Question
There is a serious phenomenon which has become widespread. This is the exchange of messages (inappropriate messages) between boys and girls via cell phones. Could you comment on this?.
Answer
Praise be to Allah.
In fact I liken the messages which are
sent via cell phones to the graffiti on bathroom walls. This is a filthy
action done by those who have no understanding. What is astounding is
that their numbers appear with their messages, and there are sometimes
message in which there appears a kind of shirk or association of others
with Allaah.
Shaykh Ibraaheem al-Khudayri.
It is essential to advise those who send
these messages via cell phone and to remind them of Allaah and of the
ruling on their actions, and to tell them that they may be included
among those who spread immorality among the believers. And Allaah is
the One Whose help we seek.
