Is chatting with young men considered a form of marital infidelity?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
A woman's chatting with men in chat rooms for entertainment is forbidden (). The sin is greater if the woman is married, as it violates the right of the husband, who has the right that a stranger should not converse with his wife except with his permission. She must be admonished and reminded of the blessing of marriage, and that such actions can lead to the destruction of the family. If she persists, some relatives who can deter her should be informed. She can also be boycotted to make her feel the disapproval of this act, if the boycott will deter her.
