This is because magnets are either para-magnetic or di-magnetic(has two charged paired electrons). As a result, Para-magnetism rises between the two attracting magnets due to their charged electrons arising from ferromagnetic conditions.Due to this, electrons flow from one magnet to another of unlike charges due to unlike poles.Thus magnetism occurs between the two magnets.
