Question:
Your Eminence the Shaykh, this is a question from a student at the Institute of Islamic Studies in 'Arar. He says: Some young men frequent suspicious social media websites under the pretext of learning the rulings of the Shari'ah. What is Your Eminence's guidance regarding this?

Answer:
Yes, the Shari'ah and the religion are not taken from the networks; rather, they are taken from the authentic sources, from the Book and the Sunnah, and from the firmly grounded scholars. or So the matter is referred to the scholars in affairs of religion, and to the rulers in affairs of politics. The rulers of the Muslims are the ones to whom the matter is referred in affairs of politics and leadership, whereas in affairs of religion, the people of authority are the scholars, and this problem is referred to them.
