Is it permissible for a woman to use chat rooms to invite young men to Allah, knowing that this may lead to conversations (in writing) with them, and that everything that transpires between her and them is related to matters of religion and advice?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is permissible for a woman to speak with a man if she is veiled and does not soften her speech, based on the Almighty’s saying: "Then do not be soft in speech [to men], lest he in whose heart is disease should covet, but speak with appropriate words." However, to avoid falling into the unlawful and emotional inclination, it is advisable for men to invite men and women to invite women. Or, a woman may use a common pseudonym that does not reveal her gender when communicating online.
