Myspace

Is It Wrong to chat with muslim Sisters :sister: on myspace since i am not like talkin to them in person?:brother:

[F.Y.]

Yes, it is wrong. There is potential for something to develop between you and the other person so it is better to keep away.
I know of so many cases where people have 'chatted', quite innocently at first to someone and then it develops into something more, then they realise they cant be together and it's all a huge mess. It's dangerous too. How do you know you're not talking to an old, lonely grandad? So you might ask for 'her' to send her photo just to be sure - and then that would mean you're looking at a woman which is not really a good thing to do either.

Keep away - it's a trap. Shaytaan will tell you its fine, you're only talking about 'school' etc, but you know, these things are quite predictable and before you know it, you could have gone too far.

Peace

I agree with FY...it can definitely be considered free-mixing. I don't think it matters if you are alone with the opposite gender in person or online...Shaytan is still there.

i have friendster accounts...but all of my friends are my cousins...hhehe...

i think it is the easiest way to update them and to ask them...how are they doin...and also to post them any islamic stories or news...

and we also can exchange blogs...

Its best not to spread the news of "myspace" to people that don't know...

No need to expose brothers and sisters to fitnah.

Btw, I was being sarcastic.

Myspace is all good, as long as the person using it is Mature and uses it Wisely.

As for me, i choose not to bother with it.

[DigitalStorm82]

Praise be to Allaah.

Firstly, there is no doubt that such conversations, if they lead to evil and to fitnah (temptation) – as happened to you when you were infatuated with this man – are haraam and are not permitted. Everything that leads to haraam is also haraam. See the answer to Question # 6453.

Secondly: you have to repent to Allaah and seek His forgiveness for doing this haraam thing. You have to regret it and immediately stop engaging in chats with non-mahram men on these channels. You have to ask Allaah to cover your faults in this world and in the Hereafter. We advise you to use your time in things that will benefit you in your religious and worldly affairs, such as learning about your religion, taking care of your husband and looking after your children. Undoubtedly these are things for which Allaah will reward you. And you have to do a lot of righteous deeds, and get to know good women so that you will have alternatives to harmful uses of your time that bring no benefits. We ask Allaah to guide us all and give us all strength.
