Harms Of Spreading Misinformation, What Islam Says by Lukgaf(m): 2:55pm On Sep 19, 2019 |
Modern devices, social media and the internet provide us with breaking news almost as it happens. Never before was it so easy to be in touch with the world. Sadly, the benefits of such advancement have been overshadowed by its misuse. The same technology that brings us news in a flash is also used to spread misinformation, hoax messages, lies, slander, gossip and deception. These messages in turn create anxiety, panic, rage, protests, violence and a whole host of problems in society. Spreading misinformation through lies, gossip, slander and deception is a major sin. The chief weapon of Dajjal (The great deceiver) will be lies, misinformation and deceit. The real challenge of the information age is to be truthful. Many of us can relate to receiving messages from well-meaning family members or friends with dubious content or that are unverified. Many of us are also guilty of forwarding such information with 'good intentions', only to find out later that the information was false and potentially disruptive. At times, Shaytan misguides people by engaging them in a 'cause' they assume to be noble but in reality causes tremendous harm by peddling false information about families, scholars, organisations and their representatives. This entails cynism, disrespect, untruths, assumptions and false information – all in the name of 'truth'. The Noble Qur'an condemns spreading information without verification. O you who believe! If an evil-doer comes to you with important news, verify it, lest you should harm people in ignorance [out of haste in belief and making decision], and afterwards you become regretful for what you have done. (Hujrat Verse 6) Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said, “Deliberation and forethought should go into everything except for deeds pertaining to the Hereafter.” (Abu Dawud) Another Hadith states: “Deliberation is from Allah and haste is from Shaytan.” (Tirmizi) May Allah Ta'ala help us to guard what we say and protect us from spreading information that is harmful.

STARKACE: The emboldened lowkey implies that what matters is not to spread false information about Islam - informations that may negatively affect Islam. But one can spread false information for the benefit of Islam & consequently against other belief systems. See the post below EkunKekere: 2 Likes |

STARKACE:So you know and attest to the fact that the Quran spread false information about Jesus right??. Once we agree on that I will answer your question. |
Re: Harms Of Spreading Misinformation, What Islam Says by STARKACE(m): 9:08am On Sep 21, 2019 |
fortran12:wrong, Quran told you the truth about who Jesus is, something the Bible never told you but you guys manufactured that he is the son of God and lord, am stick it to generations. |
Re: Harms Of Spreading Misinformation, What Islam Says by STARKACE(m): 9:12am On Sep 21, 2019 |
0balufonlll:you keep spreading false information about Islam, you misquote and add your own false opinion bout, which easily facilitate your hatred for the religion. Same thing your likes have been doing before you and you easily believe it cos it suits your hatred. You also qouted a pic posted by another Islam hatred, a simple Google would have help enlightened you bout those 2 words, but no since it suits your hatred for the religion then you go with the falsified flow. |

STARKACE: Mr wise, wasn't Mohammed responsible for the death of thousands during his lifetime? So where is the ignorance coming from? Aren't people following his words and killing today? How am I wrong? Oh I'm sorry, they're killing for allah, that makes it less of a crime and more of a holy ritual *spits on idiocy* |
Re: Harms Of Spreading Misinformation, What Islam Says by fortran12: 3:33pm On Sep 21, 2019 |
STARKACE:The truth that he is alive and Mohammed is dead right? Although Mohammed claimed that the earth will not accept his body so after he died they did not bury him immediately until he started to stink. All the Qur'an's claim about Jesus are found in false. The Qur'an came hundreds of years after the bible and your book has the original story despite the fact that non of the events in the life of Jesus took place near your prophet lived |
