How Muslims can use Social Media to Gain Jannah


Mufti Menk's talk emphasizes how to use social media in a way that earns rewards and leads to Paradise. He highlights the responsibility we have in using our phones and social media platforms productively.

Mufti Menk advises that when we encounter harmful or inappropriate content, we should quickly move away from it to avoid wasting time or engaging with it in any way. By doing this, we prevent harmful content from influencing us or appearing more frequently in our feeds.

He also stresses that when we come across beneficial content—whether related to faith or general knowledge—we should interact positively by liking, sharing, and commenting. This increases the reach of such content and earns us rewards from Allah.

Even after we pass away, the continued sharing and engagement with beneficial content can result in ongoing rewards, acting as a form of "sadaqah jariyah" (continuous charity).

Mufti Menk encourages us to make the most of social media to share goodness, whether it’s religious guidance or beneficial worldly advice.

By creating or interacting with positive content, we can use social media to earn rewards and move closer to Paradise. He concludes by stressing that social media, if used wisely, can be a tool for accumulating rewards and helping others.
