Social media privacy in terms of Islamic law

Today, the perception of privacy has also changed as a result of the interaction with the changing communication tools. Social media platforms, where people of all ages, languages ​​and religions can communicate easily, are the most important elements of this change. Social media platforms are becoming more and more widespread and individuals can share information about their personal lives and even their private areas. These sharings made by individuals attract people's curiosity and lead to embarrassment from time to time. Incarnation, whether with good intentions or malicious intent, is a prohibited act in Islamic Law. ​The misuse of social media platforms, which have many benefits in terms of communication, misleads the individual. To be accepted in the society, to be visible, to be appreciated, to be curious, etc. desires, desires and emotions prompt the individual to both share and follow others' posts. In order to achieve what he wants, the individual ignores the prohibitions on privacy by occasionally violating and neglecting the limits. As a result of these, both the narrowing of privacy areas and the increase of insecurity make people uneasy. In our study, we tried to evaluate them through some social media platforms.
