Now, with the advent of technology, internet, instant communication, things have taken a huge turn.
All can be accessed at the click of a button from within the comfort of your own home.
If it's not yourself, whom you worry about, then it's certainly your children, your siblings, those you love and fear for but let's be honest, you can add all of the filters you want to set every hurdle today, but
a person who was set upon a sin will find their way around.

It was an urban crisis, a national emergency. And many companies never recovered from those few hours all because the city's I had fallen asleep for a few moments. I mentioned this because on a daily basis, we find ourselves experiencing a similar blackout.
moments of solitude when no one apparently can see us. This is precisely where many people will use those blackout periods to do to their Eman what those New Yorkers did to their city.

Also, picking up a loud conversation is much easier than I whispered one.
So these factors for us as humans, they make a difference. As for Allah subhanho wa taala, he said about himself.
So, mu kumin esaral Coloman Jarabe it is the same to Allah, whether any of you conceals his speech, or declares it openly. Women who are most stuffing believer Saturday boom been the hub or whether you are hit by night, or whether you go forth freely by day, it's the same.

you're constantly live,
you'll never really offline. From the day you became accountable, the record button was pressed, and it will stay press till the day you lie.
An example of a person who lived life knowing that this button has been pressed, and that he is being recorded, was a God fearing woman who was abducted by a soldier a story mentioned by a tanuki in his book and further ado, by the shinda. Her neighbors fought and fought in her defense, but they were unable to fend off the abductors guards.

Oh my soul, how is it that you are an ally of Allah in public, but an enemy of Allah in private? Oh my soul beware of making Allah semi Alba see the most insignificant of all observers. So the the effects of damage control when it comes to sins is huge when these divine names are noticed in your life, but they offer more than just that. They also offer comfort to the anxious ones.
