Information Age + Islam

Bissmilahi rahmani rahim

The growth of IT brings more blessings. it makes our life more easier and comfortable. Nobody denies it.

When it comes to our faith, I believe more care should be given. whatever we wrote reaches the other side of the world over a minute. And if due attention is not given, the result is devastating.

It seems we should be aware of some guidelines to follow. 

Specially, the social networks, such as Facebook, twiter, linkedin.... are becoming the meadow for different attacks of Islam.

My writing here is to give some highlights, in such away that we can benefit from the Information Technology blessings and take greater care to the disadvantages.

The enemy of Islam are using IT as better method to attack. Islam is exposed worst now than before.

As an example, I have come to know how the "hacked" Anti Ahbash New group is used to attack Islam.

Based on my experience and expertise, I would like to suggest the following precautions in using IT specially social networks.

1. Join a group whom we know confidently about it. you better ask your friends, check its historical discussions archives and so on before joining the group

2. If you got you are in a wrong group, withdraw immediately. your presence there attracts others of your friend to the same group.

3. Do not respond to any offences written in such groups. when you are commenting, or responding, you are giving more popularity to the group. you are wasting your time for something that didn't bring any changes except exacerbate the condition. after all, the group is created, OR HACKED, FOR SUCH PURPOSES IN THE FIRST PLACE.

4. Tell your friend to unjoin such groups.

5. Don;t forward messages that have confusions, Khilafs and so on. You are helping them disseminating their cause unpaid.

Add whatever you think are good tips too...
