Asalamulaykum, How can i convince a bro that it is haram for
him to correspond via email with a sister. Even though they are in the
same school, isn't there an ayah in the quran that says something
against secrecy like that?
Wasalamuaykum Amatullah

wa alaykum as salaam wa rahmatAllah Amatullah,

Wow, no one responded to your post yet!  It's because you asked a hard question. :)

I think it's a hadeeth that states that when a man and a woman are alone together, the third one in the room is shaytan.  This means that when two people are alone together it's very easy to fall into haraam.

And you can say it's just as dangerous in email or instant messaging, because it's as if you two are alone, having this private, intimate conversation.  You're human, you have weaknesses, and Allah knows this, that's why He gave us the boundaries He has.

So unless they are discussing Islamic issues, homework, other legitimate reasons, then they should be careful.

wAllahu 'alam.

Actually i think one of the reasons no one has replied is because most of us do that.  I'll be the first to admit i do it, of course not flirting or whatever.  There is a very thin line however, if it starts getting out of hand we should excuse ourselves.  Just my humble opinion
