Do you delete girls from your facebook account ?

Assalam alakum

This is especially to brothers


I wonder, if you delete and prefer not to add girls who put on ''half naked'' or attractive (depends on person, but mainly if she puts herself on profile picture, its mostly attractive somehow) photos on their facebook profile pictures ? I know sometimes they also add many other ''bad...'' photos to their albumbs, but we are mostly forced to see their profile pictures somehow.

Or do you keep them and try to be patient not to be tempted, so that maybe you can have a good effect in their life somehow maybe now maybe in future. Maybe they will ask you sth about islam in future or maybe they will see a post and be interested in. (Am i becoming too unrealistic ?))

Because in one hand, if you delete, block them, maybe because of your low self control, you will abstain from giving message of Islam ?

But in other hand, everytime you see a photo, it hits your heart and it might cause something bad in future...you know...

'Especially to the brothers' - but I'll just quickly say that it is of a higher priority for you to protect your own Islam before trying to bring others to it, it is simply wrong to see those pictures so you should definitely delete them. The haraam doesn't become permissible just because you intend to do da'wah.

E.g. You can't stroll into a pub and pull up a chair next to a group of drunk people even though they clearly are in need of da'wah, right?

Don't think about it twice, it's Ramadaan and a good time to do it, go ahead and delete.

Wa-alaykum assalam

Da'wah can be given without adding girls as friends. That's what I believe. Personally, I have not seen half-naked profile pictures in the Islamic Groups or even in the other religious groups. Anyway, you can disable loading pictures in your browser. This could be a good solution. But the best thing you can do is leave this whole matter to the knowledgeable Muslim sisters. I mean it will be suitable if the knowledgeable Muslims sisters send the message of Islam to those girls with half-naked profile pictures. We males should stay out of such girls and ask for help from our pious sisters instead.

Hope I was able to clarify.

dear Hopetogotoparadis
wa alaykkum assalaam wa rahmatullah,

the bro said it all... muslim sisters are there for a reason. don't interfere with their duties.

moreover, if guidance is written for them, it will reach them. and we can get our share of reward by doing dawah to non muslim males... poor guys need islaam too...
