Consistent with its previous stand, PAS Youth has urged the Muslim youth not to celebrate Valentine's Day, which falls today.

Its chief Nik Mohamed Abduh Nik Aziz said the celebration is associated with Christianity and hence should be discouraged among Muslims.

"This has been part of the issued Islamic law and fatwa... We do not encourage the celebration among youths because it's originates from Christianity.

"We cannot be involved in it," the Pasir Mas MP told reporters at PAS headquarters in Kuala Lumpur this afternoon.

Previously, his past predecessor - Nashruddin Hassan - was famously known as an anti-Valentine’s Day hardliner .

Meanwhile, when asked to comment on the upcoming Sarawak election, Nik Abduh said the youth wing has already proposed five names to the central committee for contesting.

"Our proposed candidates from PAS Youth are very capable, and they are from Sarawak. We are confident that PAS will choose amongst them.

"We will be happy if they are nominated by party," he said.

Nik Abduh added that PAS Youth will be going to visit Sarawak each week up until the state elections are announced, in order to boost up the PAS machinery.
