What is the ruling on working on Twitter and Instagram accounts by posting pictures of rulers and news about them?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The ruling on accounts on social media platforms that publish any material is determined by whether they lead to truth or falsehood, cause good or evil, and aid in righteousness and piety or sin and transgression. Therefore, each person should weigh the account they intend to create against what has been mentioned. If they find that it does not lead to falsehood, evil, or sin, then there is no harm in it; otherwise, there is.
