ibition of tasyabbuh in the hadith “Man tasyabbaha bi qaumin fahuwa minhum” and the growing practice of Valentine's Day celebrations among young Muslims. Using a sequential mixed-methods design, the study combines desk research including analysis of the sanad, matn, and fiqh of hadith from six journal articles and one primary hadith source with an online survey of 47 Indonesian Muslims aged 16–28 selected through purposive and snowball sampling. The textual analysis found that the hadith is hasan (Islamic law) and that the prohibition of tasyabbuh specifically relates to the imitation of religious symbols and rituals, not all forms of cultural practices. The survey findings support this conclusion: most respondents understand the hadith (80.9%), have never actively celebrated Valentine's Day (89.3%), and believe the prohibition applies primarily to religious or symbolic imitation (55.3%). This study concludes that the primary concern among contemporary Indonesian Muslims is not the religious origins of Valentine's Day, but rather the associated practices, particularly khalwat, which risk violating sharia principles.
