What is the reason behind valentines day?
Question
Salam. Mufti Sahab Please answer my questions.I would like to know the reason behind why the valentine?s day is celebrated and why is it haraam for Muslims to celebrate it? Please explain in depth. And When should Salat-ulTasbeeh performed? Should it be prayed after the prayers like after Isha or after Fajr? Iwould like to know that if a particular cloth has a black magic on it, do the other clothes kept along with that piece, will they be affected? Can we use the other clothes? And what should we do to other clothes, as a precaution? JazakAllah khairan?.please reply soon! Wassalam
