to report Missionary thought and culture base,The text below is a note from Hojjat al-Islam, a recitation about the necessity and how to use virtual space, which you will want to read below.
In the name of Allah, the Merciful
According to the tradition of Mehr, Hazrat Ya’qub said to his sons: “Do not enter through one door and enter through different doors” (Yusuf/67) If you are going to follow Yusuf in the city, do not enter through one door and enter through different doors. All our young people are Yusuf and if we want to have them, it cannot be entered from one way. We must use all the facilities.
Today, virtual space, networks, satellites, websites, internet and mobile phones are each a new way of communication, which is used by the general public, especially the new generation.
God says in the Holy Quran: “And we did not send a messenger except in the language of the people” (Ibrahim: 4) We did not send any prophet except in the language of his people, and today the virtual space is the language of the young generation, and they get a lot of information from this space. does
The Qur’an tells the believers: “And prepare all the tools and resources you can against the enemy” (Anfal/60). Currently, the enemy is using the tools of virtual space for cultural influence and dominance, we should also use this space to propagate and promote the culture and teachings of the Qur’an and the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them).
You suppose there is a wall in the street where anyone can stick their notice. If the religious people do not use this wall, those whose intention is to destroy and attack religion will definitely misuse this wall.
The necessity of maximum use of advanced facilities
God’s saints used every opportunity in the best way. How much have we been able to use the virtual space and not? For worship, the month of Ramadan is an opportunity, for Easter, the use of spring is an opportunity, for the revelation of the verses, the dignity of the revelation is an opportunity, and the virtual space is also for propaganda and Promoting religious education is an opportunity.
In the hadiths, we read: “Al-Farsa-e-Sari-e-Fawt-e-Batai-e-Al-Aud!” (Bihar/Vol.78/p.113) and: “Badir al-Fursa’ before you become sad” (Namah 31 of Nahj al-Balagha) The opportunity goes early and comes late and may not be obtained at all. So take advantage of it before you get sad.
We must know that science and technology cannot be opposed. When the Imam (RA) came from Paris to the paradise of Zahra (PBUH). They said: We are not against cinema, we are against bad movies. Today, virtual space is available as a tool to everyone, especially young people. A low-cost, fast, cross-border, attractive and two-way tool that is actually a good opportunity. Photo, video, audio, text, and all types of content can be sent and used in it. A situation has arisen that we must take advantage of.
One of the acts of Umrah and Hajj is Sa’i between Mount Safa and Marwah next to Masjid al-Haram, which the pilgrim must walk seven times. Before Islam, there was one idol on Mount Safa and another on Mount Marwa. At the time of the Prophet, the Muslims said: Because there are idols on these two mountains, we do not perform Sa’i. The verse was revealed that do not say that we will not go because it is an idol. Rather, go and strengthen the divine rites with your presence: “Inna al-Safa and al-Marwah are among the rites of Allah, so from Hajj al-Bayt or at-Itmar, there is no place for him to circumambulate.” Behema” (Baqarah/158)
In the virtual space, you can do both right and wrong! If scientists, university professors, scholars, scholars, culturalists, students and people of culture fill the virtual space with the truth, the presence of falsehood in this space will definitely fade.
I myself believe in this and have taken steps in this field. Currently, our friends and colleagues are trying to use the facilities of virtual space in a favorable way in order to propagate and promote Quranic teachings. There is an internet site through which books, factsheets, tapes, films and everything we have gained in these forty years of advertising are available for free to those interested. If someone from the other side of the world wants to know about Shab al-Qadr, they can look at this site to see what a reading has said about Shab al-Qadr? I have been on TV for thirty-six years, and every year on Shab al-Qadr, I talk about this night. I have done So I have thirty-six speeches for the evening.
Enemies’ goals in cyberspace
It should be noted that enemies and arrogance are currently exploiting this space with different goals:
Some people with evil intentions seek to present and promote deviant beliefs and behaviors. The Qur’an says: “And the devils are for those who follow them” (An’am: 121) Satan makes people think to do such things, and temptations are from Satan.
And some people seek to deprive the people of peace and comfort and their main goal is to create chaos in the society. By broadcasting some real and fake videos and images, they are trying to destroy the atmosphere of unity, empathy, trust and honesty between the people and the officials in order to create division and attack the religion and the system from the muddy water they create.
The Holy Qur’an says: “So bring out a body for them in a hurry, and say, ‘This is your God and God is Moses'” (Taha/88). (real) was creating; So they said (to each other): “This is your God and the God of Moses.” Yes! People like Samari, using the tools of art, glamor and noise, want to make people forget and move away from Moses.
Dos and don’ts in virtual space
Based on this, some issues should be considered to present and produce content in this complex environment. We should know what rights this space and its users have and what considerations should be taken into account. According to the Quranic verses:
The first right of the people (in cyber space) is that the information and news are provided to them in a correct and documented form, not based on speculation, insults and slander, or rumors and personal opinion. Sometimes they say: Sir, it has appeared on all the sites. All sites may be wrong.
The Qur’an says: “If a transgressor brings news, investigate” (Hujrat:6). Spreading the news without researching whether it is right or wrong is responsible. Hodhud said to Hazrat Suleiman (pbuh): “I have become aware of something that you did not know about; I have brought you a definite news from the land of Saba.
