Afraid Of Valentine's Day


I know it has been Valentine's day, but it made me laugh when I read the news about the fear of Valentine's Day in Saudi Arabia:
The shopowners, especially giftshops and florists received an official letter with the warning of the consequences of selling anything red or with cupids or hearts on Valentine's Day

Even red ribbon, red wrapping paper is banned on that day.

The ministry cited a fatwa that describes it as "a Christian, pagan holiday that Muslims are not permitted to celebrate, or even acknowledge."
