Valentine's day and an islamic perspective

View through CrossRef
Islam is a religion that is kaffah, complete with all things governed by it, not only teaches beliefs but teaches how to maintain good relations with the creator of the universe and His creatures. For some people being a Muslim is a savior and sedative of the soul, but there are not a few people who do not like the teachings of Islam so that there is a reaction of hatred, envy that causes actions to damage both from within and from outside. Since the birth of Islam, this has been the case. Various ways have been done to destroy Islam.One effective way to destroy a religion and belief is to keep its adherents away from the teachings they profess. Samuel Zwimmer said at a conference of priests in 1935 in the Holy City: “Actually your job is not to expel Muslims from their religion so that they become one religion with you. But keep them away from their religion (Al-Qur'an and Hadith of the prophet)". Valentine's Day is one of the moments that is often used to distance Muslims from their religionBesides being a threat to Muslims, Valentine's Day is also a threat to other religions, because essentially all religions teach goodness.Valentine's Day, a celebration that is always eagerly awaited every year, is precisely on February 14th. On that day people celebrate in droves, in honor of history, but from year to year the celebration always causes controversy, especially in Indonesia. For a Muslim, Valentine's Day is a custom that should not be celebrated because apart from its negative impact, it is clear that Allah and His Messenger have warned us for a long time. Allah SWT. Says in Surah al-Kafirun:" لَكُمْ دِيْنُكُمْ ولِيَ دِيْن ""For you is your religion, and for me is my religion." (Surah Al-Kafirun: 6)There is no relief for us Muslims with followers of other religions in terms of worship. For the disbelievers, your religion is that your religion cannot be united with ours, because your religion teaches shirk to Allah while my religion was chosen by Allah for me, so that I do not convert to another religion and keep it one. This is the best way of respect among religious people about worshiping God. Then in this verse, Allah threatens the disbelievers with His words, namely, "For you the reward for your deeds and for me the reward for my deeds." In another verse Allah says:For us our deeds, for you your deeds. (al-Baqarah/2:139)Prophet Muhammad SAW. Also often appeal to the Muslims, so that at any time and at any time do not resemble the Jews, Christians and other polytheists. As in a hadith narrated by Imam Abu Dawood and authenticated by Imam Ibn Hibban:وعن ابْن عُمَرَ رضي الله عنهما قَالَ: قَال رَسُوْلُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم: “مَنْ تَشَبَّهَ بِقَوْمٍ فَهُوَ مِنْهُمْ.” أرواه أَبو داوُد.From Ibn 'Umar radhiyallahu Ta'ala 'anhumā he said: "The Messenger of Allah said, 'Whoever imitates a people, then he is one of the people'."According to some scholars, this hadith is daif, but others believe that this hadith is true to the degree of Hassan. We often encounter this hadith as an appeal in almost every non-Islamic celebration delivered by ustadz, lecturers, activists, etc. However, the thing that must be understood is the meaning of tasyabbuh itself, tasyabbuh is a masdar from the word tasyabbaha - yatasyabbahu which has a similar meaning. Meanwhile, according to the terms I quoted from the words of Imam Muhammad al-Ghazali al-Syafii, it is considered that tasyabbuh is "the effort of someone who wants to imitate a figure they admire, whether it's from his behavior, appearance or characteristics."
