Alhamdulillah Rabbil Aalameen, and blessings and peace be upon the leader of the messengers.


I seek refuge in Allah from the accursed Shaitan... nor those who take secret lovers. (Surah Al-Ma'idah 5)


The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Modesty is a branch of faith." (Bukhari and Muslim)


Allah Almighty sent prophets (peace be upon them) in every era to guide and bring success to mankind.


The last link in this golden chain is the Seal of the Prophets, Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), my master and yours.


The pure teachings of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) contain solutions to all the problems of moral, social, worldly, and afterlife life. Allah Almighty says in the Holy Quran: "Indeed, in the Messenger of Allah (Muhammad) you have an excellent example to follow..." (Surah Al-Ahzab)


What is right and what is wrong? What should be adopted and what should be abandoned? By adopting which things does society become righteous and pure? And through which does it become corrupt and tainted? All these things have been clearly stated by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in his teachings.


The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught men and women to adopt chastity, purity, and modesty.


The religion of Islam has clarified the virtue of modesty so that by becoming modest, society can be kept clean and pure.


The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Al-Hayaa' (modesty) is a part of faith, and faith leads to Paradise. And obscenity is a part of harshness, and harshness leads to Hell." (Tirmidhi). Modesty is a part of faith, and faith is a reason to enter Paradise, and obscenity is harshness, and harshness is a reason to enter Hell.


Due to modesty and shame, a person becomes attractive in the eyes of creation and also in the eyes of the Creator. That is why modesty has been declared a part of faith in the hadith. And in one place, it is said: "Modesty is entirely good."


Modesty makes a person pious, devout, and a righteous person. A modest person hesitates to face people after doing something wrong.


It is narrated from Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There are three people upon whom Allah Almighty has forbidden Paradise: one who drinks alcohol, the second who disobeys his parents, and the third who is indifferent and sees indecency in his house and (despite seeing it) allows it to continue." (Nasa'i)


The religion of Islam strongly dislikes indecency and indifference. Every relationship that is contrary to Islam and leads to adultery is considered indecency in Islam. That is why Allah Almighty says in the Holy Quran: "Nor those who take secret lovers," meaning do not have illicit love affairs, which in our time are known as boyfriend and girlfriend relationships, which are illegitimate and forbidden. In Islam, it is a crime and forbidden for men to have friendships or secret relationships with women and for women to have friendships or secret relationships with men. This refers to the dirty mentality in which men and women make each other friends secretly for lust instead of marriage.


And they indulge in wrongdoing to quench their sexual thirst.


Those who have this cursed and hateful relationship have also chosen a day for themselves, which they remember as Valentine's Day, and on this day they openly commit immoralities and indecencies.


While the title of the hadith is clear: "Every religion has a character, and the character of Islam is modesty." (Ibn Majah)


We pray to Allah Almighty to purify our society from such evils and indecencies and to grant all young Muslim boys and girls a correct understanding and comprehension of the religion.


Modesty doubles the value of beauty.


What is the value of a pearl if it has no luster?
