With misinformation spreading rapidly, Muslims are being urged to rely on verified sources to prevent unnecessary confusion.
Social media users expressed frustration over the false claims. Assan commented, “People will share anything they see on internet without verification! Thats a simple example how people will fall for dajjal.”
Usman Nasir Danlasan added, “Subhanallah, lies are everywhere, created just for small gains. May Allah guide our faith.”
Mohammad Shafi Dar shared a critical perspective on social media itself, stating, “This (so called ) Social Media has been created to spread falsehood and hatred particularly amongst Muslims who have had ( Alhumdullillah ) been Social till this Anti-social Media was floated by Anti-Islam people.”
These reactions reflect a growing call within the community for digital responsibility, encouraging people to fact-check information before sharing it.
