Unnecessary Facebook Debate

[KittenLover]

women's place is in the house, specifically in the kitchen, if there's a computer in there with fb so she can chat with her relative/friends it is good because the husband can save money on fone bill, instead of standing up and talking on the fone she can talk on facebook while the mixes the dish.

you kill 2 birds with 1 stone, and the woman won't get bored in the kitchen cos she will be able to talk to her relatives in pakistan on facebook and even show them her cooking. no long distance call which make big fone bill so very good u kno.

lol jus joking, fb is ok if used for good purposes, I actually find it quite interesting that many sheikhs are on there, like muhammed al shareef, abdur raheem green, bilal phillips, naveed aziz, their connecting to the technology generation doing dawah and debating with shia's from their computer.

She should really concentrate on her cooking rather than talking on facebook because otherwise her husband would have to eat her crumy food. It's either that or he has to pay for the phone bills. ;D

That's what msn is for by the way.

i never knew that u could hear a persons voice on facebook? so u would not mind your husband showing himself to other women and other women adding him who also show there faces? just an innocent question sis?

you can't hear voices, it's just text chat, well you can modify settings so random people can't add you. and who said anything about putting pics up, I have facebook but no pics are up on there. and the same goes for my husband, he doesn't have his pic up either.

her husband is used to her crummy cooking by now, he knows to say "I've never tasted food this good before" otherwise :raging:

it isn't I was just kidding around, msn is better cos it has live video call feature so when you get stuck on cooking you can call your mum and she can watch you and instruct you how to make the food via webcam.

and you save yourself the embarressment of showing ur husband you can't cook a good curry LOL.

Facebook has a lot of anti-Islamic groups and pages. I find that no matter how hard you try to complain for the removal of these groups, the more they ignore you.

Sometimes I feel like if all the Muslims were to boycott Facebook, these people wouldn't have a reason to discriminate against Islam anymore.

There are even some groups that are created by Muslims with the intention of modernizing the image of Islam, especially with issues having to do with modesty and women in Islam.

That's what I find most disturbing!! :-(

No way can you avoid that and like i said before whoever made facebook did not have muslims or islam in mind.

I recently deleted my Facebook due to a stalker that has been emailing me at my personal email address and also, he found out my other email address (which I did not even state my real name as I used that email to register for a non-Islamic related forum) which NO ONE knows of. I felt so sick and violated, I decided to delete my Facebook as I was afraid he would find it and stalk me even more. Apart from that, Facebook is so over-rated and hyped over that it has becoming boring and just a tool for whoever to get their points across (this is done by creating groups of even the stupidest thing!).

Not surprised that the stalkers can gain access to personal information, its pretty easy to get into somebodies account on FB. I'm glad you deleted your account sister i wouldn't trust facebook with any personal information.Some people are attracted to Facebook because they perceive that it offers some control for them over the information that they share, to be honest it really doesn't at the end of the day your information is on there database.

Doesn't MSN messenger provide the same sort service?

My answer is most of my family daon't have MSN and they are not planning to get one.

Forget facebook, nothing is safe. MSN, Myspace, Twitter, WHATEVER. Nothing is safe. There's no point in arguing over which is better or not. All the same nuttiness...

Just don't put up any personal info..as simple as. Not even you're email or date of birth. I don't even use my real name there.

everybody is hooked on facebook even at uni......

Today i had a big debate with my sister about facebook. It was definitely unnecessary and i want to change the way she thinks.

I deleted my account because i heard some bad stories about it but my sister thinks i am socially isolating myself. Which is true because this is the only form of communication that i have with my friends and classmates. I don't take my friends seriously and I also want to cut off bad connections.


She thinks i don't know how to make friends and i prefer to be alone but she fails to understand the real reason.

It is bad. There is no dought about it. Right? :hmm: She should not be arguing and calling me a 'Loser'. :heated:

I place more importance on avoiding things that may lead you to something haram. Facebook is full of temptations. There is no benefit in it. I haven't mentioned this point to her.

Is there another way of conveying this? A way that she would understand. :exhausted

:wa:

Sometimes you just cannot convince a person face to face no matter how hard you try.

Convincing them lies in the way you get your point across - don't let it get heated/don't let your personal feelings get in the way (i.e. the annoyance at being called a loser) and just stick to your guns.

Just be clear concise with your argument, and clear with your intention and insha'Allah it'll get through eventually.

As for this anti-social label, does she think people were born with a facebook account? ;D

I'm almost immune to being called a "loser". This does not bother me anymore.

What do you mean?

Alhamdulillah didn't mean to insinuate that you were, just put it in there anyway.

What do you mean?

I'm rather tickled by the equation of a facebook account to a social life. I know you already said that this is the only form of communication between you and others, but it doesn't compare to speaking to people face to face. Just being with family is being more social!

It was just a lame comment meaning, people had social lives before facebook existed.
