A clarrification and history about this day by Sheikh Mumtaz Ul Haq
It is not permissible for a Muslim to celebrate any of the festivals of the non-Muslims. Valentines Day is an innovated festival for which there is no basis in Islam.
The clear evidence of the Qur’aan and Sunnah – and the consensus of the early generations of this ummah – indicates that there are only two festivals in Islam: Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha. Any other festivals that have to do with a person, a group, an event or anything else are innovated festivals, which it is not permissible for Muslims to observe, approve of or express joy on those occasions, or to help others to celebrate them in any way.
