“Allah did not create man so that he could have fun. The aim of creation was for mankind to be put to the test through hardship and prayer. An Islamic regime must be serious in every field. There are no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious.” — Ayatollah Khomeini
“Valentine’s Day ban sees dozens of unmarried couples arrested and crackdown on public displays of affection in Muslim-majority Indonesia,” AFP, February 14, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Whether it’s wine and chocolates in a hotel room or a takeaway and a night on the sofa at home, millions of people around the world will celebrate Valentine’s Day today with special gestures for their loved ones.
But not so in some parts of Muslim-majority Indonesia, where celebrations and displays of affection were banned for violating the country’s ‘culture and ethics’.
Authorities in Makassar, on Sulawesi island, and Depok, near the capital Jakarta, both warned people against public shows of affection, while celebrations were also banned across the entirety of Sharia Law province Banda Aceh.
Police in Makassar carried out raids on guest houses on Friday, arresting around two dozen unmarried couples found sharing rooms, including a German national.
‘We caught the German with his Indonesian partner in a motel and they weren’t husband and wife so that’s why we arrested them,’ Iman Hud, head of the local public order office, told AFP.
The unlucky lovers were quickly released after a lecture about the evils of pre-marital sex, but five sex workers caught in the dragnet would be sent to a rehabilitation centre, he added.
‘These social illnesses must be prevented. We need to remind the public to uphold our culture and ethics,’ Hud said.
Makassar has also banned the open sale of condoms and applied strict age checks to make sure those buying them are over the age of consent – which is 16.
‘Condoms are for married adults,’ public order chief Hud said.
‘They’re not supposed to be displayed and sold openly, particularly near snacks for kids like chocolate.’
Makassar’s acting mayor Muhammad Iqbal Samad Suhae insisted the measures were necessary to prevent his city from being paralysed by rampant sex and drug use.
‘Festivities like Valentine’s Day usually attract youth,’ he added.
‘That’s when they are out of control and doing things which violate our norms and traditions, like consuming drugs and engaging in free sex.
‘We want to prevent that here.’…

Every now and then real human compassion and love attempts to break through the iron wall of Islam and it is met with stern resistance.
Templer says
Islam is a metal illnese there no such thing as Allah it’s all lies there Koran which is not true. Says the world is flat I suppose that’s wright it off course no free speech in Islam forced conversion so the lie goes on
Anon says
It is a mental illness no doubt about that
LEON POLLAK says
It is not more illness then communism or fascism are. The same type of ideology, not the religion. A religion speaks about self improvement, ideology – about society “improvement”.

No kidding!
There is no LOVE in islam, romantic or any other.
Only hate your enemies.

Lydia church : Islam is worse than corona virus ! and I don’t know how the non-Muslim world didn’t annihilate Islam for the last 14 centuries , and they let it survive and go in killing , destruction and raping spree for the last 14 centuries.

Islam is a mental delusion based on the vicious thoughts of a 7th century warlord.
Love has NOTHING to do with Islam.
Rufolino says
Absolutely true, but don’t forget there are other cultures much nearer to home, where some expressions of “human compassion and love are met with stern resistance.”
Does one need to specify?
william carr says
Khomeini’s words neatly sum up all I need to know about Islam which is a curse upon humanity and has not humanity, especially where the females are concerned. It is worth remembering that Chrsitianity in the RC manifestaion was not a whole lot better for many centuries, and is still very severe in many countries.
The church does not like sex as it is or was the only thing they could not control, so it had to be rationed!

