WILL YOUR INTERNET CONNECTION DISCONNECT YOU FROM ALLAH MOST HIGH

WILL YOUR INTERNET CONNECTION DISCONNECT YOU FROM ALLAH MOST HIGH

by Mufti Zubair Bayat, South Africa

Is it sheer coincidence that the Internet and WWW (World Wide Web) contain the words ‘NET’ and ‘WEB’? Read on and work it out for yourself. Now picture a person trapped in a net, battling to get out. Also try to imagine a fly caught in a web, struggling to escape. Since the crisis is visible and tangible in the above cases, sympathy is felt and help may be rendered if required. But there is another NET, a WEB, much stronger and highly invisible, which traps its hapless ‘victim’ in such an enchanting way, the poor ‘victim’, far from wanting to escape, actually begins to enjoy and relish this ‘captivity’. Yes, this sticky WEB, this unseen NET is none other than what is called the INTERNET, its WWW and its ‘chatrooms’.
