Magnetic force. Now I know this is not a very satisfying answer, but it is the same sort of question as "why does gravity attract mass?" There are four fundamental forces, Gravity, Electromagnetism, the Atomic Strong and Weak forces. That's the universe we live in. So my suggestion is--just slide this one to the side for now.

∙ 13y agoThe electrons of certain metals align themselves with the electrons of a magnet, causing the attraction.
Magnets are actually iron pieces.The reason for which they attract iron pieces is that it has aligned Diatoms present in it.Therefore only If you rub an iron piece with magnet its diatoms get aligned and they also become magnets for some time.So,the main reason for the magnetic attractions are the aligned Diatoms.
