Muslims declare war.......on Valentine's Day?

Some sadly are not, or don't seem to grasp the seriousness of it.

Also, to the point you made. Should a majority muslim country that makes alcohol or sex before marriage illegal for it's muslim citizeans....relax? I mean really, is that what you're saying?

In Britian maybe, but not in a country where it is illegal for you to do it if you are a muslim. Let's face it, the vast majority of muslims who do have sex before marriage always regret it later on in life, especially when the time of marriage comes along. I just see the government doing them a favour.

I meant that the holiday celebrating thing is a personal choice not the sex before marriage. In my opinion and I know this sounds sexist but usually it's the girl who regrets sex before marriage because when her husband finds out she's not a virgin he won't want her anymore. Not in all cases obviously but it happens. Usually society is more open about men having pre-maritial sex which is not fair but sadly true.

It's called freedom. Government doing them a favour? How about letting them make their own choices.

I thought your title was extreme.

I was in Saudi Arabia last year for valentines day and the Mutawa (Religious police) took everything red and pink out of the shops or told the shop keepers to put away anything red or pink (even clothing). Now that is what I would call extreme. Didn't last long... I think it ended up occurring in only a few places but yeah...

Well maybe if you're a muslim, you'd understand.

There are some people out there who want to walk naked, can they? Of course not, because the government does not allow it. There are some who want to smoke Cannabis, can they? Of course not, both activities are illegal in this country.

Same principle applies in Malaysia. If you're a muslim, you are not allowed to drink Alcohol or have Sex before marriage.

Well maybe if you're a muslim, you'd understand.

The sound of an argument breaking down...

...Until you read the rest of his/her post.

I'm a little bit fed up of these sad male muslims imposing their "I don't get sex so nobody else can!" bull**** on every other muslim on this forum.

There are many different islams in the world - and your personal version is no better or worse than that of any other muslim.

Nobody has the right to claim their particular brand of islam is perfect and better then anyone elses. You can construct almost any belief system out of the Koran. It is wrong for people to impose their own particular interpretation at the point of a gun, or a police baton.

Trying to make valentines illegal is an impositon of one brand of islam upon many others. It's an act of insecurity and tyranny. It should be resisted everywhere it rears its ugly head.

There are many unhappy muslims living under other peoples belief systems, simply because these other tyrants masquerade under the banner of Islam when in fact they are totalitarian fascists.

...which shows the argument has well and truly broken down.

Valentines day is commercial nonsense anyway. If you want to treat your other half well why do it more on one day of they year than the others?

Please can you hide this as it might be offensive to certain people during ramadan. Thanks.

silly muslims
