However, because of the prevailing use of evil and the abundant supply of opportunities for evil in the present era, it has become a near evil tool. The enemy forces for their ulterior motives use these devices very effectively. 

However, today they are using it as an effective tool to spread the message of truth, Islamic teachings, and the Quran to a much wider circle.

Usage of Internet

First: Let us examine our good intentions, that they are essential to Islam and the Sharia. Also, it is impossible to achieve this without the internet.

Second: The work you want to do. Use the net to determine this and disconnect yourself from the net after it is done.

Third: Use the Internet to determine the time. That we will use the net for a long time.

Fourth: Use the Internet with ablution. Because the effects of Wudhu (ablution) cause the effects of Satan to stop. Also, read the Supererogatory prayer.

Fifth: It is forbidden and unlawful (something with which the private parts are covered) to look at the veil of a stranger woman or a man. Similarly, it is forbidden to see it on screen. Because the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) saying, to view the veil of the dead man as equivalent to seeing the veil of the living man.

Looking at the screen also causes more sensation than seeing a dead person. Therefore, it must be taken care of, and special arrangements should be made for the lowering of the eyes owing to modesty or shame.

Avoid sharing or forwarding unverified news information. Besides, consult our Islamic organization for certification. Persons are more likely to be affected by Satan (evils) in isolation.

Therefore should not use the net in isolation and especially at night. It should be tried, that the computer should be used in the lounge or the common room, etc. and that the screen of the computer should be used in the eyes of all. Because the risks are so high on the internet. Thus, it should not be used just for fun and entertaining.

Seventh: Browsing should be avoided for a long time, and only select sites should be visited carefully. Messaging or chatting with women, no matter how good-hearted, is not valid. So it should be avoided. Your comments on Facebook and other activities should not be expressed and discussed.

Because it promotes the emotions of the exhibition. You should keep a critical eye on the Internet usage time so that no time is wasted, and in the browser setting, there is an option to block the automatic expression of images.
