● REMINDER: Do Not Broadcast Your Sins! ●

There are some people, whenever they did an act of Sin, they rush to post on social networks so that everyone knows about it. 

Instead of hiding and feeling guilty about that act of Sin, they feel proud to tell others about it.

By this they are earning 3 losses:

1. It’s a Sin upon Sin, firstly by doing the sin and secondly by broadcasting it.

2. They are making people as witness of their Sin and encouraging to do the same sin.

3. They are removing themselves far away from the forgiveness of Allah by broadcasting the sin instead of concealing it.

Ibn Qayyim said:

"The one who commits sin in secret is doing something less serious than one who commits sin openly and broadcasts it. The one who keeps quiet about it commits a less serious sin than one who tells people about it. Such a one is far removed from the forgiveness of Allaah, as the Prophet PBUH said: “All of my ummah may be forgiven except those who commit sin openly…”
