No religion urges its followers to adopt mutual love, affection and intimacy like the religion of Islam. This should be the case at all times, not just on specific days. Islam encourages showing affection and love towards each other all the time. In a Hadeeth (narration), the Prophet, 
, said: "When a man loves his brother, he should tell him that he loves him." [Abu Daawood and At-Tirmithi]
In another Hadeeth, he said: "By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, you will not enter Paradise unless you believe, and you will not believe unlessyou love each other.Should I direct you to something that if you constantly did it, you wouldlove each other? Spread the greetings of peace among you."[Muslim]
Moreover, the Muslim's affection includes inanimate beings. Talking about the Mountain of Uhud, the Prophet, said: "This is Uhud, a mountain which loves us and we love it." [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
, said: "When a man loves his brother, he should tell him that he loves him." [Abu Daawood and At-Tirmithi] said: "This is Uhud, a mountain which loves us and we love it." [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
