Valentine's Day is a jaahili Roman festival, which continued to be
celebrated until after the Romans became Christian. This festival became
connected with the saint known as Valentine who was sentenced to death on
14 February 270 CE.
No doubt joining in with this may lead to complete KUFR.
Your prophet S.A.W said
''Every people has its festival and this is our festival.'' This is worse
than joining them in wearing the zinaar (a garment that was worn only by
ahl al-dhimmah)
Shaykh Ibn 'Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him), concerning
The Muslim should be proud of his religion and should not be a weak
character who follows every Tom, ceeb and Harry. I ask Allaah to protect
the Muslims from all temptations, visible and invisible, and to protect us
and guide us.
''Help you one another in Al‑Birr and At‑Taqwa (virtue,
righteousness and piety); but do not help one another in sin and
transgression. And fear Allaah. Verily, Allaah is Severe in punishment''
[al-Maa’idah 5:2]
