Most “Muslim” online spaces spread nifaaq

Assalamu alaikum - just a quick rant, nothing polished, so feel free to keep scrolling if you want. Lately I keep seeing posts from various online Muslim groups and I honestly don't get it. If you're among fellow Muslims, shouldn't the conversation be about Islam? Or if it's about some other interest, shouldn't people at least try to view it through an Islamic perspective? Instead we get Muslim red-pillers and self-styled Muslim feminists trashing other Muslims for not following whatever secular idea they've swallowed, and urging others to join them in that animosity. A while back I talked to a brother who sounded like a conspiracy theorist; he claimed many of these groups are run by people who aren't even Muslim and whose goal is to tear down Muslims and Islam. It wouldn't surprise me. Too many of us online are weak in our knowledge of the deen and too gullible. What most need is sincere study - start with aqeedah and tafseer, then learn fiqh and put the religion into practice. We're acting like lost sheep, entertaining the thought that maybe Shaytaan isn't really the enemy, and even telling others to help him. Allah says in Surah Fatir: “Indeed Satan is an enemy to you, so take him as an enemy. He only invites his party to be among the companions of the Blaze.” (35:6) Don't follow Shaytaan, and be careful what ideas and movements online you give your support to - whether that's a click, a follow, or an ideology. May Allah guide and protect us all. Ameen.

This hits home. Social media makes everyone an expert overnight. We need more sincere learning circles, less shouting matches.

Ameen. Preach. Spot on about weak aqeedah leading people astray - basics matter more than online flexing.

Short and real. If your deen is weak, your takes will be weak. Protect your iman, avoid toxic pages.

Couldn't agree more. I've seen so many brothers and sisters parroting nonsense with zero grounding. Study before you argue.

Thanks for saying it plain. Been thinking the same - online mobs can be more harmful than helpful. Ameen to the dua.
