If PAS really wants to be part of the team that is to take over our government, I think they should do better than this. The PAS youth chief recently claimed that the Fatwa forbids Muslims from celebrating Valentines Day because it contains elements of sin and Christianity (You can read about that here: http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2011/2/9/nation/8024821&sec=nation). He also said that they have "identified favourite spots in every state where lovebirds mingle."
So you're relating Christianity to sin? Wow.
Of course a day later, the man says he has been misquoted.
And now we have Jakim saying that they'll be launching an Anti-Valentines Day campaign.
Well, with this much buzz going on about the upcoming Valentines Day and how Muslims shouldn't participate in it, it'll be no surprise that many Malay couples will be staying home to have home-cooked candlelight dinners. And that IS romantic, don't you think? Added bonus? They get to save money instead of spending on overpriced meals outside.
Aww (:
