Assalam aalekum and

my brothers and sisters,

don't you agree that social media has become an issue?

Everyone is on social media, be it WhatsApp, telegram,

or Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Twitter, whatever it may be.

There are so many platforms that some of those names we don't know.

My brothers and sisters, people sometimes go onto social media in order to find validation.

People want likes, they want follows, they want to be famous, they want to make money sometimes

because they've heard that you can make money and therefore they end up doing silly things

that are at times displeasing to Allah subhanah Allah or compromising their own morals and values

in order to achieve that.

If you are going to do something silly

in order to get a like or two,

you might get more than just one or two likes,

but it will come at a price. Really, long-term, it's not going to go down well.

Similarly, if you're doing something that is unacceptable in terms of what Allah has ordained as a believer. Obviously those who don't believe, perhaps this

wouldn't help them. But if you're a believer, what has Allah taught? He's taught you to be disciplined,

to hold high morals and values, and that discipline would actually bring about contentment

and happiness and so much more.
