What is the way to get rid of the habit of impersonating a girl online to communicate with young men via chat and camera?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The internet is a blessing that necessitates thanking Allah for it by using it in obedience or in permissible ways. It is preferable to use it for seeking religious knowledge, listening to the Quran, and beneficial lectures. It is obligatory to avoid using it for idle talk and sins, and for associating with bad company. To overcome a bad habit, remember Allah's constant watch over you, for He knows your secret and your private counsel. Allah Almighty said: "Do they not know that Allah knows their secret and their private counsel and that Allah is the Knower of the unseen?" Be more ashamed of Allah than you are of people. Do not be among those who show piety in front of people but violate Allah's prohibitions when alone. Seek chastity through your wife, for marriage is one of the most protective means. Schedule a permissible cultural, sports, and recreational program for yourself. Remember that on the Day of Judgment, a servant will be questioned about his life, youth, wealth, knowledge, and body. Therefore, make aversion to idle talk your motto.
