Valentine's Day Tips - 99 Ways to Show your LOVE

February is a month that makes us think of romance and love: the romantic love of valentine's day...

Romantic? What is romantic?
Is it when I give you flowers during Valentine's Day?
When I give you a gorgeous dinner?
Or is it when I simply say, "I love you"?

"I love you"
But how...???

Let's see what the Bible says about love...
Love is patient and kind; it is not jealous or conceited or proud; love is not ill-mannered or selfish or irritable; love does not keep a record of wrongs; love is not happy with evil, but is happy with the truth. Love never gives up; and its faith, hope, and patience never fail.
(I Corinthians 13:4-8,13)

What does the Hadith say about love?

"God loves kindness when you deal with any matter"
(narrated by Bukhari and Muslim)

"You will not enter Paradise until you have faith and you will not have faith until you love one another. Do you want me to tell you something you can do to make you love one another? Make it a habit to greet one another with "Asalamualaikum " - peace upon you".
(narrated by Muslim)

"Give gifts to each other, as this will make you love one another." (narrated by Muslim)

These are what the religions teach us about LOVE.
