How can a sound environment of faith be provided for Muslim youth to seek knowledge and preserve their faith, in light of the scarcity of lessons and security restrictions imposed on gatherings, while avoiding reliance on the internet as an alternative?
To preserve faith and acquire knowledge, among the most important means are righteous environments and the necessity of migrating from a place where religion is not upheld to a place where faith can be preserved, alongside extensive reading on encouragement, deterrence, and the terrors of the Day of Judgment. One should also benefit from individual dawah, night prayer (qiyam al-layl), self-accountability, and useful publications, tapes, and books. Annoyances should be dealt with according to the Prophetic guidance, and one should be diligent in supplicating and reciting the prescribed remembrances (adhkar). Those who annoy committed individuals must realize that faith is the source of the Ummah's glory, success, victory, and security. Society must cooperate in acquiring faith, the wealthy should provide job opportunities for youth, and youth should take the initiative to marry. The internet can be used cautiously, and people should gather in groups to prevent deviation, in accordance with the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "Hold fast to the community, for the wolf only devours the stray sheep."
