Lecture Name: Fiqh of Social Media

Course description:

A Faith Based Lecture to Navigating the Social Media Lifestyle

How does social media affects our lives. How does it affect friendships, how our addiction to our phones impacts us, or how we raise our kids? There seems to be some kind of “Muslim issue” flare up on social media every few months. While these issues have always been there, social media has put a huge magnifying lens on a lot of things and we haven’t figured out how to deal with it properly.
The goal of this lecture is to shed light on these types of issues. A practical faith-based approach for our community that will hopefully provide relevant solutions to the problems we face.
We need to successfully navigate this new culture we live in. For the first time in history, we have an abundance of friendships and relationships with people we have never met. We have a generation of ‘digital natives’ growing up that have never seen a world without a smartphone or social media. We must adapt to the rapid changes around us – and the best way of doing that is falling back on the timeless principles from our own faith tradition and learn how to practically apply them in this era.
