What's Safe (& what's NOT)

 

LIGHT of THE QURAN

Muslims Should (REALLY) Know About WhatsApp — 

Post Text:

WhatsApp is a powerful tool — but it’s not as private or secure as many believe.
Though it offers encrypted messaging, it’s still owned by Meta (Facebook), and the system collects metadata: who you talk to, when, and how often. Backups are not encrypted unless you set it up yourself. New AI tools and chatbots are entering the system too, learning from behavior.

As Muslims, we must be mindful and intentional in everything we do — especially in how we communicate and share the message of Islam.

Allah says in the Quran:

“Indeed, Allah commands you to render trusts to whom they are due and when you judge between people to judge with justice…”
(Surah An-Nisa 4:58) —

And again:

"And do not pursue that of which you have no knowledge. Indeed, the hearing, the sight, and the heart—about all those [one] will be questioned."
(Surah Al-Isra 17:36) —

We should not trust systems blindly, especially when our faith, our message, and our people’s privacy are on the line.

“Indeed, it is only the devils who encourage their allies to dispute with you, but if you obey them, you would indeed be associators [of others with Allah].”
(Surah Al-An’am 6:121) —

Use the tools, but don’t let the tools use you.
If you share the truth, make sure you do it where truth is protected — and the Quran is at the center of the conversation.
