Poem: As Muslims We Do Not Celebrate So-called "Valentine's Day"

๐Ÿ’ In The Name Of Allah The Most Gracious The Most Merciful 
๐Ÿ’Œ Glad tidings to those clever enough to realize 
What's real and what isn't, so they don't do Valentine's. 
What non-Muslim couples do they don't romanticize, 
Aware that most of their affairs are not legalized. 
To avoid commemorating zina we're obliged.
~•~
On the fourteenth of February, we're not required 
To purchase heart-shaped cakes, to wear pink or red attire, 
To send roses or cards, to buy gifts to signify 
Profound love, or for Muslim couples to dine outside
Beside lovers whose "love" lives aren't legitimized.
~•~
This day being celebrated by thousands worldwide 
Can't justify it even if one's niyyah is right. 
A Muslim wife can express her love each day and night 
To her husband in ways where she doesn't sacrifice 
Her faith/Imaan to match misguided people's desires.
~•~
A Muslim husband doesn't need to cutely describe 
His gratitude for each woman whom he calls his 'wife' 
On Valentine's day, as he knows it's not justified.
If you love your spouse for Allah, softly verbalize 
Your feelings in loving Du'as every day and night.
~•~
Forget watching romantic movies on Valentine's. 
Remember that unbelievers cannot be admired 
For their wrong beliefs and practices unsanctified. 
We're not old-fashioned, closed-minded, not full of vile pride.
As Allah's servants, we strive to leave what He dislikes.
~•~
๐Ÿ“– Ibn Umar RadhiAllahu 'anhuma narrated: The Messenger of Allah SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam said, "Whoever imitates a people is one of them."
