An Indonesian cleric on Friday said Muslims should not celebrate Valentine’s Day because it glorifies promiscuity.
Anwar Abbas, Head of Education at the semi-official Indonesian Council of Muslim Scholars, said the sale of condoms in bags of chocolates gift raised concerns.
“Valentine’s Day is not compatible with our nation’s culture and religious tenets.
“This culture will destroy the morality of the young generation,” Abbas warned.
He said that the council was concerned about reports that some shops had been selling chocolate packaged together with condoms ahead of Valentine’s Day.
The media reports said that the reports sparked outrage among conservative Muslims and prompted local authorities in Central Java to raid stores and confiscate the items.
Indonesia is the world’s most populous Muslim nation, but Islamic observance is relatively moderate.
Saint Valentine’s Day, also known as Valentine’s Day or the Feast of Saint Valentine, is a holiday observed on February 14 each year.

ReplyDeletebuhari can't do that even if he wins, who is he? Abacha tried na but where is he today? if buhari try to impose sharia in this country he will die the next day.
ReplyDeleteYou ppl are just a dullard someone is saying the Islamic view of something n u r there saying all sort of rubbish, tell hw valentine is related to economic development n when Buhari was the military head of state did he Islamise Nigeria. So u guys should be wary of what to say so that it won't put u in trouble one day.
