Lukgaf:
Praise be to Allaah.
It is haraam for a girl to put a picture of herself on Facebook or in chat rooms or on other websites, for a number of reasons:

1.

This is contrary to covering and concealment that is enjoined upon women in the Qur’aan and Sunnah. Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, says concerning the noblest of women and the furthest of them from suspicion, namely the wives of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him):

“And when you ask (his wives) for anything you want, ask them from behind a screen, that is purer for your hearts and for their hearts”

[al-Ahzaab 33:53]

“O Prophet! Tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks (veils) all over their bodies (i.e., screen themselves completely except the eyes or one eye to see the way). That will be better, that they should be known (as free respectable women) so as not to be annoyed. And Allah is Ever OftForgiving, Most Merciful”

[al-Ahzaab 33:59]

And He forbade women to speak softly, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):

“O wives of the Prophet! You are not like any other women. If you keep your duty (to Allah), then be not soft in speech, lest he in whose heart is a disease (of hypocrisy, or evil desire for adultery, etc.) should be moved with desire, but speak in an honourable manner”

[al-Ahzaab 33:32].

So Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, enjoined the wives of the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), and the believing women in general, to observe hijab, so as to purify the hearts of the believing women and to protect them from anything that may give rise to temptation or suspicion, and so as to preserve their chastity and that of His believing slaves. Once this is understood, it will become clear that for a woman to put her picture where it will be seen by righteous and evildoers alike on such websites is something that is contrary to Allah’s teachings.

2.

That opens the door to fitnah (temptation) and evil for the woman and for those who see her. How often have we heard and read painful stories caused by such things. How many pure and chaste women have fallen into the traps of those who do not fear Allah, evildoers who have tempted them with sweet words and promises until, when they had had their way with them, they turned their back on them and abandoned them with nothing but regret and loss, and perhaps shame in this world and in the Hereafter - Allah forbid.

How many evildoers have tampered with those images and reproduced them by modern means, putting the head of a decent woman on the body of an immoral woman, then there will be great regret for what she brought upon herself and her family when regret is to no avail.

3.

With regard to what you have mentioned about some women who wear hijab believing that putting their picture in hijab is not forbidden according to Islam, if what you mean by hijab is proper shar‘i hijab that covers the face and does not show the face of the woman, then this kind of thing is not forbidden in Islam, especially when there is a need for it. But this is not what they meant, because there is no benefit in doing this. What is the point of putting a picture of a black shape in which nothing appears?!

But if what is meant is putting a picture of a woman with her face uncovered, even if she has covered the rest of her body, then we have explained that this is what leads to evil consequences that are sufficient to deem it forbidden, even if we do not say that it is obligatory for the woman to cover her face; so how about if that is obligatory? The sin in this case is multiplied and the danger is greater. By doing that she has transgressed and what the believing women have been accustomed to doing for centuries.

Al-Ghazaali (may Allah have mercy on him) said in Ihya’ ‘Uloom ad-Deen (2/53): Men throughout the ages have always had their faces uncovered and women have always gone out with their faces covered. End quote. It says something similar in Fath al-Baari, 9/337.

Al-Haafiz Ibn Hajar (may Allah have mercy on him) said in Fath al-Baari (9/424): The custom of women in the past and more recently has been to cover their faces in front of non-mahram men. End quote.

Moreover, if everyone who has any common sense realises that the focal point of beauty and fitnah in women is the face, and this is what men want to see, and it is from this that it is judged whether a woman is beautiful or not, then publishing pictures in the manner mentioned opens the door to women for be tempted to be a source of temptation, and for them and their pictures to be treated disrespectfully, as they will be visible to anyone who wants to see them.

And Allah knows best.

Islam the only religion that truly allows you to live in a righteous way that will lead you to the kingdom of heaven. For the sinners that want to perpetually live in sin they will say it's control , it's fundamentalist.

Good god you imbeciles are brainwashed from head to toe. Since when is Islam concerned about what women put up on their facebook pages? Why the hell do you care? Why would an all powerful superbeing like "Allah" frankly give a damn? This reads worse than some social policing I've heard about in Nazi Germany!


I just taya.

Meanwhile the pic below is a "declaration" you have to accept before you can comment on Islam-related threads. Talk about islamization, bigotry and double-standards. Shame on you, Seun.

Op , do your research well before u come and start misleading people! Images are generally not acceptable in Islam ( especially I think the ones with a face ) this is not about male or female ! If that were the case then women might as well not go out since all manner of people see you just as they see you online ! “ the focal point of beauty and fitnah is the face “ - I thought it was the body ? And isn’t that why you are supposed to lower your gaze ? Islam does not obligate covering of the face, I think you are really overstepping your bounds ! Stop misleading people , pls !

It was on the front page; is that not an invitation for all to comment?

But to borrow your choice of words, i am "pained" because there is no such threat on ANY christian topic. It might interest you to know that i sincerely don't really care whether allah or jesus christ or hari krishna gets the finger - they are free to come down from heaven or wherever and smother me in divine fury if they feel offended). But i strongly dislike double-standards, especially from persons in authority. If there must be an islamic declaration before one comments on a muslim thread, then other religion's should have their own declarations too before one can comment. What's fair is fair, innit??

can you bring forth the reference or link to this hadith sir.


And one more thing, the rules of Allah (S W T) will always be static either we are in 21st century or 40th century dosent change anything. Islam is not science and technology that needs development and innovations to prosper. Allah as perfected the religion since about 1400 years ago. so saying we must we move in line with the modern trends is a wrong statement sir.

Allah says in Suratul maidah verse 3:

"This day, I have perfected your religion for you and have choosen Islam as your religion "


I hope you get this

You are not making sense sir.

So we must follow Every modern trends even if it is against the sources of Shari'ah? So because the west have lost their shame by turning fashion to nudity means we muslims must imbibe the same culture?? all in the name of advancement of age undecided For Your info Islam is a religion that touched every aspect of human life and no time or people can change that.

The way we practice Islam in this country is highly pathetic.

Tell them this is the perfect way of how their religion should be practiced they tagg you a radical muslim. Orisirishi undecided

If you are looking for the radical Muslims you better go to their base in Sambisa forest for proper scrutiny.

No matter how bad a white man can be,when its comes to his religious commitment he will follow it whole heatedly without any lapse whatsoever ditto to the Arabs, but here in Africa we have a lot of hypocrites and lazy souls that complains on even the smallest act of devotion. no wonder we are lagging behind. Pathetic
