AVOID VALENTINE'S DAY

Some People Celebrate Valentine's Day On Febraury 14 By Exchanging Red Roses, Dressing In Red, And Congratulating One Another On That Day. Some Cake Shops Make Heart - Shaped Cakes In Red & Draw Hearts On Them & Other Shops Advertise Special Items On Sale For This Day.
What Is Your Opinion on :

First : Celebrating This Day ?

Second : Buying From These Stores On This Day ?

It is authentically reported that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said :" Anyone who imitates a people is one of them. Valentine's Day falls under this heading, as it is one of the idolatrous Christian Festivals. It is not lawful for a Muslim who believes in ALLAH (SWT) & the last Day to celebrate, approve of, or congratulate people on it, it is forbidden to them. Rather, it is obligatory for them to ignore and avoid it, in obedience to ALLAH (SWT) and HIS Messenger (peace be upon him) and to keep away from that which will arouse ALLAH (SWT) 's anger & incur punishment. It is also Haram (prohibited) for Muslims to support this festival or any other forbidden festival by any means, whether by supplying good or drinks, selling, buying, manufacturing, gift - giving, corresponding, advertising & so on, because all this comes under cooperating in sin & transgression, & disobeying ALLAH (SWT) & HIS Messenger (peace be upon him). ALLAH (Glorified & Exalted be He) Says : Help You One Another In Al - Birr & Al - Taqwa (virtue, righteousness & piety) but don't help one another in sin & transgression and fear ALLAH (SWT).
Verily, ALLAH (SWT) is severe in punishment.
