith know that the true meaning of love is not just a red rose but the purity of the heart, not just gifts but the guardianship of chastity. Valentine's Day is, in fact, a title for the defeat of morality, the death of modesty, and the destruction of civilization in the name of love, and the truth is that this day is not of love, it is a day of deception of love, it is not a day of roses, it is a day of thorns, it is not a day of union, it is a day of decline. May Allah protect us from this temptation of color and fragrance and keep love in its original place of modesty, chastity, and the light of Sharia, Amen.
