🟠 *_Evaluate Your Position Regarding Social Media_* 🟠
🖇️ *Among the harms of social media:*
🟠 *From a material perspective:*
*Look today at:*
◻️ The pressure parents face from their children,
◻️ The pressure husbands face from their wives for things like coffee — the coffee that people used to buy for twenty or fifteen riyals, and it would last a month;
⬅️ Now, with the media industry’s influence, coffee requires the husband and wife to go out once or twice a week to get a cup of coffee costing 37, 18, 17 riyals.
🖇️ This has led to financial bleeding due to exposure to these programs.
◼️ Children press their parents, demanding to see or buy things they saw.
🖇️ It's very difficult for the father to refuse every time,
🖇️ Leading to pressure on parents due to what they see on social media.
📢 *I mention all this to encourage:*
◼️ People to moderate their gaze and vision;
🖇️ Therefore, understand your position regarding this.
🟠 *Also, the destruction of homes:*
```It is evident that divorce rates have significantly increased with the rise of these programs.```
⁉️ *Why?*
⬅️ *_Due to comparisons_* —
◼️ Husbands compare their wives to what they see and find no similarity,
🖇️ Which leads to dissatisfaction with their wives,
◼️ Likewise, wives see their husbands' financial status, lifestyle, etc.
🟠 *Recent phenomena:*
A man features in all his videos with his wife! No dignity, no honor, no privacy;
⁉️ *Why?*
He promotes his content with his wife's body,
🖇️ Leading young women to believe every husband should be like this,
🖇️ Taking her every day from country to country, restaurant to restaurant, café to café — distorting perceptions and destroying homes;
🖇️ *Hence, the rise in divorces and separations.*
🟠 *Another harm of social media:*
It has elevated those unworthy of being in leadership positions!
🖇️ *Story and Lesson:*
A woman in Egypt was divorced seven times and is now a consultant for women on social media!!
🖇️ Divorced seven times,
🖇️ She failed in seven marriages!!
Let’s assume men are bad; shouldn’t she succeed in at least one of those seven marriages if she’s a consultant for women?
🚫 Don't ask about the level of destruction this woman caused in Egyptian society,
🚫 This phenomenon exists in all countries.
🖇️ *Therefore, this leads one to lower their gaze:*
◼️ Lower your gaze from the haram,
◼️ And moderate your gaze in permissible matters and understand what you are looking at.
💬 Al-Tirmidhi reports from Aun bin Abdullah that he said:
_“I associated with the rich and found no one more distressed than me; I saw a beast better than my beast and a garment better than my garment; then I associated with the poor and found rest.”_
📢 *No matter how:*
◼️ Content you are,
◻️ Strong your character,
◼️ Firm your belief in fate,
🖇️ *Believe me:*
◻️ The repeated gazes,
◻️ The continuous exposure to clips,
◻️ Spending four hours on Snapchat,
◻️ On Instagram before sleeping, after waking, at the table, on a trip, while driving,
🖇️ Will affect you no matter what;
The soul by nature compares;
🖇️ If it sees something, it compares with its own state,
⬅️ *This is a major cause of many psychological issues people face today due to this,*
⬅️ And what they see on these screens;
🖇️ Therefore, one should not spend all their time on these programs.
