Is Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, it's such a haram to go
on and why we can't say it's haram to go on because there are
permissible uses of these things. However, it may be haram for you
to go on, based on who you are, why you're going on what your
intention is and what you're doing on there. So it's a very
difficult, I'll have to know why you're going on there for me to
give a personalized answer to you. But if there's a particular
benefit of it, then of course, you can go, if there is no benefit to
it, then you should avoid it. Because there's, there's more harm
on there than there is good, let's put it that way. There is more
harm than there is good. So if you can be very particular, there's
reasons why, and so on. And I would personally believe that when
you're young, and you're trying to study and so on, you should avoid
it, because it's a big waste of time. I've got an older guy who's
literally struggling to get out of Facebook so you can do thicker. He
sends me an email, he says, I finally managed to extract myself
from Facebook now I can hopefully do something. But he still has to
get off a lot of other things that are extremely addictive. So that's
why you need to have a real life not as not a virtual life online.
Go and visit friends is more constructive than it is to just be
online with them all the time. Bla