Valentine’s Day is banned by Muslims “for violating the country’s ‘culture and ethics’.”
Why can’t we ban anything Islamic for violating OUR country’s culture and ethics?
Goofy says
Fair question.
Peter Dale says
The Ayatollah would have fitted right in with the early New England Puritans.
Mary says
No. He probably would want to marry all the girls under 10
mortimer says
Love is not a requirement for Islamic marriage, because ‘love’ implies a measure of equality. In Islam, a woman is a virtual slave of a man. Mohammed’s last sermon refers to women as ‘prisoners’ and ‘domestic animals’.
Jacques Delacroix says
Not at all. They are much worse. Look up “bundling.”
Kenek says
New England Puritans were not rapists or genocidal murderers. You have a poor understanding of Christians, mohamed.
tim gallagher says
That statement from Khomeini seems like a lie. I’d say there is plenty of fun in islam for evil people, especially evil men. If you want to marry and have sex with very young girls (didn’t Khomeini himself marry some very young girl, or is that something I’m not recalling correctly), if you are a man who wants to stomp all over the rights of women, if you enjoy oppressing and murdering non-Muslims, if you enjoy killing gays, if you enjoy carrying out honour killings and so on, I’d say there is lots of evil, sadistic fun to be had in Islam. I’d say that’s the sort of fun that Muhammad, the murderous warlord, offered to his fellow scum and built an army of fellow evil creeps and that’s how Islam spread its evil. Islam seems to provide perfect fun for sadists. This anti-Valentine’s Day movement would probably because Islam hates anything to do with our western way of living.
Chistopher Watson says
And if you want to see rampant, gay sex just go to Saudi Arabia. They just love it.
tim gallagher says
I’ll take your word for that, Christopher, though I’m not surprised by such hypocrisy from Muslims, as I have no intention of ever going to any Muslim country as I don’t want to give them any more of my money than I have to. (by which I mean that, here in Australia, I have to buy petrol from Muslim countries in the Middle East to run my car). Also, I have zero interest in seeing how they live their backward lives, which seem to me to be lived in a way that is a couple of thousand years out of date.
Dan says
And don’t forget the men having sex with little boys.
Rufolino says
If there is “rampant gay sex” in Saudi Arabia, the levels of hypocrisy and denial must be stratospheric.
E T says
His bride was not that young Tim, she was 10 when the filthy pig married her.
tim gallagher says
I thought that Khomeini, the foul piece of evil garbage, had married some very young girl, E T, but I was relying on my memory so I wasn’t sure. But I guess the evil old maggot (er, Muslim holy man and moral exemplar I suppose that should be) didn’t enjoy defiling her, there was no fun in it for the hypocritical scumbag. So that’s OK from the Islamic point of view. Islam definitely is extremely disgusting and barbaric in so many ways.
gravenimage says
I doubt that he refrained from raping her.
tim gallagher says
Apart from all the other barbaric garbage in islam, gravenimage, this paedophilia in Islam is loathsome. But, hey, their “perfect” man, the chosen one of Islam’s absolutely bizarre idea of what god is like, showed scumbags like Khomeini how to behave, so this sickening behaviour is all fine and dandy. As you often say, God, I hate Islam, a sentiment that most commenters here at Jihad Watch would agree with. The cause of all of all this evil behaviour in Islam has to be this evil concept of god they believe in, ( fabricated by the evil Muhammad) the god who approves of all sorts of revolting types of human behaviour. Islam has this totally upside down morality where repulsive behaviours are considered to be just fine.
gravenimage says
True, Tim–that such a psychotic warlord, caravan-raider, pedophile, slaver, rapist, and mass murderer is considered the “perfect man” in Islam has led to untold suffering over the past 1400 years.
tim gallagher says
Totally agree, gravenimage. Muhammad was such a lowlife type of person and this concept of what god is like that he manufactured is evil and, as you say, islam, Muhammad’s evil creation has been a blight on the human race for 1400 years. What’s amazing is all these people who still think Islam deserves respect, etc. This idea that it actually deserves respect has to be one of the biggest confidence tricks played on large numbers of people ever.

There is no room for the celebration of love and life in a culture of hate that loves death.

