What is the ruling on following the personal accounts of some female classmates on Twitter, and is it permissible to retweet posts by girls that do not contain anything unlawful, given the presence of a personal picture that does contain something unlawful?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Following girls' accounts on social media and retweeting their posts is permissible, as long as there is no forbidden communication or the content of the tweets is not objectionable. However, if the account owner posts impermissible images, then it is not permissible to follow her or retweet her posts, because that would be assisting in the spread of sin.
