Pakistan Court Bans Valentine's Day
巴基斯坦法院禁止情人節
The day before Valentine's Day, a court in Islamabad banned the public celebration of the holiday in Pakistan. The court was responding to a petition that stated that Valentine's Day celebrations violate Islamic values and culture. The ban included the electronic and print promotion of the February 14th holiday. Despite the ruling, many business owners and street vendors, including those of Muslim faith, disregarded the ban and sold Valentine-themed flowers and gifts as planned.
情人節前一天,伊斯蘭堡的一家法院禁止人們在巴基斯坦慶祝該節日。法院此舉是為了回應一份聲稱情人節慶祝有違穆斯林價值觀和文化的請愿書。該禁令禁止任何宣傳2.14情人節的電子版及打印文件。盡管有此規定,但許多商業人員及街道小販,包括穆斯林信仰者,都無視該禁令,并照常出售情人節花朵和禮物。