if they love death,why do they hide behind children when being fired upon??????
Kenek says
“no jokes in Islam. There is no humor in Islam” islam itself is a joke. A bad joke.
Of course there is no humour in islam because intelligence is required to understand humour. It is obvious to all but the most blind that the fatherless and illiterate, mohamed (the perverted profit) excelled in stupidity, having an estimated IQ or 70 , possibly due to centuries in inbreeding. He was also clearing mentally ill. He certainly enjoyed his “winged donkey rides” with Gabriel ( who was really Satan in disguise.
Both laughing and thinking are haram in islam, the cult of death.
FYI says
Ah yes:islamic “norms and traditions “…….
These include koranically sanctioned
Child brides{koran 65:4}
Polygamy{koran 4:3}
Rape of enslaved women k4:24 and see SUNAN ABU DAWUD vol Hadith #2155
Nikah mu’tah {temporary “marriage”} a form of prostitution!
The Bacha bazi pederasty of boys in Afghanistan.
Such ‘holy’ “norms and traditions” in islam!
Despite all that virtue-signalling false piety muslims love to go on with,islam is an immoral religious cult of a pagan ARAB god al LAH {“the BEST of deceivers” k3:54}that subscribes to a ‘holy’ book that is an instruction manual to violate every single one of those Exodus 20 Commandments of God:the ‘holy’ koran give full permission to lie k3:28,to use enslaved women as sex slaves koran 4:24,to murder koran 2:191,to steal koran 48:20
islam:”Commandments of God?What Commandments?allah the champion deceiver gives us permission to violate them in his “perfect” book,the koran”
We all know how immoral the “perfect” man muhammed was,with his 9 year old child “wife” Aisha,being caught in adultery with Mary the Copt,the Polygamy,stealing from{and murdering} the Khaybar Jews.
gravenimage says
Important list, FYI.
James Lincoln says
I have a sneaking suspicion that the Ayatollah didn’t care much for “Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness “
FYI says
Most likely he subscribed to those core islamic beliefs of …
“Death,Slavery and the pursuit of Misery”

I wonder if the Ayatollah would have had a different attitude if had taken a stool softener and a probiotic every day.

AND, it is also that time of year again, a very happy ‘NORMAL Awareness Month’ to you all people [also appropriately known as, ‘HETEROSEXUAL Awareness Month’ to all normal human beings], cheers.
Jayell says
Islam says No to Valentine’s Day. Isalm says No to birthdays. Isalm says No the fooball. Islam says No to music. islam says No to anything and everything that Islam has not invented….which means practically everything that hasn’t been invented under its infjuence in its miserable cesspits, because Islam thinks its the ‘Big I am’ and can’t bear being out-done by anyone else. Which isn’t exactly difficult.
So, in return, we say No to Islam. Oh no, can’t do that, that’s ‘islamophobic’. OK, so islam is Valentine-phobic, birthday-phobic, football-phobic, music-phobic, as well as being homophobic and of course ‘kuffar-phobic’
By the way, we’ve got an ‘LGBT Pride’ event here in London in the near future. Can’t say that I necessarily approve of an event like that because I don’t see why they need to do it anymore, but the local muslims will almost certainly show their disapproval somehow (as if we’re bothered). However, they’ve said that they’re going to stage their own ‘Muslim Pride’ event about a week later (can’t be original, can they?) and they say that they’re apparently going to valiantly brave all the rampant ‘islamophobia’ which no doubt they’re hoping they’ll get thrown at them so that they can justify all the nasty rampant homophobia that they’re no doubt planning to have thrown around during the previous week’s event. But you wouldn’t be allowed to draw attention to that, because that would be ‘islamophobic’,

Every day is anti-Valentine’s day under Islam so what are these demonstrators ranting about?
E T says
Women are stoned for being victims of rape. What was their crime? They must have tempted the men through their dress or activities. The real kicker is now the freaks are telling women who have been raped by them, that they can become suicide bombers and Allah will make them martyrs.

All too true.
E T says
“These social illnesses must be prevented”. LOL. Someone should talk to Imam Moulana Dayyid Muhahamed Rizvi, the Imam Of the Jaffari Mosque, 9000 Bathurst Street in Vaughan, Ontario, CANADA.
In his book he openly advocates that sex with a 9 year old is acceptable, IF it occurs within muta ( temporary) or da’im ( permanent) marriage. permanent marriage is preferred, but sex with girls within the concept of a temporary marriage is permissible.
The muta marriage is performed for free by an Imam. There is a “fee” that goes to the Imam and the mosque. There is no minimum or maximum time involved in a muta marriage.
This is happening in Canada
Should the Imam be charged with pimping?
Pedophilia is not legal in Canada
Statutory rape is not legal in Canada
This is Justine Trudeau’s idea of diversity?
I expect there will be massive arrests tomorrow.
Geri Ungurean says
This is LUDICROUS. Perhaps they would like it to be “Happy Jihad Day.” They could still use the RED as used for Valentine’s hearts – but it would be symbolic of the BLOOD of the INFIDELS. SHALOM from a JEWISH believer in Christ.

Why do we allow Islam in any country.? Outside the midle east its nothing but a religion of evil
We should more than definitely ban it from any civilized country or ban it all together.!!!
