Valentine’s Day Celebrations Banned All Across Pakistan: IHC

[Respect4Respect01]

Those who are lecturing others how they should conduct themselves in their life

I am not stopping anyone, people can do whatever they want but they have no right to make others feel uncomfortable in public places.

Flying is a Western invention, and not a Muslim tradition,
yet Pakistan Air Force is doing just that.
Will there be a Fatwa vs JF-17?

Algebra is a muslim invention, the rest of the world should do without it..

Take a chill pill, V-day is not harming anyone and Basant well we all know, PMLN deliberately banned it since it was a hit product of Musharaf which started to took International fame.

Baji ko kabhi phool mile to than i'll ask u if its harming anyone or not, hypocritte!!!

Feel uncomfortable really thats a valid argument?

The authorities are distracting Pakistanis from real issues by this ban we had 2 blasts today

The ban and the blast are two seperate issues. We discuss the blast till death and rightfully so. Saying that the ban has distracted the blast is just untrue. You know damned well that today's topic in the mainstream media and across Pakistan is the blast. Not Valentine's Day.

At the of the day everyone is free to practice and believe whatever they want. No one can impose anything on anyone. An individual is eventually going to think or act as he or she deems appropriate. That doesn't mean that we stop sharing our opinions on any topic just because people differ or disagree. Every single person has the right to express their own opinion no matter how extreme or inconvenient.

why is this not a valid argument? if i do something that makes you feel uncomfortable or shy in front of your family then shouldn't you tell me to call it off?
There are threads on blasts too, and if you watched TV today all channels are discussing blasts and martyrdom of 3 soldiers.

The irony is that when you read some of the comments in this thread and particularly from foreign members we can conclude the very same thing. Lectures is all they are. Pakistanis don't require lectures from foreigners who don't even have a basic understanding of our culture and norms. These are usually the same suspects that cry foul once you express an opinion related to their respective nations. The hypocrisy is mindboggling.

You can look away or change the channel i guess its better than telling other people what they cant do

Unlike some Muslims here, we have no problem adopting things from other cultures,
if they make sense or are harmless.

While I am no supporter or proponent of valentines as it is a rehash by greeting card companies back in the 60-70s to boost their sales; it seems the IHC and generally the useless majority of Pakistani public has nothing better to find an prohibit according to "Islam"

They cannot implement any actual shariat in their own personal and private lives so they spend it like squaking crows trying to make up for their own guilt by such public drama.

Idiots will spend their lives on facebook writing posts suh as "please like for sawab" on ideas such as this but are unwilling to stand up against corruption or even sectarian hatred.

Munafiqstan

A mans perception is generally based on his resentment of his own shortcomings and inabilities, maybe its u who fails to implement any kind of sharia in ur own life hence that hidden guilt makes u see entire pakistan in ur own image, i seriously feel sorry for u and bieng a mod on pak defence forum and abusing and mocking the name of pakistan by calling it munafiqistan doesnt go hand in hand, u my friend have serious problem...

I agree with the political angle of the ban. Of course it is insincere, but at the same time we can be rest assured that Valentine's Day is a Western festivity which doesn't hold any commonality with Eastern cultures. It is a modern day imported culture. Basically a failed festivity which has little following among the nations who invented the day.

it is easier said than done, we are talking about real life here my friend, reality doesn't give you a remote control to change the 'channels' that we don't like. Once again i am not telling anyone what to do, you have the right to disagree with me but don't just claim that i am forcing my view on people.

@Horus this oscar has been seen frequent,y asserting his views and abusing his power as a mod, above he is threatening to ban a member over nothing, he called pakistan munafiqistan on a previous post of his, maybe u should take notice...

BS. Protectionism is all time high in Western societies. Trump is the latest manifestation and much of Europe is no different. Elections are on their way and right wing populism is at an all time high. Western civilization claims to be at war with outside influences. Local customs and the Aryan race is supposed to be at the brink of extinction. Islam is about to conquer and destroy the way of Western life. It is a doomsday scenario. The West isn't adopting anything. It is fearful.

Irony is in this thread most Pakistanis are appreciating this move.

Apart from a few, Majority of Pakistani posters on this thread have actually stated the futility and the hypocrisy of this ruling.. Unless i'm reading the wrong thread that is

Btw not a big fan of V day either, It's a commercial ruse to sell their products, The world doesn't need a special day to express love
