sis pink, its not just a matter of saying two words........as i said, ..........its not an islamic tradition, on the other hand, its the tradition of non muslims.Like these we see all our muslim youth celebrating, mother's day, father's day, friendship day, valentines day, woman's day.........(a long list)........Its just like following somebody. And when a person follows another nation, he is one amongst them, and his hisaab will be with them on the day of Qiyamah............
The last verse of the Quran , says:
"This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion."verse 3, surah Al Maeda
so after that when Allah has choosen Islam for us, then why should we wrong our selves?
Allah Almighty says in the Quran:
O ye who believe! take not the Jews and the Christians for your friends and protectors: They are but friends and protectors to eachother. And he amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them.Verily Allah guideth not a people unjust. verse 51, surah al Maeda
There is this hadith which says:
"A person inevitably follows the faith of one's friends, therefore be careful in choosing your friends." (Abu dawud and Tirmidhi)
And Allah knows best.