The second issue is that every content should be told to its people. Because not all people have the capacity for any content. Musa (pbuh) was the first prophet, but in the story of accompanying Khidr, he showed that he did not have the capacity and tolerance to see and hear everything. The Qur’an says that all people do not have the same capacity: “Don’t ask about things if they are too easy for you” (Ma’idah/101).
Another point is that the issues and content should be up-to-date and timely. Almost forty years ago, I read an interesting story in a book. Someone dumped the snow from his house in the neighbor’s house. The neighbor took his complaint to the court, and in the summer, he was ordered to return the dumped snow. When all the snow had melted. Drink after Sohrab’s death!
In the story of Moses’ escape from Egypt, the Qur’an says: “A man came from the city of Jesus” (Qasses/20) when Pharaoh’s court decided to arrest Moses and kill him. Someone rushed to the city and told Moses this news. If he did not come in time, Moses’ work would be finished.
The next problem is that we have to monitor the activities and movements of the enemies. Let’s see what is happening and what is being said in other sites and spaces? Let’s not ignore the enemies of religion and country. Of course, this is a property. Those who are responsible, such as the police force, the Ministry of Information, the advertising organization, districts, universities, etc.
We read in the Qur’an that when Moses’ mother put her baby in a box and threw it into the Nile, she did not leave it, but said to her daughter: “And she said to the sister of the story, you saw it from the side and they did not feel it” (Qasses/11) without Someone noticed So, follow this fund. We also have to observe everything. Many times, we learn about important issues when the work is over.
The news should be analyzed by insightful people. In this regard, the Qur’an says: “Even if there is a response to the Messenger and to the first of them, for the knowledge of those who derive it from them” (Al-Nisa’, 83) if the news of the community to the Prophet and If the leaders – who have sufficient discernment – are returned, people will be aware of the roots of the problems.
Cyber space should be healthy and not have personal love and hatred in it. The Qur’an says: “Be a witness to God, even if it is against yourself or your parents and relatives” (Nisa’: 135) Bear witness for God, even if (this testimony) is to your own detriment, or to your parents and relatives! This means that we should consider God before observing personal interests in the inclusion of news and content.
Care should be taken not to harm innocent people and not to play with people’s reputation. I have heard that pictures and videos of famous and unknown people are shared on the sites without considering the privacy of people. The Qur’an says: “Don’t punish a people because of ignorance” (Hujarat: 6).
We must be careful that the material we publish does not reflect negatively and is not misused and misused. The Qur’an says: “O you who believe, don’t talk to us, look at us and listen to us” (Baqarah: 104) O people of faith! (When you ask the Prophet for a deadline to understand the verses of the Qur’an) do not say: “Raana”; Rather, say: “It seems.” (Because the first word means both “Give us time!” and “Fortify us!”; and it is a pretext for the enemies).
Imam Sadiq (a.s.) said: If you hear something from me, compare it with the Qur’an, if it is according to the Qur’an, it is from us. If something is narrated from us that is against the Quran, do not accept it. Hadith should be researched. There are many false hadiths. When the verse was revealed that some people sacrifice their lives in the way of God: “And from the people of the soul, I seek the diseases of God” (Al-Baqarah/207), Muawiyah said, “Whoever says that this hadith is in the honor of Ibn Muljam, I will give him a reward.” They took money from Mu’awiyah and said that the verse that was revealed in honor of Hazrat Ali (AS) is about Ibn Muljam.
Virtual space should not hinder the real space. Let’s not be so busy working in this space that we neglect home and family and going to congregational and Friday prayers. Let’s know that the communication we establish with each other through the virtual space does not have the status of seeing and visiting in person and meeting face to face and the relation of love.
And the last point is that we must maintain the red line and not break the sanctities. God says about His Prophet: “Even if you say to us some of the sayings, he will take us from the right hand and then cut us off from the right hand, so what is wrong with us?” If he told us a lie, we would have taken him by force and cut his heart vein, and none of you could prevent him from (punishment)! Yes! Keeping the line of monotheism and divine and religious sanctities is so important that God’s beloved prophet is threatened with punishment because of it.
In the end, my address is to those who produce deviant issues. Those who are trying to disrupt the peace of the society and people with their evil intentions. Those who publish news in the virtual space that causes a stir in the society.
The Qur’an has ordered severe treatment of these people, and in the final verses of Surah Al-Ahzab, it says: We will grieve you with them, then we will not help you in it except for a little. “Allah is among those who are free before (PBUH), and the Sunnah of Allah is not changed” (Ahzab: 60-62) If the hypocrites and the sick of heart and those who spread false news and baseless rumors in Madinah do not stop their work, you will be against them. We are in need and they cannot stay with you in this city except for a short time! They will be rejected from everywhere and wherever they are found, they will be arrested and will receive the most severe punishment! This is the Sunnah of God in the previous nations and you will not find any change for the Sunnah of God!
Yes! People have the right to live in peace. If someone causes an earthquake in the society by publishing a poem, satire, cartoon or movie in the virtual space, God has planned for these people the punishment of rejection and exile at the beginning, and at the higher stages, arrest and imprisonment, and in some cases even murder. The end of the verse says: This has happened in other religions as well. This means that this law is not only for Islam. Every government makes it difficult to deal with the person or people who endanger the safety of the society.
